Stahlke Adoption

Tutoring

At different times in the last few months, my sister and I have both talked to Dad about a shared experience from childhood. My father is trained in chemistry, physics, and mathematics, so when we children had questions about our math homework, he was the expert in the house. I still vividly remember his delight at working through the "puzzles" of our math assignments.

Today, Jonathan asked me to help Peter write a paper about the Egyptian pyramids. This afternoon, Peter and I spent time at the library, finding sources, highlighting them, and planning his paper. The whole process reminds me of my father, for I'm also delighting in working through my type of puzzle with Peter.
