I loved it. It involved driving and meeting grade school students and their parents. i tutored them and delivered learning material.
What I wish was different
I can't really think about many but one and that is that it was in the summer and it was extremely hot.
Advice
You really have to be self motivated to be able to complete your assigned tasks. It can be a lot of work however, it is doable if you manage your time.

What I liked
I like working with kids. I like keeping them on track.
What I wish was different
No Covid, Covid made it tricky. We had to change the way we work with the kids.
Advice
If you could get a summer job doing summer school, take it. It keeps the kids from forgetting to much during their time off.

What I liked
Being able to work one-on-one with students in the classroom, and being surrounded by cultures different than my own.
What I wish was different
I wish there had been more organization in the program, but I understand that there are always new faces showing up which makes it difficult to organize.
Advice
To go into the experience with an open mind and to be ready to learn from students!
