Shawn M.

Shawn is an enthusiastic math, physics, and computer science tutor who believes that slow and steady doesn’t just win the race—it transforms how students see themselves. Currently pursuing an Honours BSc in Mathematics & Physics with The Open University (2021–present), Shawn has already earned a Diploma of Higher Education in Math & Physics from the same institution and a Certificate of Higher Education in Computer Science from the University of London. For three years, he has worked as a teaching fellow for fellow university students, guiding them through subjects that often feel impossible—mathematics, physics, algorithms, data structures, and the fundamentals of computer science. Shawn’s secret weapon? Epic music playing in the background during his own study sessions. (He’s happy to share his playlist.) Outside of tutoring, Shawn writes novels, reads everything he can get his hands on, and watches far too many films and anime series. His teaching philosophy is simple and fierce: anybody can do anything. With patience, encouragement, and a little steady persistence, Shawn helps students discover that they are capable of far more than they ever imagined. And in his spare time, he enjoys writing about himself in the third person—preferably with a dramatic orchestral swell.
