Hey there, the name's Shawn! I graduated from UC Berkeley in 2020 with a major in Biology and a minor in Science and Math Education. I've worked as a math tutor online during the pandemic through an AmeriCorps group called Blueprint Schools Network. Since then, I've had the pleasure of finally being in person as a certified substitute teacher for all ages, K-12. I also have experience working as a private hire for students who wanted test prep.

I'm currently in the Santa Ana area because I'll be going back to school to become a Registered Nurse! In the off chance you have any questions about figuring out nursing school I'm happy to help navigate that with you. But most likely you're here for math, sciences, or exam prep.
My way of helping students get ahead is not by "knowing" but by "understanding." Time and time again in the classroom I've found that students often get lost or left behind because they did what they should, but they didn't quite get the reasoning behind it. In a one on one setting I'll be able to facilitate student learning by watching and guiding student understanding so that they'll feel confident in tackling future problems and not just present ones.
Message me and we'll get started!
