Please watch the brief video on Elijah Miles, a special Cristo Rey student (who is now a sophomore in college, giving TED talks), who through experience and strong emotion, redefined what it means to teach and serve with meaning. Please respond, after watching the video, with a short commentary, expressing your thoughts on how you can craft your tutoring/mentoring to better accommodate our students.
Elijah had a bad temper (I was his classmate a few years ago), but instead of "giving up" on him or becoming frustrated, his teachers supported him, nurtured him, and crafted a new approach to Elijah and both he and his teachers are proud of his successes.
