"Even though they're used to the school now,it's a new grade, it's a new classroom, new set of classmates so, [there are] still struggles."

"I was blessed to go to a high school where we had a production every year and all the students got together and created our own choreography and we had a live band and we performed the songs," he said.

"So yeah, it's kind of in me."
