Hello everyone! My name is Mason, and I am a first year university student studying International Relations in Canada. I am a published author and aspiring diplomat! I was an IB student in high school and excelled in IB Geography, IB History, and IB English. Schoolhouse.World has been my home since 2021, and I cannot wait to continue spreading my knowledge about English, History, and other subjects to my students. :)
