I have read a lot of plays in my time and I am super into drama and teaching, so we're in for a fun ride! Get ready for fun talks, cool activities, and maybe even some acting. Plus, we'll learn how to think and talk about plays like pros. 🤓 🎥

About the Tutor

Hello! I am a high school freshman from Texas and I attend a public high school (Go Eagles! 💚). I signed up for Schoolhouse mainly to tutor in Pre Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, Reading & Writing, and History. I am tutoring for volunteer hours at my school. I love reading and watching TV. If you have any questions, feel free to message me or attend one of my sessions and I will be happy to help! 👋Note: As school is approaching, I do need to focus on my studies, so I will only be on SHW for about 30-60 minutes a week. I should be free after Christmas break starts though, 12/23/24. 🎄
