#After School Tutors

[ravelights]

after Reading the latest chapter for Spy X family one thing I noted was when reading of all of Demetrius list of achievements the first thing listed off was the highest scorer in math's.

Which was the subject that Anya failed so bad she got a bolt for.

Which makes me wounder if in the future it might be possible that Demetrius might have to tutor Anya in math's at some point.

[frobby]

one of my favorite senarios to imagine to put yukio in is sending him 10 years into the future (with the exwires usually) and everyone from their class are like chill adults including himself working their boring ass exorcist job and hes trying to assert dominance over them as the teacher™ but they're all like bro why so serious?

Someone pissed me off a couple of days ago

So! Below are several links to programs and foundations that promote adult literacy! Hundreds of millions of adults world wide were failed by their education system and now must fend for themselves while trying to read contracts and hospital bills and infographics from the CDC. But they don't have to be alone, and it is never too late to learn!

ProLiteracy: A network of educators, researchers, and advocates which provides research reports, learning materials, and other support to adult education programs. They assist with connecting volunteers to local programs and provide guidance and support to community leaders trying to use their programs' findings to advocate for social and political change.

Adult Literacy League: An adult education program in Central Florida, which aims to provide students with one on one attention to foster growth and confidence. It also offers English Second Language courses and job skills training, and each new student receives a comprehensive assessment to determine the best plan for them.

Saint Vincent and Sarah Fisher Center's Foundational Skills Program: A 100% free adult education program aimed at adults reading below a fifth grade level. It operates year round and is either in person or remote, and they now have a GED testing center that is open to students and the public alike.

Washtenaw Literacy: A free network of trained tutors for adults in Washtenaw County, Michigan.

Adult Learning Program (Las Vegas/Clark County): Free education classes to those lacking a high school diploma, those seeking to learn ESL, and adults who read below an eighth grade level. Also assists in students' search for gainful employment. Nevada got so fucked by COVID and the education/literacy numbers in the South West are grim. Please help these guys.

Hawaii Literacy: In addition to helping adult residents of Hawaii Island learn to read and write AND bridging the education gap in Hawaii's underserved children, they offer computer literacy classes, ESL classes, and a bookmobile. 1 in 6 Hawaiian adults struggle to read and write.

just a reminder that you can call your reps everyday and leave voice messages outside of office hours! calls usually go to congressional staffers if not interns who tally up the amount of calls made for which specific issues. these numbers are then passed along to the representative in question. don’t worry abt how you sound, you don’t need to persuade anyone over the phone. this is a numbers game, so the more calls you can make, the more that tally goes up. it takes no time, none of my calls even go for a minute, just makes sure you speak clearly so they know which issue to count for

the scripts i’ve been using have been collected from other ppl who have made calls or simplified from email scripts. they’re geared towards ppl in the US, but your call can be as simple and straightforward as asking for a ceasefire in gaza:

“Hi, I’d like to leave a comment with [representative] to say that I strongly oppose the US’s relations with Israel and stand strongly with Palestine, and I’m asking that [representative] do the same. I urge [him/her] to vote FOR House Resolution 786 and AGAINST any bill that supports Israel, and I will be basing my vote in the upcoming elections on how [he/she] chooses to proceed.”

“Hi, I noticed that [representative] is cosponsoring the Israel Supplemental Appropriations Act, and I do not support my taxpayer money aiding in Israel’s occupation of Palestine. So I strongly urge that [he/she] reevaluates and conditions this assistance to prevent anymore human rights violations.”

“I’m calling because I noticed that [representative] is standing with Israel, and I just wanted to say that I don’t support my taxpayer money aiding in Israel’s occupation of Palestine. Our priority should be preventing Israel from causing anymore destruction to Palestine, and I hope [he/she] stands with Cori Bush’s Ceasefire Now Act.”

“I’m calling in from [my district] abt House Resolution 768: The Extreme Risk Protection Order Expansion Act. I noticed that [representative] is NOT a cosponsor of this resolution. If that’s true, I just wanted to pass along my support and hope that [he/she] votes against HR 768 with how it stands by Israel.” (you can check on govtrack.us)

“Hi, I would like to urge [representative] to stand with Palestine and to defund Israel. I hope [he/she] votes NO to house resolution 768 and YES to house resolution 786.”

“Hi, I noticed that [representative] is pushing for an act that will prevent all aid from reaching Gaza, and I’m horrified that this decision is even being introduced. I urge [representative] to reevaluate [his/her] priorities and recognize that Palestine is who we need to stand with, not Israel.”

“Hi, I’m calling abt the upcoming negotiations for a 5-day ceasefire in Gaza that will allow aid to pass through, and I strongly urge [representative] to support this decision.”

“I’d like to voice my concern for [representative’s] support for Israel and ask that [he/she] cosponsor Cori Bush’s Ceasefire Now Resolution and OPPOSE the $14.6 billion in weapons aid to Israel.”

Nothing is worse than if I come across an excellent summarised fic with sexy ass tags and then the first line is a clunky, grammatically off sentence that we're taught in high school on how to avoid

thinking about delinquent tobio and student council president tooru AU…… even tho I have other stuff to finish….. the temptation

[smilemuse]

he has everything going for him: good looks, popularity, grades, student council vice president, & the fangirls to boot. there are times when yoshida wishes he were invisible, blending into the background with ease. however, this was a different task instead one that the teacher had entrusted him with. yoshida's not sure how someone can have that low of a gpa, but he's trying not to be too judgmental.  ❛ are you even paying attention? ❜ he chimes in as he looks at the other boy. everything about him screamed like he was ready to drop out.

purple bangs fray into the edges of his vision but he makes the moment to sit down across from him. they aren't equals by any means & he can feel the stares of the rest of the students. there whispers are birds chirping.  ❛ denji, what are you actually looking at?❜ this time a smile threatens the frays of his mouth, he sees the peep of a magazine from the textbook.  ❛ i'll put it in the shredder. ❜

Homework in the clubroom

LIST OF CHAPTERS

[Translation under the cut]

Saya: Whoa~…Oh, it's already 11 o'clock. Did I sleep that much?

Saya: (Maybe I'm a little slack because we haven't had any club activities lately)

Saya: (Come to think of it, I still have a bit of homework left to do)

Saya: (Summer vacation is almost over, so I should finish it today)

Saya: (…I thought I'd come to the library, but it's pretty crowded here)

Saya: (It doesn't look like there are any free seats either. Maybe I should borrow a key and go to the club room…)

Saya: (Here I can concentrate! I hope to finish it by the evening)

Saya: (Alright, let's do my best!)

*A few moments later*

Saya: ….

Saya: (Yup. I guess the half is done)

Saya: (At this pace I'll be done by the end of the day)

*A little longer than a few minutes later...*

Saya: Ugh…

Saya: (I think I'm almost done, but…)

Saya: (What should I do…Maybe I should skip it and do the next problem?)

Munakata: Oya, hello. Is it a summer vacation homework?

Saya: Ah, senpai. Hello.

Munakata: …Is it math cubic functions? So nostalgic.

Saya: (I'm sure senpai can solve this problem in no time)

Munakata: Could it be that you have stopped because you can't solve the problem?

Saya: !!

Saya: That's true. How did you know?

Munakata: Don't be so surprised, it's written all over your face.

Would you like me to explain it to you?

Saya: Eh! But…

Saya: (Surely if I ask Munakata-senpai, I'll understand it right away)

Saya: I appreciate the gesture, but I want to do the best I can on my own.

Munakata: I see…

Saya: Sorry that I made you ask me if you can help.

Munakata: No. It's not good if you have to rely on me right away.

Munakata: However, if you still can't figure it out, I will explain it to you.

Saya: By the way, what are you doing in the clubroom, senpai?

Munakata: I got a new jigsaw puzzle and I thought I'd concentrate on it in the quiet of the clubroom.

Saya: Whoa, another lovely pattern.

Munakata: Yeah, I bought it at first sight. …By the way, if you don't get back on track soon, it will be dark soon.

Saya: Oh, you're right!

Saya: (Well…Let's do it!)

*Soon after*

Saya: (I managed to figure out the previous question somehow, but I stumbled again)

Saya: (I guess I should be honest here and ask Munakata-senpai after all…)

Munakata: …

Saya: (It's no good to take advantage of Munakata-senpai, I better to think of a solution more)

Saya: (Munakata-senpai liked that kind of attitude of mine and allowed me to join the Blue club)

Saya: (I mustn't disappoint him…)

*Later that evening...*

Saya: (Somehow the heat is making me sleepy…but I'm almost solve it)

Saya: (Let's draw another graphic….No good. I can't keep my eyes open)

Saya: …

Saya: …

Saya: Ah…What…I…

Saya: I see, I fell asleep doing my homework!)

Saya: (What should I do…)

Saya: (Munakata-senpai is not here. I guess he already left)

Saya: (But the jigsaw puzzle is still there where he left it)

Saya: Ah…There's a note.

Saya: (…It's a hint on how to solve the problem. Written in Munakata-senpai's handwriting…)

Munakata: [I'm in the President's office. Please call me when you're done so I can close the door]

Saya: (Thank you, senpai. Let's work a bit longer!)
