RE: A Tutor's Tale Part 1: Acceptance and Rejection
Such a tough job and I cannot imagine trying to give advice to a child that age. Ugh.
My total non-teacher instinct is that her just knowing you are there to listen, will help her so much. Not giving advice and just being there so when she is ready to make a move you will be by her side. That would be so very special to a young lady. I know I would have loved that for myself!
That is one solid advice there, @eaglespirit. I will remember to listen more and speak lesser unless they are asking me for answers. Thanks for the reminder and for coming by! Not easy growing up as a young lady but I am sure it will sum up for her character in the future! :)
Oh no, I hope you do not think I was telling you what to do. It is a hard job and one that I can only imagine doing, not one I would do. My support is with you and I can only wish you the best. I know you are working hard and thank you for sharing your experience.
Yes, it is not easy being a girl. How about writing poetry or her stories in a book? Her overcoming and seeing herself for who she is? I just saw a piece of poetry by a young girl of 12 years old that overcame bullying by looking at herself in the mirror and telling herself how beautiful she is ... how amazing is that??
I can share the post with you if you like? It was a fellow group member's daughter.
Hahaha no worries @eaglespirit. I appreciate every piece of advice for me to be better in this area. After all, more minds would help me to help them in some ways, totally cool with it :)
I think I came across the same poem too. Is it the poem by the daughter of @derangedvisions? I included her poem in the part 2 which was about beauty, actually. I was so impressed by her realization at her age that I have to highlight her beauty! I too came across her poem because of the group @steemmamas :)
Thanks so much @eaglespirit. I too read from you and am inspired by you :)
Yes! That’s the one! I saw it bc he’s in one of my groups and encouraged him to enter the contest. I’m so glad he did bc thatctype if courage is important for all young girls and women in general.
Thank you for reading.
Blessings,
