Ryan C

Hello, fellow Schoolhouse.world classmates! My name is Ryan and I am a HS senior.

While I live in the USA, I speak Mandarin at home.

You probably come here to know what kind of tutor I am, so I'll just say it: I think connection is the base of all peer tutoring, so that's something I aim to emphasize with my learning structures. I'm not a fan of lecture-style tutoring (though I sometimes do it anyways since I have a habit of overexplaning myself) and I'm not a fan of textbook-style learning: you learn the way you feel most with. With the way I talk, and the fact that I'm kind of anti-social and giddy when I talk, you won't get the most straightforward session, but what you will get is one that makes you feel welcome and comfortable (I hope 😊)

Now about me: I have played piano for almost 11 years, and love to play Romantic era compositions and jazz music. I’m not studious, but I am very involved-participating in two mini jazz ensembles, Chamber Choir, Model UN, NAQT Quiz Bowl, Jazz Band (at district level) and Theatre Orchestra, as well as functioning as Vice President and accompanist of Concert Choir. I’m also an avid MOBA gamer, and I play a lot of Mobile Legends, some Honor of Kings, and recently started playing League of Legends (my IGN for all is IDontKnowJack if you want to challenge me) I’m personally not very strong personality wise, but something I do take pride in is my willingness to challenge myself, through taking challenging classes (took Multivariate Calculus just last semester) and fighting my antisocial instincts/fears of public speaking through Model UN and Schoolhouse.world, and also auditioning for actual theatre!

My goal is to get Gold in Schoolhouse, get accepted in-state to become a data science major and eventually get my Masters degree, and be the best I can be.
