My church also hosts a free homework help center on Wednesday nights for my town and the surrounding communities. I've taught in summer school and in after school programs too.

I've done many jobs in my life (milking cows, counseling the unemployed, supervising summer work crews, guiding trail rides...) and, oddly enough, they all involved teaching in some way.
