Lee
PhD Scientist / Engineer, I teach "whys" and "hows", not just facts.

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.

Tiph
Multi-disciplinary artist specializing in Photography and Design
I'm Tiph! I'm a traveling multi-disciplinary artist based in Brooklyn, NY. In college, I realized that the classes I enjoyed most were project based verses lecture based.
