Hi! I’m Johaun! I’m an Academic Coach with Staying Ahead of the Game LLC. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Physics from MIT and my Master’s degree in Applied Physics from Rice University, and I’m currently pursuing my PhD in Applied Physics at Rice. I have over four years of experience mentoring, tutoring, and serving as a teaching assistant for high school and college students, including SAT, ACT, and AP test prep. I’m passionate about helping students discover how they learn best and guiding them toward their own “aha” moments. I believe mistakes are a normal and valuable part of learning, and I enjoy helping students build confidence, problem-solving skills, and a genuine love of discovery.
