Hello!

My name is Sylvie, an enthusiastic private tutor for over 7 years with math as my first language and chemistry as my second. I found my purpose in life and that is "paying it forward" to our community through education by instilling grit with a growth mindset. I emphasize the importance of learning the fundamentals and concepts where it gets carried through in advanced topics. The highlight of my teaching style is being flexible by providing a variety of skills of analyzing, approaching, and double-checking a problem along with test taking strategies.

Since the start of the pandemic, I have witnessed the loss of learning which greatly hinders many students of being able to move forward in math because it requires prior knowledge. When I work with my students, I recognize these gaps in learning so I provide personalized, supplemental work that will help them to be successful. Being personable is one of my core values as a tutor to support each student not only in their academics such as study habits, planning, and learning but also for their mental well-being as well.

I hope to achieve with my students by bringing in creativity with solid foundations to become efficient problem solvers and bring the joy of learning to my students. I can't wait to be a part of their academic success!

Knowledgeable tutor!

Sylvie tutored my daughter before a test and it really made a difference. She even assigned some practice work to solidify the information she went over with my daughter. My daughter got an A on the retake so needless to say we are happy with the tutoring.

Great for Calculus

She is very good at explaining calculus topics in a simple way, great at explaining things multiple ways if you don’t understand the first time.
