Please don't be alarmed by the really long title of this series! This series is essentially for a book club. We'll be talking about books, films, comics, and more. You all can share all that you like! We can have fun debates and conversations about common tropes and ideas we see in the media. Please do not stop yourself from joining if you don't like books! Maybe you just don't like reading but I'm sure this club can allow you to take a greater interest in books. Even if you don't like books, we can look at many literary and non-literary texts like films, comics, mangas and more! Hey guys, I think I'll stick to holding one or two sessions a month.

This course is for students who want to improve their reading, writing, speaking, and listening comprehension skills. It is not lecture-based and consists primarily of students' practice. There will be a lot of repetitions in order to enhance the memory of the words and phrases. We will use Discovery Chinese and some other textbooks, but you do not need to buy them. We will mainly use simplified Chinese characters but may show some traditional Chinese characters to expand the learning. Students must set up their computers to enable PinYin to type Chinese characters while attending the class. I will add more sessions as we go.

Each (bi-weekly) session we’ll go over a new topic in Astronomy! You can expect to learn at least 1 new thing every class, do short/small presentations some classes, and even create your own alien! (Details coming soon) 👽 ☄️🌟 Let’s get our telescopes ready and look towards the night sky! 🌌 Note: I will allow co-hosting just in case I am unable to continue this series, however I will only be selecting a few!

Tools for School (toolsforschool.org) is a teen-led nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering students in need by providing them with backpacks and school supplies essential for their educational success. We aim to alleviate the financial burden faced by underprivileged families while raising awareness about this important issue in our community. In this workshop, we’ll share our entrepreneurial journey—how we started from a simple idea and grew Tools for School into a thriving organization with the support of teens just like you. We’ll discuss the challenges we faced, the lessons we learned, and the ways we engaged our peers in making a difference. Join us to discover how you can turn your passion into action and help create positive change in your community!
