my mental meanderings...

disappointment, frustration, etc...

Remember the student I had been tutoring at Oak Grove? Well she was out sick last week and then this week she didn't show up for school. So, I just found out that she has left Oak Grove and is now living with her father in another city. Just when I thought I finally got a good student who doesn't flake on me, she leaves the city...arg.

Four months of investment in this student and I won't ever get to see if she passes her geometry class with a decent grade. Now I will have to go through the trials and tribulations of getting a new student. Will s/he flake on me? How much of the material covered so far this year does this student understand and still retain? How much review will I have to do with the student before I can move on to the current material? Is there enough time left in the school year to help this student pass the class?
