            Friday the last day the HOSTS I didn’t get to help  Hannah and Brandon this time due to their schedule of HOSTS program,  I help 1^st grade kids on writing words and making sentences.  The HOSTS program help kids from kinder,1^st grade and 2^nd grade every day is different grade been help. I help a kid name Ivan it was my first time helping him which he didn’t know how to react but I introduce myself being a HOSTS mentor, we being working on vocabulary pronunciation of words. Ivan knew what the word said he read it to himself quietly and couple of second he said it with confidence.  At the moment I notice he was a kid with confidence because he being interacting with my easily. He told him I like video game their very cool and entertaining to play. At the moment I knew part of his confidence and interaction with me was because of video games they provided communication when playing and it builds a self esteem to share new ideas. Ivan self esteem of sharing ideas of how he feel towers video games help him make sentences and knowledgeable kid who can easily speak with confidence thanks to video game.

My service week came to an end it was a great experience to be part of the HOSTS programs helping kids on their reading and writing skill. My goal during the service is to help student’s one-on one academic support for success by providing specific service such as tutoring and mentoring building a better self esteem on their reading and writing skill. I believe the HOSTS program is a way to help kids on their education to not fall behind their peer and are at risk of failing. Working with kid’s one on one it build a better interaction making them feel we care about them to succeed and feel safe. With program like HOSTS in school I believe this nation is on a mission to seek the next generations who will step up to plate and take the region of our leaders and become the change we wish to see.
