I'm a high schooler currently learning Linear Algebra and I love doing Algebra and Calculus! I'm also really interested in coding and teaching others about the wonders of Computer Science.

I'm a high school student, a Senior to be specific. I am ambitious and always like to get things done (in as little time as possible too... 😂). I hate putting things off but tend to find ways to do things easier... Some may call me lazy, some may call me creative, but one thing's for sure, I love learning! (Oh... and recently tutoring!) Feel free to browse my Git page :) https://github.com/HalShami

I am a high school senior who is interested in engineering, robotics, latin and computer science and most of all wants to learn things beyond what my school teaches me!! I also enjoy listening to unhealthy amounts of music, biking, coding, getting gas station slushies, gaming, binging youtube, and browsing pinterest in my free time :) Antarctica is really cold btw 🥶 (i'm actually from Indiana, USA) Check out my scrapbook to see what I'm working on CS related! : https://scrapbook.hackclub.com/fuzzy!!

I'm currently a sophomore in high school from Missouri. I love anything remotely related to math including subjects like physics and programming. I'm passionate about math because of its real-world applications everywhere from trajectory to password strength. I want to share my curiosity about numbers with others because I think everyone should love and understand math. Outside of schoolhouse, I enjoy playing tennis, programming, and eating loads of sushi!
