Opposing Arguments

Organized learning materials before my GED student arrived via Microsoft Teams. Currently we’re exploring ways to represent opposing arguments. Google Docs is turning out to be an excellent tool as it makes it possible for us to edit a document simultaneously.

Language

Swore when I knocked a mug of coffee onto the keyboard while tutoring a student online. It could’ve been worse: I said sh#$ rather than f&$#, and the keyboard still works.

Focus on a Better Future

As anger spills over in Minneapolis, I’m focusing on my small contribution for a better future. A GED (high school equivalency diploma) text, the size of a phone book, arrived in the mail. I’ll tutor an adult non-native speaker online.

Teaching

Students called me “teacher.” My best title, ever.

Building New Lives

Cycled to my weekly gig in this building. A hundred years ago Swedes and Norwegians came here to learn. Today, Somalis follow in their footsteps.
