Hello! My name is Sophie. I graduated from Harvard University, where I studied mathematics with a secondary in Spanish. I love to tutor students in a range of subjects, especially math and test prep (SAT, SSAT, ISEE). I have experience teaching students of all levels – from middle schoolers all the way through college students. I have worked as a calculus instructor and academic coach at Harvard and I am currently doing a Master’s in Spanish in Madrid with Saint Louis University as a recipient of their Regis 100 scholarship. Looking forward to meeting you!
