Hi, my name is Sofia, and I love to travel, and I love working with students! The most rewarding part of tutoring is when a new concept “clicks” with a student - their excitement is contagious, and it’s a privilege to be able to help them reach that point! On a more personal level, I am a talkative and nerdy type of person - and can show up in my tutoring, too! I partner with students on a one-on-one basis in STEM subjects through SoFlo Tutors, my tutoring agency. I graduated from Texas A&M University, studying Computer Engineering, and have been tutoring with SoFlo for the last two years. Math and Science tend to build on themselves, so my

How do I know if my child needs a math tutor?

Your child may need a math tutor if:

  • Their grades or test scores are declining
  • They get confused or frustrated with homework
  • They are having difficulty or lacking confidence with numbers
  • They are excelling in school and need more challenging tasks
  • You are no longer able to provide help with homework or learning
  • They have a learning disability

How many math tutoring sessions are needed?

Tutors suggest a minimum of one tutoring session per week until students build confidence, understand the subject, and improve grades. Sometimes, a few tutoring sessions can help students get back on track and regain confidence. If the student struggles in two or more classes, more sessions are recommended. On average, students take 9 to 50 sessions.

What do private math tutors do?

Math tutors are responsible for helping students with homework, teaching various mathematical concepts, motivating and boosting confidence, and teaching skills like note-taking, studying, and test-taking.

Mr. Thomas: A special thank you for your assistance with a spreadsheet project that I needed for work; you were able to provide me with valued assistance from functions and formulas and some of those functions were quite challenging and quite unfamiliar. I know that you burned the midnight oil to speed the turnaround of my many questions back to me and I am very grateful and inspired by your knowledge and work ethic. Thank you for your valued assistance; you are on my speed dial and Rolodex. With great appreciation,

Ms. Thompson has helped my daughter be very successful with math and algebra over the past two years . Meg has the uncanny ability to decipher why a student is having difficulty with a problem, and seeing it from their point of view, she can then explain things in a way that makes sense to the student. She is down to earth and empathetic, yet firm and serious about her students work. She is tactful, easy to talk to, very helpful, easy to understand, concise, flexible and adaptable. She has been a joy to work with!
