About Sophie
I grew up with rigorous training in International Math Olympiads from elementary school to middle school. My belief in education and my need for helping others led me to two Master's degrees in Development Economics and Special Education. These experiences gave me opportunities to not only learn about advanced math and pedagogy for students with various needs, but also better understand cultures, individuality, childhood development, macro-development, in general, humanity. In addition to teaching 4th and 5th grade math, I also tutor students (aging from 9 to 17) Math and Chinese. I love the interaction with the students, and only wish I could give them more with the time I have in the classroom.

I tutor elementary, middle school, and high school math. I also tutor Chinese. I firmly believe that all students can learn more effectively, regardless of their socioeconomic and cultural background, ability levels, or performance levels, as long as they have the access to an education that is suitable for them. To many of these students, one-on-one or small group tutoring is the optimal setting, because I've seen how much high achieving students crave for more and how much kids with needs can improve just with some extra attention everyday.
I also believe that teaching and learning should be a holistic experience. It is about developing a trusting relationship between the teacher and students. To me, good teachers not only teach academics, but also teach technology, communication, social emotional skills, and problem solving skills in the real world. I often connect math with science and social studies. I teach my students to look at math concepts in a useful, practical, and fun way. I teach students to see how math is not just a school subject or some boring numbers, it is really integrated everywhere in our daily life. I also teach testing skills, especially in computer based assessments, because it is proven from my experience that students do benefit from learning and practicing these skills, which will be even more important in middle school and high school.

I learned about Sophie from a friend referral. She has a great perceptive of seeing my son's needs and meeting where he is at. My son has ADHA. She has been working with him once a week on his middle school math assignments and helping him prepare for assessments. She uses creative kinesthetic learning activities to keep my son stay engaged. He always seems to enjoy his sessions because they not only talk about math but also various trendy topics that my son finds interesting. His teacher at school reported that he started participating more in class. I highly recommend Sophie as a tutor. Her dedication to student learning is very much appreciated.
Sophie has been tutoring my 10 year old daughter math. My daughter was having a hard time paying attention and retaining what she learned in the classroom. Sophie is an observant teacher and very knowledgeable in math. She is personable and my daughter enjoys working with her. Sophie ties her school curriculum with her interest and makes the lessons fun and relatable. I also liked that she has developed her own Canvas content to incorporate in her lessons, which has greatly helped my kid with her testing preparation. With Sophie's help and encouragement, my daughter is gaining confidence in math and in the classroom!
A very gifted teacher because not every teacher is as gifted & giving as her.
