Tutoring is an Investment

I had an experience this past weekend that I'd like to share with those that follow my blog here.  I was reminded of how tutoring is an investment.  Tutoring is an investment of a student's and family's time, effort, and money.  One of my long time students recently informed me that they got admitted into all the top schools: U of M, MSU, Stanford, and many more. Not only that, but they were admitted with sizable scholarships too!  They decided upon a school that provided them with a full scholarship including books, a computer, and admittance into the medical scholar program(meaning that they were already admitted and guaranteed their seat in medical school).  They were very committed to the tutoring and their efforts and investment really paid off.  His mother informed me that I played a big part in her student's success and it was nice to hear such a nice compliment.
