About Us
Our Mission
NeuroHabit is a student-led, youth organization that aims to expand educational opportunity by providing academic support, learning resources, and evidence-based study strategies to students who may lack access to strong academic support systems. It was founded by four students who recognized that access to academic resources is often unequal, with many students benefiting from private tutoring, specialized test preparation programs, and other forms of academic support that are not available to everyone. NeuroHabit seeks to help bridge this gap by providing accessible educational resources and teaching effective learning strategies that empower students to become confident, independent learners and build strong foundations for future academic success.
Meet the Team
President
Ashley Kim
Hi! I’m Ashley, the president of NeuroHabit. I enjoy working directly with younger students and finding creative ways to make learning feel less overwhelming and more engaging. Through NeuroHabit, I help develop educational programs, coordinate our team, and share evidence-based learning strategies with students who may not have access to strong academic support. My favorite part is seeing students become more confident in their abilities and discover approaches that genuinely work for them.
Vice President
Brendan Lee
Hello, I'm Brendan, the vice president of NeuroHabit. I became involved because I wanted to help younger students feel more comfortable asking questions and working through difficult subjects. I mainly help plan workshops, create learning materials, and keep our programs organized. I especially enjoy seeing students participate more openly and realize that making mistakes is a normal part of learning.

Curriculum Developer
Lydia Cho
Hi, I’m Lydia, NeuroHabit’s Curriculum Developer! I enjoy coming up with creative lessons and activities that make learning feel more interesting and less stressful. I help create educational materials that combine academic content with research-based study strategies. My favorite part is turning difficult topics into activities that students can understand, enjoy, and remember.
Our Approach
How We Teach
Every NeuroHabit program is built around three principles:
-
Understand how the brain learns.
-
Practice evidence-based study techniques.
-
Apply those strategies to real academic subjects.
This helps students not only improve in one class but also develop learning habits they can continue using throughout their education.
