This week started with uncertainty. My student was a no-show, my phone calls to his mother weren't answered and neither were the emails I sent. I decided to make a home visit and found my student there, but not his mother. Thankfully big sister called mom, and I was allowed to pick and drop him home for his make-up session. I'm glad I hung in there, I really thought that they didn't want to participate anymore, but I'm grateful that I was able to reach out to his mother and that everything turned out fine! I just reminded him about Thursdays' session! Can't wait to see Team MAGEC and all our students!
Wow. Sometimes we need to go that extra distance. Good idea to make a home visit. Glad that your day turned out productive.
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome persistence! Good job. I'm not sure I would have made the house call. You've set the bar high. Great work.
ReplyDeleteGoing the extra distance! It must be disappointing to feel that your student's family might not be taking advantage of this great opportunity, but I'm glad that you're staying positive. It's just a few more weeks. Let's hope we can all make it to session 10!
