Yes - but the ones I get asked to tutor are often having problems because of the way they are being raised. It is very hard to deal with when the parents can't hear what you are saying that might help at home. And I have physical limits that make it exhausting sometimes.

Ah, I see. That must be very difficult to deal with.

The little ones are adorable Angie, but different people just like different age groups.
I could never spend a whole day with little ones. They're too dependent for me, but that's just me.

You can tell a class of high school students that they're annoying you and had better keep the noise down. You can't do that to little ones! They'll cry if you tell them they're annoying you.

I love when I have the middle schoolers with special needs - they are so excited about life!

I am just getting crotchety lately - too many things on my plate. Plus my expectations of myself with small fry are pretty big - I loved having gangs of kids at our house all the time - but I can't do it anymore.

But it's the high school kids who cheat and the college kids who don't care that really get me down.

Now I am more established in this field I can pick and choose my students sometimes - such a treat.

So as an update on Illiad, it sends the article or book to your electronically. It looks like it's just been scanned in as a pdf rather than actually typed into a pdf so you can't search for specific words or copy/paste text, but still, you have the article you need in only 3 days! It worked very well!

Thanks Angie. I bookmarked it for later.

I'm going to try it now, to see if a non-student can use it. :)
