Overview
Shmoop is a digital publishing company with a point of view. We seek to empower and broaden the range and depth of choices that students have in life. Our teaching method revolves around the basic notion that learning is often unnecessarily hard--so we carry gallons of academic WD-40 that we squirt on the tracks whenever we can.
