About the Tutor

Hey y'all! I'm Hind, a college freshman residing in KSA! I've been here on Schoolhouse as a tutor for over a year, and my goal is to share what I already know; I've also been a learner here for over two years to learn what I don't know! My strong suit is anything mathematics related, particularly calculus and advanced algebra; I've also scored a 700+ on the SAT math section and have a lot of science and English knowledge that I'd be more than happy to share! Furthermore, I'm a Schoolhouse moderator in the calculus subworld, so if any of you there are ever in need of any additional support or guidance, feel more than welcome to reach out! Outside of the Schoolhouse platform, I enjoy writing in English calligraphy, watching competitive cooking shows, and learning new languages, especially French and Arabic! I'm beyond grateful to be a part of this wonderful community, and it's a huge pleasure to meet all of you!
