About

Join our weekly robotics theory sessions! 🤖 Dive into calibration techniques and efficiency hacks. We'll start with the basics and move to advanced topics. This isn't a coding class—I'll share my team's secret algorithms and innovative designs. Plus, you'll get tips to make your robots stand out in competitions. Ready to level up your robotics game and aim for nationals? 🚀 Let's get building!

Hi ya, you can call me Emmy or Emma whatever floats your boat. I'm an Aussie high-school student in her final years (or tears, depending on the day), living the cycle of study, snack, sleep, repeat. My subjects? ATAR English, Physics, Spec, Methods, and Chem—plenty to keep me busy! When I’m not studying, I enjoy reading essays and helping out with anything that comes my way. Outside of school, I enjoy playing Tennis, watching Netflix, and procrastinating. HAHA

Hey, I’m Aayushman! I am currently a high school junior 🚀 I love turning tricky concepts into ‘aha!’ moments and making learning feel less like a chore and more like an adventure. Whether it’s breaking down a tough math problem, designing something cool, or finding a smarter way to study, I’m all about making things click. Outside of tutoring, you’ll probably find me coding 💻, playing soccer ⚽, or jamming to Taylor Swift 🎶 (Swiftie for life!). I also love designing graphics 🎨, geeking out over robotics 🤖, and mapping constellations ✨ on a rare clear LA night. Oh, and if there’s a good book around, I’m probably lost in it. Learning isn’t just about memorizing facts—it’s about curiosity, creativity, and making connections. Let’s make it happen! 💡😎 .     ˚ .★ ★ ˚          *.  . ˚ *. •★ .     ˚ .     ˚    ˚ .★ ★ ˚          *.  . ˚ *. •★ .     ˚ .     ˚   ˚ .★ ★ ˚          *.  . ˚ *. •★ .     ˚ .     ˚   ˚ .★ ★ ˚          *.  . ˚ *. •★ .     ˚ .     ˚   ˚ .★ ★ ˚          *.  . ˚ *. •★ .     ˚ .     ˚   ˚ .★ ★ ˚          *.  . ˚ *. •★ .     ˚ .     ˚

Hi! I'm Prakruti, an incoming sophomore in the Bay Area! Let's see if we have common interests 👩‍💻I love programming, and it's been my goal for a long time to major in CS at Stanford :D 🧮 I love math. It's one of my favorite subjects at school! I love math because it's based on logic and reasoning! 👩‍🏫 Tutoring. I currently tutor speech and debate, and I've worked with multiple local organizations in my community. I've also worked with other topics such as astronomy and English. 📱 DM me on Schoolhouse or SHW's Slack @prakruti s if you have any questions, concerns, or comments regarding classes (session requests are always open!) or want to get to know me better :D.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

You don't have to attend every session, but if you jump into session 10 or 15 without the earlier ones, you might feel like you're trying to build a robot with missing pieces! 🤖 If you miss five sessions in a row without telling me, I'll assume you've been abducted by aliens and excuse you from the program. 🛸👽
