I have no interest in becoming a teacher nor work in the school district. Nothing against the kids, but not interested in the beauracracy   (Spelling) of our school system. If anything, this entire experience has pushed me to decide what I want to do with the rest of my life, and I've decided to use the rest of my GI Bill and go to Law school. Once I graduate and pass the bar exam, I intend to practice law out of my own home and help people with immigration and tax law, and business litigation. I'll work out of my own home so I don't have to drive and I'll see people on an appt base only - this will help me be gainfully employed and not jeopardize my health further. ]]> 2019-12-03 22:47:13 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuffin_lb/zthsg9vvjpc6/wish/419374112 https://padlet.com/ebuffin_lb/zthsg9vvjpc6/wish/419374211 Q3 - My passion gets sparked every time a student is excited to do an activity with me, or they even want to do more than what I asked them to do.]]> 2019-12-03 22:47:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuffin_lb/zthsg9vvjpc6/wish/419374211 https://padlet.com/ebuffin_lb/zthsg9vvjpc6/wish/419374214 3Q- I love kids and tutoring made me realize that I want to work with kids somehow  ]]> 2019-12-03 22:47:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuffin_lb/zthsg9vvjpc6/wish/419374214 https://padlet.com/ebuffin_lb/zthsg9vvjpc6/wish/419374425 The students make this job so rewarding]]> 2019-12-03 22:48:17 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuffin_lb/zthsg9vvjpc6/wish/419374425 https://padlet.com/ebuffin_lb/zthsg9vvjpc6/wish/419374598 allowing the students to ask me to solve problems with them helps us connect with each other]]> 2019-12-03 22:48:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ebuffin_lb/zthsg9vvjpc6/wish/419374598 https://padlet.com/ebuffin_lb/zthsg9vvjpc6/wish/419374829 3.
