With schools closed and everyone trying to get used to virtual learning,Chris Waba, a sixth grade math teacher in Madison, South Dakota was willing to do what it took to help 12-year-old Rylee Anderson understand a problem she was struggling with.
Waba had taught a lesson on Zoom earlier in the day and when Rylee didn’t get it, they were emailing back and forth. When she told him it still wasn’t clicking for her, the teacher grabbed a whiteboard and walked to her front door. He’s a neighbor and a family friend, and came and kneeled on her front porch for about 15 minutes to explain it, while she stayed safely inside.
Rylee’s dad, Josh Anderson, posted a photo of the heartwarming moment on Twitter and people are loving it.
