In 2024, I started going one a week to help kids do homework. The whole thing is organized by Le Crab Rouge. In the one or two hours that I am there I end up helping a few kids and I guess that this makes me feel good about myself. However, what makes me feel best about it is to see all these other people (a very varied bunch) who go do the same as I do, not to speak about the people running the association.
When I contacted Le Crab Rouge, they inquired about what I do. I guess that they noticed how I was butchering french, and they worried that it was me who needed homework help... I guess that they thought that I could help with other things. But what they entirely ignored is what, I think, has been my main strength: the ability to talk soccer and to discuss Real Madrid players. I mean, a math problem involving going with a bunch of friends to see Vinicius play, gets way more attention than if it is about going to from Lille to Marseille.
