I used to work in high schools as a tutor for a program called AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination), which helped at-risk kids get into four-year universities. I was in it as a kid, as were my older sisters, and my brother was in it, too. Being a tutor was fun, and even though I realized that being an educator wasn't for me, I still had a great time.I did come to notice, though, that the question of my age came up A LOT among the students, and a lot of them figured that I was probably a 30 year old divorcee. Probably because I am irritable and bearded?

You secretly are a 45 year old posing as a 21 year old, we all know that
ReplyDeleteWhat really struck me wasn't that they thought I was old (I do look middle-aged), but that they assumed I'd be divorced. I guess I just look disenchanted?
