Hi! I’m Christopher, a high school sophomore passionate about learning, teaching, and helping others succeed. I’ve been tutoring through Schoolhouse.world since 8th grade, specializing in Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, History, and Computer Science. I also mentor other tutors as a Schoolhouse Tutors Host and serve as a Senior Tutor in Reading/Writing and Enrichment. I love supporting learners by breaking down challenging concepts and encouraging curiosity. Outside of tutoring, I’m interested in Math, Science, Music, Creative Writing, and Social Advocacy. My goal is to make learning accessible, engaging, and empowering for every student I work with. 6th Grade: Honors Math 6, ELA 6, Integrated Science 6, World Studies I: Beginnings of Human Society to the Emergence of the First Global Age, Beginner Band 6, Keyboarding & Basic Word Processing, Physical Education 6, Health Education 6 7th Grade: NC Math 1, ELA 7, Integrated Science 7, World Studies II: The Great Global Convergence (1400–1800) to the Present, Intermediate Band 7, Media Art, Physical Education 7, Health Education 7 8th Grade: NC Math 2, Honors ELA 8, Integrated Science 8, North Carolina and United States History, AVID 8, Advanced Dance 8, Health & Physical Education 9th Grade: English I Honors, Band Intermediate, JROTC I, Career Management, Earth & Environmental Science, NC Math 3 Honors, World History Honors, Health/Physical Education 10th Grade: Microsoft Excel Honors, NC Math 4 Honors, English II Honors, Theater Arts Beginning, AP United States Government and Politics (planned), AP Psychology (planned), NCVPS: Latin I Honors (planned), Biology Honors (planned)

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

If you miss time, you’ll have to make up that time as long as you let me know ahead of time. Each session is 60 minutes, so if you miss a full session, you’ll need to find a way to make up those 60 minutes to stay on track. This helps make sure you don’t miss any instruction since you have to complete at least 240 hours total to pass, which comes from the higher-ups in the curriculum. For example, if you miss 15 minutes, you can either join 15 minutes early or stay 15 minutes after another session to make it up. If you miss 30 minutes, you can spread that out by staying 10 minutes after three different sessions or schedule a separate make-up time that works for both of us. The main thing is that all missed time must be made up so you meet your required hours and stay caught up with the class.
