About

Hey everyone! We’re excited to welcome you to the committee sessions for the FAO committee of the Schoolhouse Model United Nations 2024! Schoolhouse MUN is an online Model United Nations event organised by a team of schoolhouse.world volunteers in which delegates will get the chance to represent different countries in 6 different committees of the United Nations to gain exposure to how the UN works, enhancing their knowledge on current world issues and improving their public speaking, collaboration and leadership skills. The FAO committee will be chaired by Hind S and Geetha S. The agenda for our committee is 'Assessing the causes and consequences of unequal food distribution across landmasses and regions' If you haven’t already, register for the main event’s series here: https://schoolhouse.world/series/12576 Please note that you need to join at least three committee sessions to receive a certificate of participation.

I'm a student and I am looking forward to learning new things beyond school. I am enrolled in an excellent music program where I learn to play the keyboard/piano. I'm a polyglot (7 languages known). I also love writing poetry, dramas/plays and short stories. I also like Computer Science and I'm familiar with HTML/CSS, Python, C & C++. I like to work on graphic designing in my free time. I like to read novels and watch Netflix. I'm excited to help you with subjects which I'm good at.

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!
