Hi, my name is Sylvia, and I love working with students! Fun fact: I can recite every line of the movie The Princess Bride.

On a more personal level, I am a friendly, outdoorsy, athletic, and talkative type of person! I partner with students on a one-on-one basis in STEM subjects through SoFlo Tutors, my tutoring agency.

Peter O. says, "I had to take the SATs my junior year of high school. I had already taken them twice and didn't do as well as I'd hoped. I came in contact with Santhosh through a mutual friend and he helped me dramatically improve my SAT score. He knew the right tips and tricks to ace the test." Read more

On average, students take 9 to 50 sessions.

Chemistry was a subject I struggled with heavily during my Junior Year of high school. Santhosh would help me a ton during our tutoring sessions and the tests/quizzes felt like a breeze. I would highly recommend Santhosh's services to anyone who is looking for assistance.
