About

In this hands-on course, students explore how nature solves problems and how we can apply those ideas to engineering. Through outdoor observations, group activities, and creative challenges, they learn how trees manage water, how bees build efficiently, and how oceans filter waste. Students will sketch, build, and discuss solutions while seeing nature as a teacher and guide.

Hey! 👋 I’m Kanithra — a freshman in high school who’s always up for an adventure. I’m an extrovert who loves meeting new people, but I also enjoy quiet moments with a good book 📚. My favorite book series include anything by Rick Riordan, City Spies by James Ponti, Keeper of the lost cities by Shannon Messenger I can speak Tamil and English fluently, and I can hold a basic conversation in Spanish. My hobbies include photography, crocheting, cooking, and learning languages. Right now, I’m tapping into German, Dutch, Russian, French, Hindi, and Korean and I’m also into sports like badminton, swimming, and running.

Hi! I'm Neha, a student passionate about physics, math and science in general. I've always been fascinated with exploring the unknown, whether it be in the deep sea or in outer space. My ambition is to lead a life in STEM (to better our understanding of the universe), and I'm preparing to apply to Ivy Leagues, especially MIT.

Hi! I'm a high school junior in Taiwan, and I'm here to help with anything biology-related, chemistry-adjacent, or within the scope of Algebra 1. For biology specifically, I can teach up to the AP level—whether it's DNA replication, synthetic biology, or Hardy-Weinberg shenanigans, I've got you! When I'm not busy being an academic victim, I like cooking (attemptedly), playing Red Dead Redemption or Resident Evil 8, playing guitar, and spending time with my besties.
