EDG 4467/ Alia Kasem learning Service

Hello Dr. Murray.
I went to Mr. Hunt class on Oct. 3rd, 2007 forone hour from 1:00 to 2:00
When I enter the class I found Mr. Hunt reviewing the students writing assignments. He gives them one writing assignment every week. My son seems to be interested in the topics and write his with no trouble. Mr. Hunt said that there are some students did not turn in any assignment yet. So he asked me to work with a girl on an assignment about an adventure in space. We started and finished three fourth of the assignment before the bell rang. I promised the girl that I will come tomorrow morning and finish it with her. She seemed to have lots of ideas and has good spelling skills. The only problem she has is that she does not like someone to tell her to rewrite something in another way than her way even if it is wrong. She was happy that I will help her tomorrow. Mr. Hunt told me to work on another assignment and the topic will be friendly letter. I felt that the student is a smart kid and just need little help in the class and a little at home, but neither the teacher nor the parents seem to have time for kids like her.
