About


Welcome to the book club! We will read a non-fiction book once/twice a week. I have selected two books that we'll read and discuss together over the sessions! Both books are science non-fiction. The books are very well written and have awesome reviews. We will be doing popcorn reading, so be ready to read!

1st book: The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer by Siddhartha Mukherjee.
2nd book: The Gene: An Intimate History by Siddhartha Mukherjee.

Although the series has started, feel free to still join(message me directly once you join so that you can get caught up).

Hi! I am Aditya, a high school student in Illinois. I like tutoring and learning STEM here at schoolhouse, because that is what I am most passionate about. I have always found learning and helping others learn to be very satisfying, especially those "aha moments". Joining the SHW community as a tutor has very fun experience so far. I hope to see you you guys in my future sessions! :)
