Dave Egger, TED TALK #6

After watching Dave Egger’s TED talk, the ways that he gives up his flexible hours back to the community by tutoring children who go to schools with too many kids for an hour with their teacher. He shows that if you give time for a good cause, people will give back to you too. When he talks about how his Pirate shop was actual making money because the kids were grateful for their learning experience that Dave gives them. This one-on-one learning experience has children raising their grades, and actually loving to read and write. His wish that everybody involves themselves with public schools in order to change the way children learn in not only this day and age, but the future also.
