## Fiveable's Mission\n\nOur mission is to make learning easy and fun. We know that educational inequities have left students overwhelmed and fending for themselves. In order to close the opportunity gap, we need to create space for students to be creative and curious. To do this, we've created a social network for online learning communities through interactive content and courses. Because of COVID, we're in a lightning strike moment for education and we're fired up to change the way things are for high school students.\n\n## The Fiveable Team\n\nWe're a creative group of former teachers, community builders, game designers, and generally curious people who are driven by social impact. We're focused on building a diverse team and are inclusive of all backgrounds. And we're big on growth mindsets - we're all learning! \n\n\n\n### Learn more about us:\n\n👉 **Check out our site** - [https://fiveable.me](https://fiveable.me)\n\n✨ [Fiveable Offers Free AP Test Prep and Tips For Optimizing Remote Learning](https://www.forbes.com/sites/meimeifox/2020/05/08/fiveable-offers-free-ap-test-prep-and-tips-for-optimizing-remote-learning/) (Forbes)\n\n👩🏽‍🏫 [A Former Oakland Unified Teacher Now Helps Even More Students Pass AP Tests](https://www.edsurge.com/news/2019-05-06-a-former-oakland-unified-teacher-now-helps-even-more-students-pass-ap-tests) (Edsurge)\n\n🥳 **Read about our [latest funding announcement](https://hi.fiveable.me/founder-notes/fiveable-backed-by-top-tier-seed-investors-to-reimagine-social-learning-for-high-school-students/)**\n\n## Who we're looking for:\n\nIn the last few months, we have nearly quadrupled our user base since schools have been closed.
