About

Hello Everyone! I am very glad you decided to click on this series for Pre-Algebra! Let's make some new friends together! Allow me to introduce myself: My name is Rohan Arunkumar, and I am a rising freshman who was in the Top 3 in middle school for both Pre-Algebra and Algebra 1 Honors. I won a Presidential Award of Excellence for my academic achievements and a golden seal on my diploma. In this session, we will be going over all the subtopics of Pre-Algebra on Khan Academy. At the end of each session, we will have an interactive review. No prior experience of pre-Algebra is required! Every session will be in chronological order, so as long as you attend, you will succeed! I hope to see everyone on the 4th of August!

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Please do not miss 3 sessions in a row without informing me beforehand. If this happens, you will sadly have to be withdrawn from the series.

About the Tutor

Hello, my name is Rohan! I am from New Jersey, and I am currently a high schooler. My goal on Schoolhouse is to help other students like me learn and be prepared for anything. My passion lies in machine learning (ML), and I have researched everything ML! (from model training techniques, hyperparameter tuning, and fine-tuning after the training process). Additionally, I enjoy software engineering on a broader level, with interests in competitive programming (USACO), web development, and efficiency with everything I create! During my free time, I am an avid videogame player, with multiple "Platinum" trophies on the hardest games of the decade. I have also played piano for 6 years and arrange my favorite video game tracks on piano (like "Escaping a Foul Prescence" from Ori 2, "Abyss Watchers" from Dark Souls 3, and "Final Battle" from Elden Ring as great examples)! Going outside the house, I play goalkeeper for my high school soccer team and I am a varsity swimmer. In addition to computer science, I also love mathematics, so if you have any questions about any High School Mathematics, Machine Learning, Python, or Java, feel free to ask me and I will try to get back to you with answers! Happy learning everyone! - Rohan
