Stephanie
LSAT teacher/tutor, with content creation experience
I have three years teaching and tutoring experience for the LSAT, and was the former project manager for Kaplan's LSAT program. As such, I was involved in content creation, which included writing parts of the tutorial videos, the lesson books, and the teacher's editions, as well as editing explanations for tests released between 2012 to 2014. That may have made me biased, but I'm a big proponent of reading the explanations for the WRONG answers, just as much as for the correct one. I grad... Read more

Lee
PhD Scientist / Engineer, I teach "whys" and "hows", not just facts.
After my lessons, kids not initially interested in science have gone on to wanting to go to MIT. I teach biology and computer science to kids and adults in a clear and easily understandable way, by teaching the underlying "whys" and "hows", instead of just the terminology and facts. I'm able to recognize unique 'hold ups' for each student to help them make break throughs in their understanding.
