BLOG 8

My checklist:

Check my stereotypes at the door - if they happen to fall into them, that's fine, but don't go into it thinking that.
Remember that each person went to a different school, had a different set of teachers, and has a different brain - which all affect their learning.
See the student in action before judging their ability - no skin color, age, or personality type determines intelligence - only their ability does - and even then, ability does not go as far as to say what you'll get from them - drive is majorly important.

I'm sorry this is a short blog. I wish I had more to say on the topic than I do. :( I'll think more on it and add it to a later post. Sometimes I find it hard to write on a topic because it just, I don't know, it doesn't flow. As I think on it over the weekened, hopefully, it'll come together. That'll be an aspect of my tutoring I'll have to work on. There'll be times I don't feel like writing, or maybe understand the material particularly well (which is particularly unmotivating for me), but I'll still have to - I'll have to push myself as hard as I can. I won't have a choice in my career of TV/comic writer - it's not a luxury I'll have - so best I learn how now....and just skimp on a blog that I will catch up on later. Really sorry if this is letting anyone down. I know how many million read my blogs and how much they look forward to it. That's the problem with being a world famous bloggerist. You begin to have a fanbase, one that is so damanding, who just attack you over it. When I got started with my first blog, for Creative Non-Fiction, little did I know the celebrity I would become.

Before I knew it, it'd be a whirlwind of a semester - parties, concerts, benefits for babies born with (insert limb here), the White Party on Fire Island - and from then I knew I was changed. I won Best Blog by a Leading Blogist at the Bloggy Awards (I know, I know, I promsed I wasn't going to bring it up, but I couldn't help it - it means a lot to me). As my blogs progressed (last semester's award winning piece on Queen Shaxis of the Neurpton Galaxy), I just fell further and further into it. That was nothing compared to when Blogbra Walters and I sat down for our blogterview, which was truly the highlight of my blogeerer, and I knew I'd made it.

So I'm sure my fans look forward to reading my blog as much as I look forward to writing it. Final words of wisdom? Always wear clean underwear and never be racist in a tutoring center.
