About Us

SAM MEDDIN

Founder/Instructor

I am a 11th grader at B-CC High School in Bethesda, MD. In addition to enjoying the academics offered at B-CC, I'm also an active member of the following clubs/teams: debate, extemp, model UN, astronomy, and robotics. As president of B-CC's robotics team, I am looking forward to leading the team as we compete at the local, state, and national level this year. In my free time, I enjoy coding, spending time with friends, gaming, and volunteering.

I love working with kids, and I help teach a class of second graders Hebrew in my free time. Outside of school, I like to hang out with my friends, play baseball, and play with my dogs.

Hi, I’m a 11th grader at B-CC High School in Bethesda, MD. I have always enjoyed working with kids and am looking forward to getting to meet all of you soon! For the past few years, I have been a tutor at the Somerset Elementary School Math Club where I help out those in 2nd and 3rd grade improve their math skills. I'm also an avid baseball fan and play on a B-CC Select team and am an assistant coach for a local middle school team. In my free time, I enjoy hanging out with my friends, going for bike rides, playing baseball and other sports, and, of course, gaming!
