After waiting over an hour for the bus, I successfully made it to tutoring at Carrboro High today (I'll never understand the bus system)! I started the AVID program, and I have to say that I really love it. It was nice to have one on one time with another student, and the atmosphere was really laid back.
While at the school, I helped out a senior who was working on her college applications. I can remember being in that same position not even a year ago! So stressful! I enjoyed talking to her about her college goals and giving out some helpful advice while we worked on some of her essays together. Being the same age as her seemed to be to my advantage thankfully.
It was an amazing experience, and I am definitely looking forward to working with other students throughout the semester. Plus my host teacher is awesome! She offered to drive me to the grocery store if I needed it...who does that?

I am so happy everything went well for you!! ...and I don't think I'll ever get the hang of the bus system either. I am really glad that being close in age isn't becoming an obstacle for you, and instead its helping you relate to your students more.
