About Sophia
I love teaching, and I especially love teaching math and logic because you don't need anything other than curiosity, a writing tool, and a writing surface. Happy to teach students interested in calculus, probability, basic logic, mathematical proofs, and/or data structures and algorithms. All ages are welcome, as long as you bring enthusiasm!
I have now completed an HBSc with High Distinction at the University of Toronto, and I have TAed for MAT137Y1 (now MAT148H1, MAT149H1) and MAT135H1 at University of Toronto St. George. I have been teaching or tutoring university math students in calculus and proofs since 2020.

My goal as a tutor is to get fired; I want to get you to a point where you will no longer need me. If you want someone who will give you all the answers without needing you to do work, then I'm not the tutor for you. If you want to learn about solving problems independently and be confident in your thinking, then let's talk.
Our first step would be a free consultation where we discuss your personal goals and whether we're a good fit. Lessons with me will take an inquiry-based approach. I will generally pick out some exercises, then ask you questions, guiding you towards the solution(s). At the end of the lesson, we'll review takeaways and for the more eager students, exercises to do before our next session.

Honestly, hands down the best tutor I've had, Sophia doesn't just give you the solution like other tutors, she actually helps you solve the problem yourself, subtly guiding you until it clicks in your head. Her style of teaching is very unique and extremely effective. With her instruction I've managed to go from failing my MAT137 course with a ~40% to retaking it and getting an 80%, for reference MAT137 is a notorious (C- student average) University of Toronto course known for its high workload and rigour. If you're looking for a mathematics tutor, I recommend you give her a try!
Sophia is an extremely fun and knowledgable teacher! She helped me in calculus and statistics, and her explanations to my questions were always so clear and easy to follow. She finds ways to motivate my own thinking and help me thoroughly understand reasonings behind topics, and is super supportive and patient when I faced difficulties. 100/10 recommend if you want to not just get good grades but also get a great understanding of math!
