About
Jisoo teaches IB Biology and Chemistry with a Master's in Life Sciences from Yonsei University and high school education in New Jersey, USA. Her bilingual academic background bridges the gap for Korean IB students whose science vocabulary developed in Korean but who now need to write at IB exam standard in English. Before joining IBtheTOP, she taught at a leading IB academy in Apgujeong.
Teaching Style
Narrative-driven learning
Complex life phenomena introduced as interesting stories with narrative threads that make heavy content memorable and engaging.
Why before how
Chemistry reactions and structures explained through conceptual understanding first, then procedural application — building lasting intuition.
Context-and-meaning focus
Designed for learners who thrive on understanding the significance and connection of content, rather than isolated fact memorisation.
