Bio

I've lived in the San Diego area since 2003. I started out as a student myself at Southwestern College. I majored in math, and while I was taking classes I made extra money working as an independent tutor for elementary and high school students. I'm available on Mondays, Thursdays, and weekends for most of the day, or on other days after 4 PM.

I've lived in the San Diego area since 2003. I started out as a student myself at Southwestern College. I majored in math, and while I was taking classes I made extra money working as an independent tutor for elementary and high school students. I'm available on Mondays, Thursdays, and weekends for most of the day, or on other days after 4 PM.
I like helping people to develop an interest in the subject themselves, so that it doesn't seem like work when they're learning. I've found that the best way to become proficient is to really *want* to learn the material--not just to get a grade, but to expand your knowledge.
I've worked with everyone from the elementary school to the college level, and have no particular preference. I look forward to working with you, and to making your experience worthwhile.

We like Sean a lot!

My daughter says she can be understand Sean's explanation of complicated topics very well. He cleared some "dark spots" in precalc for her In just couple sessions. It is a great help before the semester finals!

Anna, 11 lessons with Sean

Sean is very knowledgeable as a calculus tutor

After only a couple of calculus tutoring sessions with Sean my son was doing better on his homework and quizzes. More importantly, his confidence soared. Working with Sean on a weekly basis has given my son a better understanding of the material and a sense that he can keep up with the material. Sean has also been very accommodating with my son’s busy schedule.

Paul, 13 lessons with Sean

Very smart and polite

He did a great job with my son. This was the first time we had him come by our house. He was kind and polite. My son was impressed with how much he knew and how patient he was. He answered all his questions in a demanding 10th grade Math class. Thank you very much. Will use Sean again!

Stan, 2 lessons with Sean

Knowledgeable and patient tutor that made tough concepts easier to understand.

Sean helped my son get over a large hurdle of misunderstanding in trigonometry. He explained the concepts in a way my son could understand. We appreciate that he left us with a written reference guide that he'd customized for my son's needs. If your student struggles at all with trig, I recommend you give Sean a call.
