I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Sean: Glen Ellyn tutor

Certified Tutor

My passion for helping students succeed started during my undergraduate years at the University of California, Berkeley, where I earned my bachelor's degree in Biochemistry. As a reading instructor, basketball coach, and SAT tutor, I discovered the profound impact effective teaching can have.

As a current medical student, I have continued my passion for teaching/mentoring as a study mentor and anatomy instructor. I've tutored a wide range of subjects, but my current interests are the NBME shelf exams and USMLE step exams. Other interests outside of school include basketball, soccer, and eating a whole pie of tasty margherita pizza.

My teaching philosophy centers on diagnosing weaknesses, practicing critical thinking, and systematically reviewing results. From college to medical school, I have successfully taken many exams with many more to come. Thus, I am confident that my own studying journey will help me to further connect with students. With my dedication, educational background, and versatile tutoring experience, I'm committed to empowering students to reach their full potential and achieve their goals.
