Sophia

Sophia is originally from New York. She graduated cum laude from Harvard University with a BA in English Literature and Creative Writing, and went on to complete a Master’s degree at the London Film School.

Sophia has tutored privately for many years, including as a peer tutor with Harvard’s Bureau of Study Council and with private agencies in New York and London. She also worked as an Admissions Representative in the Harvard Admissions Office, giving her first-hand insight into US college admissions, and taught English in Guadalajara, Mexico.

Having always loved learning, Sophia aims to pass that passion on. She goes beyond the facts to push students to think more deeply, builds warm relationships with them, and focuses on skills they can carry into other subjects and other areas of life.
