Today was the last day of SAT tutoring. I met with the Juniors for three hours after school for the last time before their test. They will be taking the test on Saturday and I am guessing they won't have their results for a few weeks after. We administer the test here, but once it is complete, we have to ship all the tests and supplies back to the States which I imagine will take some time.
I have to say that I am impressed by the amount of studying this class has done. They have taken it upon themselves to meet when I couldn't and they ended up meeting again on Friday to study one last time. One of the other teachers, Cara, had been meeting with them as well to cover all other sections besides math. I am hopeful that they will do well.
About Me

- I have created this blog to share the stories of my trip to Haiti as a missionary at Sonlight Ministries as I will be teaching Algebra, Geometry, Adv. Math as well as 6th grade math. Sonlight Ministries was started by Roger and Norma Alexander in 1985 after their second year in Haiti. Before moving to Haiti I have visited four times on one week trips to volunteer with anything that was needed. This mainly consisted of construction work as groups from my church, WRCC, have helped build a new multipurpose building for Sonlight which will be called SonCenter. Construction isn’t the only type of work. Some like to spend time in the classrooms interacting with the students as teachers aides or sitting in the hall with a student one-on-one to help with grammar, math, etc. Groups have also helped with numerous tasks such as painting inside houses, outside houses, and rooftops. If you enjoy helping others and would ever consider visiting please let me know; it is a life changing experience.
