Welcome to Peer Tutoring!
This elective class gives students the opportunity to work with students with severe disabilities in a variety of ways at Manti High School.
Everyday we begin each class with a "Quote of the day" and have a discussion with students and teachers. Here's what some peer tutors have said about the "Quote of the Day."
- “One thing that you’ve done for me that I appreciate a boatload, Mrs. Chidester is present a quote of the day every morning. I won’t lie, when we first started doing a quote of the day, I was pretty skeptical about how corny it would be. But I really do mean this when I say it’s something I look forward to every time I come into class. Even when I’m not speaking, I love hearing the wholesome discussion between everyone. Quote of the day really does bring out the best in everyone in that class I honestly think.” – Jackson
- “The quotes have helped me through the hard days. All the deep conversations that we had, they helped me keep going on throughout my day. I don’t know what I would do if I did not take your class because it helped me out a lot.” – Ashlee
- “Another important thing that I really loved this semester was the incorporation of the quote of the day. Some of those quotes were real eye openers to me. They taught me real lessons about life. Lessons that will actually carry on with me throughout the rest of my life.” – Braden
- “I like the quotes you do because it can inspire people to do the right things or even try harder at something they didn’t do the first time. Some of the quotes made a huge impact on my life. Especially the ones about not letting people get to you. People still get to me but not as easy. - Brenden
- “One of my favorite things about your class was the quote of the day. It changed my perspective so much! It for sure changed my life forever, and I will never forget it!” – Sidney
- “When we did quotes it really got me thinking like, wow everyone has all had their bad experiences and I can connect to them.” - Zoey
- “I learned a lot from the quotes every day. The quotes would always be ringing in my head for the rest of the day. I’ve been going through a lot of rough things this year and the quotes always helped. It was a definite highlight.” – Kal
- “Keep doing the quotes! I love them a lot!” – Kess
