  • Hi, my name is Tim Sherry and I am one of many Varsity Tutors.

About Me

I attended Jesuit High School in Carmichael, CA where I graduated with a 4.3 GPA taking multiple AP and honors courses (AP Bio, Chem, Physics B, Gov, Macroeconomics, Microeconomics, English Lit, and English Lang). I also participated in several tutoring organizations throughout high school. I then attended UCLA for my undergrad degree in Political Science (Class of 2014) while also completing the pre med requirements there. At UCLA, I took the full General and Organic Chem series with labs, Life Science Physics including labs, Calculus, Biology including labs, and completed an honors thesis for the political science department. I took one gap year between UCLA and medical school where I worked in a Neuroscience and Biophysics Research Lab while TAing (teaching assistant) for several biology courses including LS 2, LS 4, and LS23L (Cells, Tissues and Organs, Genetics, and Intro to Biology Lab).I currently attend Drexel University College of Medicine where I am in my final year of MedU al school currently applying for my residency position.

Q&A with Timothy

I focus primarily on lots of practice questions as the best method of learning. I also believe that different classes require very different teaching methods as well, and will work to individualize the methods based on the student. For example, for Biology classes, we will focus on finding mnemonics and other ways of learning the vast majority of material, versus Physics classes where we will focus more on application and practice problems to better understand the fundamentals.
