In Missouri there is a program that Highschool students can join, it's called A+. If you complete all the requierments the state will pay your tuition for your first two years to any community college in the state. To be elligble you must maintain a 2.5 GPA, do 50 hours of tutoring, and be signed up for it for 3 years.
I am in this program so over the summer I A+ tutored a first grade review summer school class. We did a little bit of math but we mainly worked on reading and comprehension with the kids. I spent about 4 and a half hours four days a week tutoring. There were 2 sessions the first was one and a half hours long and the second was two hours long. The second session always went smoother because we already knew what didn't work well with the first session, so we didn't do it again, and we lunch.
It was a lot of fun and since I need to complete 4 more hours I will probably do it again next year.
