ROGER

Tutor

Roger has been part of the LogicPrep team for over a decade, making even the most arcane topics (physics! geology!) accessible to his students. 

Though Roger has been known to read quantum physics books for fun, he has a finely tuned ability to make complex concepts understandable to even the most hesitant math and science students. He is also uniquely skilled at bridging challenging academic content with real-world examples to make it come to life. Prior to joining LogicPrep, Roger worked as an environmental engineer, cleaning up contaminated industrial properties, and managing federal environmental projects. He also taught at an outdoor adventure company in New Jersey and worked as a ski instructor. 

Roger volunteers as an Acceptance Committee member and ACT/SAT tutor to underserved students through The Jesse Kolber Foundation Scholar Program.
