So for the past few weeks, I have been figuring out the logistics of opening a walk-in tutoring service here in Dahlonega. Here is what I have so far.
Short term goals would be to rent a small house near the downtown area and charge around $950 per year for access. I would have the capacity help around 3-5 students at a time for the hours of 3pm-8pm Sunday through Friday. Students can show up for any math with limited science tutoring offered. I would also be open to private tutoring should somebody want to reserve an hour for their student. The main downsides I can think of would be the limited subjects being offered and the limited capacity.
With that in mind, I have a vision for the next few years. I would try to obtain a bigger space, maybe in the Walmart shopping center. I would also try to find other professional tutors for ELA and for Chemistry/Biology. The three of us would work together to handle a greater workload and to provide a high quality service for a reasonable price. It sounds ambitious, but it doesn’t stop there.
Now, let’s take a moment to talk about motivations and virtues. I believe that a democracy can only function properly with a well educated voting populous. Therefore, I believe in free, high-quality education, and it is my goal to work towards that ideal. With that, I would love to work towards some grant funding in order to make these services free to all of Lumpkin County. I would work with the local school district and the university in order to make this dream a reality. Although some will have criticisms for such ideals, I still believe in putting in the effort to strive for my virtues. Because I like to aim for the moon, and if I miss, at least I’d be among the stars.
