Why They Love Being a Student
Because I’m homeschooled, which means my mom is my teacher, and we get to learn together every day. I love math and science, especially when I can experiment, build, and figure things out. We make learning as hands-on as possible, which makes it exciting and fun. I like asking questions, solving problems, and discovering how things work in the real world.
Favorite Subject & Why
It’s a tie between math and science! I like math because it feels easy to me and I like getting the answers right. It’s fun solving number problems. I like science because we get to do experiments and build things. I love hands-on projects and learning how stuff works. It makes me feel like a real scientist!
How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals
The $20,000 would help us purchase homeschool supplies, including a hands-on science subscription kit and an ASL tutor to continue growing his language skills. The remaining funds would be invested in a future college fund to support his long-term educational goals and give him a strong start as he continues learning and exploring his passions.
