Mary-Beth was sitting next to you as you tried to read, seeing that you struggled on some words she had to correct you and help you read it.

"Strawberry." Mary-Beth said, putting a finger under the word you were struggling to read. "You got this, hun. Say it with me,"

"Straw.." She started, looking to you for a moment, her free hand going to your shoulder to reassure you more since you had gotten frustrated.

You were probably lucky that Mary-Beth was teaching you rather than Grimshaw, too.
