For once a week, I am given the opportunity to provide a helping hand and act as a citizenship tutor at John XXIII. This is not my first time tutoring; I was also a tutor for Project SHINE last semester but I was working for a different site. Both sites have the same main purpose--to be able to lend a helping hand to the elderly in any way possible. However, being able to assist the elderly pass their citizenship exam has given me such an accomplishing feeling. Most importantly, it gives me a fuel of energy witnessing how eager they are to learn everyday, and how thankful they are that there are people willing to be there for them.
