Mathematics PhD student with 8 years online teaching experience, including geometry and advanced calculus

He is extremely patient! As a person who knows math, he shouldn't be this good at communication. As a person who knows communication, he shouldn't be this good at math. But somehow he is managed to have both features. Very knowledgeable teacher! Much appreciated!

Sean has a passion for both Math and sharing his knowledge. With two Master degrees he knows his subject.

Best ever tutor..kind, patient, and smart!

To Whom it May Concern,

This letter of recommendation for Sean Debusschere is written without any hesitation or reservations. I have had the pleasure of knowing Sean for over seven years. For five of those years, Sean was a math tutor for my son, who is legally blind and now a Junior at Kalamazoo College. Sean tutored my son through Algebra I & II, Geometry, Financial Math, and College Level Statistics. Four of those courses were independent study ALEKS online courses. Since there was no traditional teacher for these online courses, Sean taught every concept in his role as “tutor.”

Sean has an honest and pure desire for working with young people and he has an incredible talent for understanding mathematical concepts and making them come alive for his students. He speaks “math,” and connects mathematical thinking to real world experiences. His kindness, patience, enthusiasm and genuine love of math is contagious. It is obvious to me, that he has a genuine talent for teaching young people of all levels and abilities.

I feel that Sean Debusschere exemplifies what it means to be a teacher and there is no one I would recommend more as a tutor.

Sincerely,
