About Shauna
Experience: 10 yrs
My specialty is getting to know each student's learning style to teach them in the way they learn best! I have been a professional tutor for 12 years, with experience at tutoring centers, in-home tutoring, and home schooling. I teach SAT/ACT/GRE/ISEE, science, math, and English. I understand there is a negative review on my profile from 2020; however, this IS NOT related to me. I have been unable to appeal this. But PLEASE allow me to introduce myself and you will see that I am a kind, experienced tutor who cares about my students! I love explaining science, English, math, and other subjects so the concepts and applications are simple, clear and engaging. I tailor each lesson to help students raise their grades, improve moral, and build good study habits. I hold a BS/MS in biology, and have worked as a science writer/editor at Stanford University. Please note: My average rate is > $50/hr. Reach out now for your free consultation and personalized quote!

We are very grateful that Shauna came into our lives to support our kids with their academics and study skills. We have seen huge changes in their motivation, confidence, and their grades. Shauna teaches at our home, so I get to listen in sometimes. She seems able to teach math and English with the same skill, focusing on pattern recognition and application of new knowledge. She never lets my daughter end a lesson frustrated-she finds a way to get through to her. And my son is gaining confidence in his writing and math skills with every week. If you want someone gentle, responsible, and inspiring to help your kids, we highly recommend working with Shauna as a tutor.
