Welcome! This interactive and engaging series is designed to take you on a journey through the wonders of our cosmic neighborhood. Starting with the fundamentals, we'll explore everything from the Sun and planets to asteroids, comets, and distant dwarf planets. Each session will dive a little deeper, offering insights into the forces that shape our Solar System, the latest space exploration missions, and even the search for life beyond Earth. Whether you're a space enthusiast or just beginning to explore, this series will deepen your understanding of the Solar System in an accessible yet thorough way. Join us as we uncover the mysteries of spaces, one celestial body at a time!

Tutor Qualifications

Revathi M:

I have been learning about astronomy and space exploration since I was little. In Middle School, I took a course about astronomy and space exploration. I am currently taking engineering courses that use knowledge about outer space. I have tutored at Schoolhouse for a while, I only started tutoring in 2023, and I only hold sessions now and then. Even though I am still a little new, I can assure you that I will do my best to keep you engaged. So, let's have an amazing time together throughout this series! :)

About the Tutors

I am a high school student from Texas. I heard about Schoolhouse.world from watching a video on YouTube. In my free time, I like to study, and I also like to paint and draw in my free time as well. But I also love to dance and sing. I also spend some of my free time programming and coding, because I want to improve those skills.

Hey there! I'm Joe, a college freshman with a strong passion for math, computer science, and education. I have been homeschooled all the way through high school and currently reside in Oregon, USA. I'm glad to be a part of this wonderful community! I'm here to learn what I don't know and teach what I do know! I can tutor in any math topic ranging from pre-algebra to calculus, with a particular enthusiasm for geometry and trigonometry. I scored 790 on the Math section of the SAT, so I'm equipped to help with SAT Math prep as well. In addition to being a tutor here at Schoolhouse, I serve as a Geometry Subworld Moderator and a Tutor Coach. I was previously an SAT Bootcamp Guide and a member of the Welcoming Team. For fun I enjoy computer programming, keeping up with tech innovations, playing chess, solving Rubik's Cubes, stargazing with my refractor telescope, playing pickleball, and hiking the scenic trails of Oregon. I look forward to working with you!
