To be eligible for entry, make sure you follow our social media accounts on Facebook and Instagram, tag @engootutors, and use the #EngooHalloween2022 hashtag.

We will also be encouraging students to share screenshots of their favorite costumes on social media, so don't be surprised if you notice your costume trending. Agreeing to this is one of the conditions of entering the contest.
