Kangsoo Y. says, "We just moved to the US from Korea and the change has been very tough for my kids. They are not familiar with the US school system and falling behind. I saw their confidence draining. But all of that changed when SoFlo came into the picture. To start, they gave a free assessment so they could figure out where my children were struggling. From there we had weekly tutoring sessions that my kids actually enjoy. I am seeing their confidence return and life in the US get better for them" Read more

I believe a person's literacy - reading, writing, speaking - is one of the most valuable privileges in life. It provides the gift of communication among people in societies, a gift that ensures participation in everything from school to work to personal interests. I am passionate about listening to what a person wants to do, wants to learn in their English studies and helping her/him achieve that. My learners are my honored guests who I welcome into a new world of the English language, whether it's grammar or a voting ballot. I meet my learners at a convenient, comfortable location where they feel free to speak and read aloud. I've been an En...

Hi! I'm Katie, a college student at the University of California Santa Barbara, studying Environmental Science. I have been tutoring on and off for over six years, and have worked with students that are a variety of ages. I love how each student has a different learning style, and it is all about figuring out how to accommodate an individual's learning needs in order to help them understand. I love tutoring for all subjects, and look forward to helping you learn!

Karista S.
At first I wasn’t sure about this class because I wanted to learn how to write again. I had a Placement Exam and it has been about 2-3 years I haven’t wrote essays but after taking his class, I learner a lot and I passed my Placement Exam! I recommend taking his class and he truly cares about his students!

My daughter had to write a pre-algebra test in a few days and I was concerned she was struggling. I contacted SoFlo online, expressed my concern and in spite of the tight schedule they moved things around to accommodate my daughter. I witnessed the session and it’s the best thing since sliced bread. I love the teaching method, and that my daugher was offered multiple methods to solve the same problem. I recommend SoFlo highly!

Tai is an amazing tutor! He takes his time with explaining the materials and going over different math problems. He creates conversation so one can feel comfortable throughout the session. I got a solid A with his help! I could not have done it without his expertise and professionalism. I would highly recommend Tai for anybody. He is worth the price! Thank you Tai!

Dan is an excellent tutor. He is both knowledgeable and patient and you can tell he genuinely enjoys helping others learn. My last math class was over about a decade ago and he really helped me refresh my knowledge as well as learning new material!

I found several tutors for my son to talk with but after meeting Perry, he knew he was the one. Personable, knowledgeable, reasonably priced, and after only a few sessions, my son got impressive results.
