There was about fifteen minutes lift while six of the twelve questions where filled out. All of the sudden the teacher called "Alex!". He got up slowly having a scared look in his face. "I've been watching you take this test. And you don't look so good, is everything okay?" Asked the teacher. "I didn't get what you where teaching and my parents don't have time to help me with homework." Said Alex quietly. The teacher suggested a tutor and told him to bring her the test. He went back to his desk, grabbed me and took me to her. She took me from his hand and looked at me closely. She said that he didn't get any of the six questions right and recommend Alex a tutor.
The next week there I was still sitting on the teachers desk. The teacher asked if Alex had gotten a tutor and he said yes. She asked "Do you think you are ready to take the test?". And Alex said "I think so, I feel pretty confident.". She handed me to him and he sat down at his desk. He slowly lifted his pencil and began working. Twenty five minutes went by and Alex was done. He headed over to the teachers desk holding me tightly and handed me over to the teacher.
The next day I was given to Alex and he had a happy look on his face and he seemed very confident. He took me home and showed me to his parents and they congratulated him. It seemed to me that having a tutor really can positively imapact a students education.
Splish Splash
Water swaying all around
My heart begins to quickly pound
Seconds left to finish strong
Swimming's like a rythmic song
Using the strength left in my bones
Water crashed on me like stones
I swam as if it was my last Olympic meet
Kicking as hard as I can with my feet
Almost finished and so close to winning
My head going crazy and constantly spinning
Splish splash as the water travels
As I touch the wall my mind unravels
why they are a hero to me
They both are very strong. Susan is always willing to help me and she never gave up on trying to assist me. Michael Jordan is someone that I always looked up to because he's so strong and brave and he is so inspiring to me.
I want to thank them both.
