Tutor Angelia Shields and Chenel Moore
My math student, Chenel Moore, went to Anne Arundel Community College today and registered for College Algebra. That was the goal that Chenel and I set – keeping in mind that she had to be algebra-ready to take the class and feel confident that she could do well in it.
We’ve spent hours at Glen Burnie Library and Panera Bread-Glen Burnie preparing for this moment. While we were preparing, we formed a wonderful friendship where she knows that I have her back, not just with math, but with anything. And, I told her in the very beginning that she will say math is fun when we are done, so we’re working toward that goal. We had some goal-based incentives we reached and we celebrated when we reached them. She’ll be confident and prepared. It was a huge step for her to pay that money today and have confidence in herself to register.
