    Naturally I didn't feel inspired enough to read all the links for you, since I already slaved away for long hours under a blistering sun pressing the search button after typing four whole words! - Quzah

    I'm in Highschool. I currently participate in:

    FBLA and regional officer
    Science Club
    Junior Class Council
    Elementary School Tutoring
    Community Service mostly with senior citizens
    Intramurals

    When I was a sophmore/freshman, I did soccer, wrestling, and lifted with the football team. But sports became too competitive aka. no fun. Guitar club was also short-lived.

    is it harder to believe that a high school student was teaching a high school teacher c++ so she could teach her classes c++?

    and is it hard to believe that a 2nd semester college student constantly finds better ways of coding than his teacher?

    Its hard to believe because every school I know of requires a teaching certificate to teach highschool and below.
    Now teaching other students outside of school hours or during a club meeting is something else.

    wow, guess i shoulda clarified myself, I teach C++ at my school every wednesday from 3:30-4:30 and have been doing it as a "school function" since last December. In the 10 or 12 meetings we've had so far, i've taught people who basically knew nothing about C++ everything from basic coding practises to for loops, while loops, conditionals, and using/creating functions (at least the basics)

    So yah, it's not an actual school class during the day, it's basically a "group" i just don't like calling it that

    if you want proof, you can see some of the notes i post on my site for the class at my website:

    TheJeffFiles.com

    and just go to the message board there. It's in the C++ group board
