"Hi, I’m Shawn! I’m passionate about helping students grow as readers, writers, and critical thinkers. With a Master’s and Bachelor’s in English Literature from San Francisco State University and a current doctorate student in Educational Leadership, I’ve had the privilege of teaching at both San Francisco State, Cal State Monterey Bay, and within the California Community College system. My experience spans classrooms and one-on-one tutoring sessions, where I’ve created supportive learning environments that encourage growth and confidence.

I specialize in making complex ideas more accessible, whether we’re breaking down a challenging text or refining an essay. My teaching style is student-centered, meaning I tailor lessons to your unique needs and learning style. I believe everyone has the potential to succeed with the right support, and I’m here to provide just that." less...
