Meet your mentee, Morrie.

Morrie (Moriah) describes herself as wise, quiet, and considerate, and she brings a gentle, thoughtful presence to everything she does.

She loves both Science and English—science because of the labs, experiments, and anything involving the human body, and English because she enjoys reading, writing, and learning new words.

One of the last books she read was The Great Gatsby Remix. Outside the classroom, Morrie spends her time reading, writing, playing computer games, and watching shows like Kids Next Door, Sherlock, and the new Doctor Who. She also enjoys Japanese and Korean dramas, participated in a Japanese club, and took Japanese lessons. Morrie is considering attending college in Japan and is exploring creative career paths such as songwriting or becoming an author.

There are many natural connections between you and Morrie. You both care deeply about storytelling and creative expression, whether through reading, writing, or engaging with Korean and Japanese media. Morrie’s interest in studying or living in Japan aligns closely with your experience living abroad and teaching in Korea, and you understand the excitement and challenges of learning a new culture.

She is thoughtful, imaginative, and detail-oriented, and your background in editing, writing, and supporting young people makes you a wonderful match for her. She’s excited for your guidance as she explores writing, college possibilities, and her long-term dreams.
