Sophia graduated from Trinity College, Oxford in Classics and Modern Languages (French), after achieving A*s in French, Latin, Classical Greek and History at A-level. She speaks fluent French and Russian and is an award-winning author.
Sophia has over six years’ experience tutoring French, Latin and Classical Greek to students aged 6 to 18. Her results include taking a Year 8 student through the full French GCSE to a Grade 8, raising a dyslexic student from a predicted 5 to an 8 in five months, and preparing 13+ scholarship candidates in Latin and French, including a winner of Eton’s King’s Scholarship. She has extensive experience with dyslexic and autistic students, students with sensory processing differences and international learners.
Her teaching is demanding but deeply supportive, built on rigorous grammar foundations, bespoke materials and structured progression plans, balanced with warmth and patience.
