Neelam Desai
Educator and builder. NYC.
I've been helping students raise their scores on standardized tests since 2008 — and building software for the last couple of years. I'm a dad to three daughters, an NYC native, and when I'm off the clock, I'm usually at a poker table or grilling something in the backyard.
Test Prep
I've been a Kaplan instructor since 2008, teaching SAT, ACT, GRE, and GMAT across NYC public schools, nationwide online classrooms, and Columbia University's STEP program. Over 90% of my students rate me 10 out of 10. If you're interested in working with me one-on-one or in a group class, you can request me through Kaplan.
Locked In
Locked In is an iOS app I built to help people stay off distracting apps when they need to focus. It's an app blocker — instead of just tracking how long you spent on Instagram or TikTok, it actually prevents you from opening them during hours you choose. I built it because I needed it myself.
