Recently I did 3g mentoring for school. This is where I travel to an elementary or
middle school to “mentor” a student. I say “mentor” because I wouldn’t really call it
mentoring. I went to ACE elementary and this is where I mentored my mentee every
other Wednesday. All right I’ll stop saying, mentor. Anyway, I would go to ACE and just
play on the playground with kids that had trouble making friends. I would talk to them
about what they did in school and try to be friends with them. They would talk to me
about their home lives, most being pretty hard, and after a few visits, I began to realize
that I got more out of the visits than the kids did. I learned that I am good with kids but
I definitely don’t want to go into a profession with it. I really don’t know how you do
it, Mr. Logsdon.
