I have a part-time job as a tutor now. I'm often teaching kids anything they need help with for middle school and high school. Recently though I started teaching a first grader that's been struggling how to read.
He's always asking a lot of questions about how things work and why things are the way they are. This last Saturday, he asked me if I like sports.
"Not really... I am what people call nerdy. Do you know what that means?"
He didn't so I told him about comic books, board games, theatre and anything else that I could think of that I like. I even was able to tell him the name of all the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on his shirt.
He got really quiet... "That sounds better than sports," he finally said.
Sometimes I do love that job....
