About

Each week, we will read the same book and discuss about our opinions or any thoughts about the book. This lowkey, open class will create an open space where people can share different perspectives about the same topic (book).

Hi! I'm a high school Junior living in Northern Virginia. I love discussions in any subjects, but particularly in english or history. Outside of the classroom, I love to play violin, read books, or ride (horses!). I joined Schoolhouse.world because of my interest in educational inequality, and I wanted to discuss more interesting topics with people from around the world. I truly believe that discussion is the best way to learn from each other, and I hope to achieve that from schoolhouse!
