This session was really interesting and I would like to share it with everyone. On a regular Sunday night, after 3 appointments, I decided to walk around in the library while I sipped my cup of water. In no time, I noticed a blonde girl banging her head on her own table and then walking from place-to-place begging people to proof read her essay for her WRA class. I walked over to the student, Janet – short for JJ or Janey, and asked her to over the Center station so we, the consultants, could heal her wounds. She signed in and began reading her essay, ‘Along the shores of Gitchee Gumee’ a memoire. Overall, the essay sounded PERFECT! However, there were a few phrases and lines that were vague. I questioned JJ and my minimalist tutoring skills truly unveiled the best from her. Even though I did not directly help the client, I saw that the ways in which she helped herself raised her self esteem and she left the Center smiling {like this } ‘=)’ Below, I have attached a note from Janet, which acts as a testament to the positivity of our Center’s policies.
“Dear Trixie,
Your employee Krish abused me and harassed me until he ‘convinced’ me to come and get my PERSONAL writing edited. He continued to make fun of me and he told me I was stupid for thinking my dad and grandfather could have possibly been in the same picture frame. Please reconsider his employment. He just abused me again I write this!
JUST KIDDING! HE HELPED A LOT. Thanks!”
