Jeremiah 29:11 and Me

Anatomy Tutor

A couple of people from my class approached me about making a small study group so I could explain the Anatomy and physiology to them. We studied for an hour the other day...Today they came to me and said they understood everything so well. It finally made sense to them! We studied again after school for an hour and 2 more people showed up.

Now, I'm not saying this to toot my own horn. Its a good thing. I used to be so worried about being thought as the know it all. So I played dumb. I wouldn't explain it but very briefly and usually act like I really didn't know what I was talking about. This time, I used methods that I know help me. I used me hands, drew on the board, asked them questions...made them figure it out. I was so proud of them for getting it, its really not that hard. Even though they are all older than me by at least 5 yrs. they responded to me. I could see their minds working and the information clicking. It was past memory, and into understanding "why" this part of the cell does this or is named that... It was so exciting! I encouraged them for the test tomorrow, and I know they will do well if they relax and trust they know the information.

It was a great accomplishment!

You have so many talents. It looks like teaching is another one, which fits right in with your caring personality. I'm glad you are helping others. It's okay to be smart and more than okay to use that intelligence for the good of others.

I'm very proud of you for not playing dumb. Our creator gave you unique gifts and he wants you to use them, not deny them in a false humility.

I am proud of you. Go Girl!
