"Ok, one last problem, and then we are done," Don Anderson announced.

Don had been tutoring Virna for 88 minutes of an hour and a half session. Virna was happy that the session was over. She worked on the problem and showed Don when she was done. He saw the problem was right and ended the session.

"We're done, get your mother." Don put away his supplies and put on his coat. The last step in any tutoring session was to get paid. Virna's mother would come in a couple of minutes with cash, $90 for an hour and a half.

It was taking a little longer than he expected, he moved towards the door with all his books and supplies in hand.

Virna's mother, Jean found him there. She handed him the money.

Don walked to the door and opened it. Jean followed a step.

"How is Virna doing?"

"She's starting to get the material. I'm encouraged by her progress."
