Instructor:

Caroline Ge

Caroline is (about to be) a Grade 12 student at Western Canada High School. She takes Full IB and Bio, ELA, and Chemistry at the Higher Level. When she has some rare free time, she enjoys writing poetry, and currently has a poetry collection, “two ears, one mouth” published on Amazon (go check it out!).
