-----------------------------------OVERVIEW--------------------------------

          For my project, I volunteered with students from middle schools in the area, particularly Canyon View Middle School. During my volunteering experience we met twice-a-week after school. During this time the students were provided with activities, treats, and additional help with their homework. Students generally struggled with the new math concepts and just needed somebody to reinforce the teaching to help solidify the concepts. I was able to help a group of students with different subjects of homework.

 

            This project allowed students to get their homework done on time, have somebody to motivate them, and show them the steps to some of the difficult concepts that their parents may not have understood. My project lasted for one semester and we generally met twice-a-week with a day in between our meetings. The meetings lasted 2.5 hours each time, so I had 5 hours of mentoring per week. Once-a-week the students showed their grades to the mentors, allowing the mentors to see where improvements were needed.
