Essence Festival 2013 Part 1

Today started out very early in Orlando and ended very late in New Orleans.  We got to the airport on time for a change. No “mad dash” through the airport. No sprained ankles running to catch a plane that is about to leave without us (long story, maybe I’ll explain at some point).  It was a laid back kind of day.  I’m certain tomorrow will be different.  We spent today getting settled in and getting prepared for the mass influx of humanity that is sure to follow on Friday.

I’m going to hit the sack now and rest for this non-stop weekend that’s about to start.  I watched the fireworks display from my hotel room.  I ate a “tv dinner” from the hotel store.  Tomorrow we will get seafood and we will consume large amounts of alcohol.  What the hell, we don’t have to drive anywhere…

Tomorrow I will post more pictures of my amazing weekend!

What the Heck is "Dancing for Dollars?"

What is “Dancing for Dollars” you may ask? Well, rest assured it has NOTHING to do with stripper poles or any such thing. “Dancing for Dollars” is the effort of our new Executive Director, Holly Mosley Cooper, MBA, to bring in funds and bring awareness to Hi-Tech Tutoring Center, Inc. Mrs. Cooper has been known to “cut a rug” and then trip over it.  Mrs. Holly Mosley Cooper, MBA But she is willing to make a spectacle of herself to help children who are in need but can’t afford to pay for the services. Hi-Tech Tutoring Center, Inc. is a 501 (c ) (3) organization registered with the State of Florida as such. We were founded nearly 30 years ago by our former Executive Director, Ernestine Mosley. The mission of the tutoring center has always been the education of its enrolled students. They have striven to reach those students that may have been deemed “unreachable” by the system. The ones who were labeled as lacking in some necessary component to succeed in school. ...

Hi-Tech's Virtual School's Out Summer Camp 2020

Do you have a child or young person in your care who’s on the Spectrum? How are they handling the shutdown? Two important things to remember:  Establish a regular routine and  maintain that routine to mimic normalcy  Hi-Tech is here to help. Reach out to us. Because while we all know this situation that we are in isn’t normal, we can do things to help our special ones deal with the disruption in all of our lives. For our part, my boy has started a rigorous fitness routine and changed his eating and sleeping habits to cope. However, he’s still having issues maintaining his academic subjects. That’s the main reason we left FL Virtual School years ago. We are also battling chronic boredom... But folks, we have a solution for all of our parents. While it will be geared more towards K through 3rd grade, all are welcome. We offer interactive  S.T.E.A.M.  games and even basic art taught by my very talented son.  INTRODUCING: School's Out Summer C...

We Are Here For You

Image
We will get through this together. I offer to you my almost 30 years of experience operating, funding, managing Hi-Tech Tutoring Center, Inc. I think the most effective way to approach things is by “grouping” students by ages in order to facilitate tutoring. I am happy to offer my assistance to parents who are trying to homeschool their children. Additionally, I will offer private tutoring sessions via Skype or Zoom.   In this time of social distancing and stay at home orders, we can still maintain our children’s educational integrity.   What I need from parents is to tell me what area is causing the most stress. I can record lessons and broadcast them on YouTube, or I can do live broadcasts on YouTube. My sense is that I will most likely do both. I will do whatever is most helpful. All I ask is for you to contribute what you can to the Tutoring center via PayPal and $CashApp. No amount is too small. $CashApp: $Homoco   PayPal: paypal.me/hitech177  Credit card dona...
