Stephanie
Growing up with dyslexia, Stephanie always struggled in English and Reading. Math was a breeze for her, though. Along the way, there were a few teachers who really worked closely with Stephanie to help her absorb the information she needed, and they showed her how to make learning fun!

Ethan
Ethan has always been interested in the stars. For his eighth birthday, his father bought Ethan a telescope that allowed him to see comets, satellites, and nearby planets clearly. Once in high school, Ethan struggled with his English Literature course until one of his classmates pointed out that many poems have a mathematic rhythm. This was really interesting to Ethan. Unfortunately, Ethan’s grandparents, who live in Thailand, suffered a complete loss of their home due to a tsunami. They have come to live with Ethan. Ethan wonders if there was a way to prevent the tsunami or if the kind of earthquakes that cause the tsunami here happen on the moon.
