Hello, and thank you for visiting my page to learn more about me! I am the Lead Instructor at the United States Air Force Academy Preparatory School Science Department, teaching chemistry and physics. I take a lot of pride in helping students learn, and I realize that teaching and preparing young minds for their future is a huge responsibility.

I know that some subjects like chemistry and math are just plain hard, but all students deserve every opportunity to develop a deep appreciation for these subjects because of their importance in our daily lives. I always take great care to truly understand the needs of my students by trying to put myself in their shoes. I never act like an expert who simply dispenses information, and I absolutely never look down on my students for misunderstandings. Patience is essential, and I think I have it in spades.

I specialize in teaching mathematics including calculus, algebra, and statistics as well as chemistry majors courses including organic chemistry and biochemistry. I am fully able to tutor at the university, high school, or middle school level courses. I strongly believe in challenging students by asking them questions throughout the session so that they develop new knowledge based on the knowledge they already have. I do not intend to lecture or simply talk at the student during a session. Active participation by the student is a much more powerful teaching technique, and I strive to keep my students engaged at all times. Guiding a student from misunderstanding and uncertainty to comprehension and deep appreciation is the most rewarding part of my job. I take your education or that of your student very seriously, but I always want learning to be fun and meaningful so the knowledge really resonates.

I have significant experience with a wide range of students, and I would love the opportunity to help you or your student learn chemistry and math. I look forward to hearing from you, and I truly appreciate you taking the time to learn more about me. Thanks!

Organic Chemistry

Organic Chemistry

I have a Bachelor's degree from the University of Northern Colorado during which I was awarded excellence in organic chemistry by the chemistry department. I got a Masters Degree in chemistry where I utilized important organic chemistry strategies such as reflux, column chromatography, HPLC, NMR, and many other instruments and techniques. I legitimately enjoy doing organic chemistry and always get excited when students come asking for help. It's a very fun and valuable subject.

Awesome tutor! Really patient and helpful

Sean covered a lot of problems on my practice exam and was very helpful. I feel a lot more confident than I did before the session. I would use Sean again as a tutor and would definitely recommend him to a friend who needed one. Thanks, Sean!

Clear and to-the-point

I'm currently in organic chemistry. Sean was able to explain concepts to me in very succinct terms and in ways that I can easily apply what I learned to more complicated problems going forward: he laid out the rules and told me what to use the rules for.

No-frills tutor!

Got to the subject super quick. Confident tutor and has a good grasp over his knowledge no doubt! He was able to break ice with my daughter quickly to be able to get to the subject. Was available for a quick lesson on a short notice.

Organic chemistry session

He is great at his job. I’ll be contacting him more often for some more concepts as we go. Highly recommended ! He went step by step on all of the problems I had therefore making it easy to understand the foundation .

Usama, 1 lesson with Sean

Easygoing, knowledgeable, and patient

Thank you for taking care of my son's math project at the last minute. Without you, not sure it would be a success. Thank you very much for reaching out so promptly!

Helps Daughter Understand

He really makes sure my daughter understands the material. She only seems to grasp the material from the way he explains it.

Mandy, 3 lessons with Sean

Flexible with teaching style

Knows what he is talking about and can explain it in many different ways to find what works best for you

Macy, 47 lessons with Sean

Very helpful

Sean helped me cover quite a bit in a hour. He helped me with some questions that really gave me trouble on my exam. The way he relayed the information was easy to understand. I will definitely contact him again if I come to a road block again.
