About

*New sessions added on request* Welcome to School and Schoolhouse.world, a Q&A on the art of learning I've been running for almost a year now! All you need is a Schoolhouse account. Don't have one? Sign Up for free: https://schoolhouse.world/api/auth/signup?ref=u-3rvjjcld4t This series began with study skills: Is notetaking useless? How should you study for exams? Can you ever truly focus on your work? Does listening to music while working help? And can you find time to do things that matter? But it has evolved into an Ask (Almost) Anything on self-directed learning, graduate school applications, studying various humanities disciplines, etc. In some ways, it mirrors my own journey as an autodidact in college and now graduate school. Most sessions are short enough to fit into your daily schedule, and I'll ensure that each of you gets to ask at least one question, and clarify your concerns about studying. So get your questions ready: Ask yourself what you want to ask! It's your questions that drive each session, so please participate either via the mic or chat box.
I'm super-excited to help you learn better inside or outside the classroom. See you in a session! :)

I'm a volunteer-tutor at Schoolhouse.world. I used to host (and co-host) Ask Me Anythings on autodidactism. But in 2024, I'm looking to tutoring reading and philosophy. Outside Schoolhouse, I hold an undergraduate degree in the social sciences (especially political theory), and wrote my capstone BA thesis in global philosophy. I also enjoy improvising remixed covers of various songs, but all mostly from the 1980s to present, give or take a few decades.

Statement of purpose, reference letters, portfolio—these show up in college, graduate school, and scholarship applications. While specifics vary, there's some general tools one can learn to navigate these without getting overwhelmed by it all. That's what I hope to discuss, in upcoming sessions. I'm hoping to expand this series itself to make it encompass more dimensions of student life - including these applications. I'm navigating graduate school applications myself, and in this session I hope to hear from y'all on whether you'd like to see such sessions. It's not a lecture, it's not a talk - rather, it's a dialogic two-way Q&A where my questions, and yours, will help me see whether to host sessions on these basic skills: Whom to ask reference letters for, and how to do it well? Should you get other people's feedback on your personal statement, or will it dilute your voice? Does having a huge list of accomplishments matter, or a small number of genuine pursuits that have truly impacted people's lives in positive ways?

What worked well for me? What didn't? What do you do when nobody shows up? How do you persevere when your session isn't sought-after yet? And how do you find co-tutors to support each other's tutoring journeys? We'll explore all of this and more in this one-of-a-kind Q&A on hosting Study Habits Q&As!

Practice session just to ensure everything on my end is okay. I'll be at the College Fair this weekend, and I want to make sure that the tech on my end is working fine. That said, I'm happy to take a quick question or two. After all, it's when there's at least one attendee that I can get real-time feedback on how things are. :) PS Here's the College Fair: https://schoolhouse.world/u/163628?ref=u-3rvjjcld4t

Apologies for missing my previous session - I just couldn't make it back home in time, caught up in unusually high traffic. I couldn't update the timings in time either.

Hello! I was a moderator and panelist for the Schoolhouse.world College Fair on Day 1. If you haven't checked it out, you should. It'll answer all your questions about college, from application to graduation. Sign Up and see the entire schedule here: https://schoolhouse.world/u/163628?ref=u-3rvjjcld4t Back to this session. I'm happy to talk about the Fair, and answer any questions y'all might have on college (and studying in general). If you've attended my recent sessions, you'll know that I've now started to tutor College Advice sessions, and this session will be structured as an Ask Me Anything, a format I've honed over 80+ sessions here on Schoolhouse. These sessions are also a way for me to learn from students about the things they need the most help with. See you soon! :)

Hello! I'm happy to answer any questions y'all might have on learning and tutoring on Schoolhouse.world, or on studying in general. I'm currently focused on postgraduate admissions and undergraduate paperwork, so I might not be able to host sessions regularly. But I hope these occasional sessions are of some help :) If you need urgent help with college or study skills, feel free to post in the College Advice Subworld. Before you do, however, do take some time to scroll through the archive of posts: odds are, you might find a similar question, with answers that might help you.

End-of-2023 Q&A! Ask Me (Almost) Anything about study skills and college applications. I've tutored and co-tutored sessions on these over the 2022-23 year.

Now I'd like to see what else I can tutor over the coming year, as well as take any questions you might have. I'm especially looking forward to tutoring philosophy, reading and writing, and the humanities, but always happy to answer school and college advice questions too. :)
