An amazing platform

Dec 30, 2024

Hello everyone. I am Jasurbek from Uzbekistan. I was truly happy as a teacher when I came across this website and its opportunities for learners from different geographical locations. Because unless I found this platform, I would not have reached my full potential as an English tutor. As a learner, this website helped me learn something new from various teachers and build discipline in my academic life. Additionally, as a teacher, I can solidify my knowledge and skills by organizing lessons and taking various tests. So, I want to say thank you to the founders of this amazing platform

240 SAT Score increase

Dec 26, 2024

Up until this year, I had relatively low SAT scores. On both tests I took I got a 1080 (super score of 1100). I needed a higher score to be eligible for a scholarship given from my state but I was already tired of SAT prep and the stress of test day. In my senior year (this year), I found the Schoolhouse 4 week bootcamp and decided to do it for my upcoming December test. This was not my first experience taking an SAT bootcamp, but it was definitely my best. The way class was set up around doing practice problems helped me build confidence in the sections I was good in and recognize what sections more attention. When test day rolled around I felt way more prepared. When my scores came back I had gotten way more than I needed for the state scholarship. I went from a 1080 to a 1320 with the help of Schoolhouse.world

Schoolhouse made me a topper

Nov 24, 2024

Before I discovered SHW, SAT seemed out of my reach. I also had to take the PSAT 8/9 in October. A few months back in my summer before 9th grade, I was scrolling through Khan Academy and I saw a SHW advertisement. I immediately made an account and got my first certification in Pre Algebra. I was so excited to be apart of this community. I kept on taking SAT and classes I was taking in high school. My tutors were very encouraging of my learning. This past October I have taken the PSAT 8/9 and I got a score in the 93 percentile. I am glad I have found SHW it has helped throughout my education very well.

Hansika is the best

I was struggling with analyzing text until I found Hansika's Q and A Session and I signed up and after the Q and A I wanted more sessions with her so I signed up for her series.

I was nervous to tutor my first session

Nov 19, 2024

Hi I'm Zaina from India and one day I thought I should also start tutoring to share some knowledge and build confidence but when it was time for the class I was nervous but then I also had a co-host Vedaa who encouraged me to do it and even the learners were awesome and to be honest SHW is the best platform for students I would recommend this to everyone it is really helpful. Thank you SHW

What Learners Have To Say About Sessions

Professional young man speaks very good as a teacher, as someone would with a great deal of experience. Vismay P. is very knowledgeable about programming. I would definitely recommend this tutor. Also he shared many recourses that will be very helpful to me in my continued learning. There were 2 people in the class and attention was given to each person fairly so that each person took from the class.

(Parent here) Excellent teaching -- the best tutoring we've seen so far. Very organized, useful time management tips, engaging process of letting kids try the questions on their own then calling on them to explain, and helpful review of key learnings at the end. Thank you!
Learner in Shiva K's session

I don’t know how but your way of explaining complex topics make so much sense to me. I tend to struggle with a lot of topics because I am definitely more of a hands on learner which was difficult in a virtual school setting since I tend to not ask a lot of questions even though I know I should. I really appreciate how attentive you are and if you continue doing topic like tonight’s, I will probably pass the exam because of you :’).

Ananyaa was super nice and chill. She gave some great tips I'll be sure to use from now on.
Learner in Ananyaa N's session

The tutor was amazing! She provided us with an engaging session wherein she cleared all our doubts. The slides and the annotations were exceptionally informative. I hope to attend many more sessions by this tutor.
