During March, for all the good reasons, and because March is a truly wonderful month; I took part in the Leo Club's Leo Mission 3. It was my last semester in INTI-UC. With public speaking tutorials which comes almost weekly, a US history trial, and various other assignments, I had a very busy semester. I have been a member of the LEO Club in INTI-UC since my first semester there, but I could barely find the time to take part in any of their events, except the blood donation drives, which are organised, almost,once per semester.
So, for three Sunday afternoons , on the 8, 15 and 22 of March, I was a tutor for the kids from the House of Joy in Puchong. Actually, each of the tutors are assigned to a kid, whom, the tutor would focus on teaching. Like Edward, in the photo below.
Teaching kids, is not as easy as it seems. It requires more than the knowledge but a combination of various skills.
With a combination of determination, perseverance and creativity, hopefully, you would be able to reach out to the kid.
But, apparently, some people are adept in handling kids, while others would have to give more effort towards understanding the kids. What more to say, when one have to teach them.

And of course, the main character.
Being part of this event, meant less time spend on studying; but it was nevertheless a good experience, as you get to learn other lessons, not found in your everyday, academic text book.
In this endless march towards our own zenith point, sometimes, it's important to reflect and remember how lucky we are.
