Reading and Writing for the September 2025 SAT®

    Mondays 4:30 AM, Sundays 4:30 AM

Hi everyone! I've been tutoring the Reading and Writing bootcamp for a while now, so I'm excited to help you all improve. This four-week tutoring series will help you prepare for your upcoming SAT in Reading & Writing. By the end of the series, you will have completed multiple practice tests and worked through a number of problems from previous SATs, helping you build confidence for your upcoming exam. You’ll spend each session with me and a small group of other learners who are also working towards taking the SAT. Since it’s a small group, you can expect sessions to be very interactive as you work together towards improving your SAT skills as much as you can! Note: Cameras should be on so we can all get to know each other! If you have a specific reason why you can’t have your camera on, please notify me ahead of time.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Dialogue

    Ended Sun, Jul 20, 2025

Welcome to [Dialogues](https://schoolhouse.world/dialogues)! In this session, we will be discussing Artificial Intelligence and using this [discussion guide](https://schoolhouse.world/redirect?code=GYyn1bgpydt8413yLXkKg). Here’s some helpful information to help you prepare for your session: 📌 Session introduction: At the start of the session, the event host will provide some introductory remarks about how the session will work and tips for discussion. 🧩 Discussion partner matching: All participants will be matched with a conversation partner to discuss with. If there are uneven numbers, you may have two conversation partners. 🤝 Breakout discussions: After the session introduction, everyone will switch to their breakout discussion. Your discussion will be unmoderated, so you can start when your partner arrives in the new Zoom link. 🗺️ Discussion Guide: You will have a topic-specific discussion guide for the session to help guide conversation. ⏰ Session length: The breakout discussions are scheduled for 45 minutes but you can discuss as long as you want! ✅ Stay on topic: Please make sure to stay on topic. If you and your partner run out of things to discuss, it’s okay to end the discussion early. You will not be returning to the main group when your conversation is over. 🤔 Make the discussion your own: You probably won’t have time to answer all the guide questions so pick and choose! Feel free to also bring in your own questions and ideas outside of the guide. 📝 Survey: A mandatory survey will appear at the end of your session to fill out. This must be filled out for you to get credit for the session in your Dialogues portfolio. 🤸‍♂️ Have fun: There is no preparation needed for this event. These conversations are meant to be casual, in addition to being meaningful. We hope you enjoy it!

Official R&W Subworld Study Space

    Ended Thu, Feb 6, 2025

Struggling to focus? Having trouble completing your English assignments? Come to our R&W Subworld Study Space where we semi-independently work on our assignments together and seek help from peers if needed. This will not be a tutoring session. We will use the Pomodoro study method (25 minutes of study + 5 minutes of break). If you encounter a problem, you can post it in the chat to see if anyone can help. The purpose is to create an environment where people are encouraged to complete their assignments. As for those who didn't struggle with your assignment, feel free to come and see it as a study space :)
