Cornell Math Graduate and Former NASA Intern-- Loves Math and Teaching
Hi, I'm Sophie! I recently graduated magna cum laude from Cornell University in Ithaca, NY. I earned my Bachelor of Arts with a mathematics major and computer science minor. At Cornell, I worked as a teaching assistant for several semesters, and discovered a love of teaching! I enjoy the challenge and creativity involved in finding new ways to present students with complex topics. I find it incredibly rewarding when a tricky concept finally clicks for a student, and I can tell they really...

Excellent instruction!
My son learned a lot from his first session with Sophie. He came away with pages of notes for how to approach his 8th grade geometry/pre-algebra homework, and has a lot more confidence in math already. Highly recommend.

A sweetheart and great tutor
I am so glad that we found Sophie to help my daughter with her algebra summer work. My daughter was really struggling with systems of equations and inequalities, and after just an hour of tutoring with Sophie, she was able to finish her worksheets on her own. Sophie is incredibly kind and an excellent teacher, and I highly recommend her for any struggling students.

Kind, Patient, and Super Helpful
I had a few lessons with Sophie to get help on some precalculus homeworks for a summer course. She really knows her math, and she always seemed to know the answers immediately. But she was also super patient as she helped me work through the problems, coaching me through tricky parts whenever I got stuck, and explaining the points that I didn't understand until they were clear. I feel like I have a much better understanding of the material now. Sophie is an awesome tutor and I will definitely continue to use her for math help.
