I keep so busy that sometimes I forget to sit down and relax a little. My body definitely deserves it. I've recently picked up a second job outside of teaching, and I am also very excited to announce that I will be volunteering at an awesome non profit organization called Horsin' Around. Horsin' Around offers therapeutic riding for children with physical and mental special needs. It's amazing! I had never heard of something like this before, and being the person that is always trying to serve and help others, I couldn't resist such an amazing opportunity. I love horses and I love kids, so this is ideal and perfect! Since the last time, I have also been working on my "Raising the Bar" tutoring project. I have made a flier and have started to spread word about the wonderful things I plan to do with children to help elevate their academic achievements. I have been getting a great deal of support from friends and family, something that I value wholeheartedly. I even have some teacher friends who have various types of credentials and specialty degrees, that are offering their time to help with tutoring kids in the community as well. Can't wait to see how it continues to grow and take off from here. Since I am so busy, I have created a new Instagram page for the teaching and tutoring side of my life. I hope that I can gain more support, inspiration, and ideas through this medium. My account name is @raisingthebar4kids, so please please follow me and I'll definitely follow back.
I am just SO happy!! 2014 is off to great start! :)
