You ha...With my teacher hat on....You are a writer! You have earned your money because you are an expert in your feild....Don't feel guilty feel empowered....because they came to you- not a reliever teacher to do extension language work. It shows smart thinking on their part.<BR/>I tutor, in school, a gifted intemediate child in writing and she stretches me...my payment is in time towards keeping my registration current... while I'm not currently teaching. <BR/>It would be nice to get paid for it but in conscience I couldn't because baby comes with me and trys to graffiti the staff room while I'm challenging the child to write better/ smarter and stop showing off vast vocab. <BR/>Have fun with the kids...you will learn heaps! <BR/><BR/>Love the monster query letter!<BR/>I will make a note of your comments re setting a fee...as I am co convening (with Fi) the conference next year.<BR/><BR/>Have a positive week....I've got to clean... mother in law is coming to stay....<BR/>maureenMaureen Crisphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14904288094197645416noreply@blogger.com
