About

Hello! Welcome to my Discussion/Debates club. In this club, we will have light-hearted and fun discussions about various topics. I will also be teaching you guys how to debate effectively and present an argument. Each session, we will vote on a topic to discuss and have a respectful discussion. My co-hosts and I will be regulating the discussion, but other than that, you are free to share whatever your thoughts are. I can't wait to discuss with you!

EDIT: The series does not only have 2 sessions, I add more as the series progresses. Please expect all sessions to be on Mondays and Fridays at 3:00 PM CT.

Tutor Qualifications

I am very skilled in Discussions/Debates and I am very good at regulating discussions and giving pointers on how to keep things under control and how to have an effective argument.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

I expect you to join every session and let me know if you cannot make it. Theses sessions are very short (only 45 minutes) so I expect you to be on time. Please make sure your microphone is working and that you are available to unmute. I will NOT withdraw anyone, but I will be in contact with you if you violate the attendance policy.

About the Tutors

Hello! I am a high school freshman from Texas and I attend a public high school (Go Eagles! 💚). I signed up for Schoolhouse mainly to tutor in Pre Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, Reading & Writing, and History. I am tutoring for volunteer hours at my school. I love reading and watching TV. If you have any questions, feel free to message me or attend one of my sessions and I will be happy to help! 👋Note: As school is approaching, I do need to focus on my studies, so I will only be on SHW for about 30-60 minutes a week. I should be free after Christmas break starts though, 12/23/24. 🎄
