I assisted students with daily school work and homework assignments, talking to them about the importance of education. I taught students how to behave appropriately in their classrooms, and about the importance of respecting themselves first so that they could display respectful behavior in the classroom. I also worked with the school principal to resolve student concerns.* Ensured that students received and completed assignments in a timely manner, and returned assignments to teachers.
