Kiva
It all started one year when I was sent a link to a site called Kiva. The idea behind Kiva was to do something about the lack of micro-loans available for people who didn’t have the wherewithal to get loans because they were bad credit risks or lived in places which didn’t have traditional banks. When you go on the website, you can pick a country, a type of person or a group, a goal the person asking for the loan is working towards — it offers information that allows the lender, you and all the other people interested in helping the person/group, to feel like you know where your money is going to go and why.

Katonah Celebrates the Long Service of William “Doc” Smith
Back in the 1920s, Katonah resident William “Doc” Smith began a lifelong affiliation with the Scouts when he joined in Cold Spring, NY. After completing his studies in pediatrics and serving as a Captain in WWII, he settled in Katonah to practice medicine. He also started his association with Troop 1 in Katonah. Thus, February 9, 2006 was marked at the Katonah Methodist Church to celebrate his 50 years as Scout Master of the troop. But the milestone’s significance was not meant to imply an ending of any sort.

How can tutors help students to improve their Academic skills?
In a decade where home tutoring has slowly transitioned into online tutoring for many, apart from rolling with the punches with the teaching style, tuition teachers have had to also adapt to the dynamic changes within the learning style and capabilities of the student population.
