About Sophia
My name is Sophia and I am a fully qualified teacher (QTS) with a First-Class Honours degree in BSc Chemistry. After completing my undergraduate, I then went onto achieving a Postgraduate Diploma in Secondary Education (PGDipEd) in Science - Chemistry, at the University of Birmingham.
I am a caring, committed and competent individual that is driven by the desire to help others, and thrives off the success of her pupils. Currently, I am working as a secondary school classroom teacher, teaching Science (Biology, Chemistry and Physics) as well as Mathematics. Along with the strong passion I possess for my subjects, I enjoy sharing and passing on my existing knowledge, as well as being given the chance to make a direct impact on young people, inspiring them to reach their full potential.
I have five years of teaching experience in school and eight years of experience in tutoring, having offered one-to-one and group tuition to children of both primary and secondary school ages.
The subjects and levels I have experience in teaching are as follows:
Science – Key stage 1, 2 and 3
Mathematics – Key stage 1, 2 and 3
Chemistry – GCSE
Biology – GCSE
Physics - GCSE
My price is £35 per hour for the initial trial lesson and then £40 per hour if you would like to continue.
My approach to teaching is flexible, depending on the needs of the student. I can easily tailor my teaching style to meet the requirements of all learners. I strongly believe that having the ability to pass on complex ideas in a way that would make it easy and simple for students to grasp the idea of is a vital skill to have in this field.
After the understanding of concepts have been mastered, it is fundamental that one goes through as many exam-style questions as possible to help prepare for their upcoming exam. Being a GCSE examiner has further developed my teaching and examining skills, and this will enable my students to have no doubt but to excel in their experience with me as their tutor.

Helped me on what I was struggling with in school, explained complex information to me and allowed me to understand it better
Although Sophia is not known to tutor GCSE English, I required her help after numerous exam retakes. After Sophia tutored me, I finally understood what I had not been able to grasp the concept of for a very long time. She was fluent in her explanations, it was as if she’s an actual English teacher.
I have found Sophia to be an excellent teacher. She has high standards and her attention to detail clears up any misconceptions the student may have with regards to the topic being taught. She tailors her lesson to the students level which helps engage and motivate them. I have no hesitation in recommending Sophia’s skill as a tutor..
I have known Sophia as a colleague since the beginning of her teaching career.
Sophia has undertaken a vast amount of work experience at different tuition centres from which she has gained and developed substantial skills that would enable her to thrive as a professional tutor. She is highly skilled in this field of work, and now offers online tuition where she is able to deliver the curriculum to various year groups of individuals at the comfort of their own homes.

Extremely helpful and patient, I cannot express how much Sophia has helped me out
Sophia helped me with A-Level Chemistry. She gave me a lot of time and was patient with me as I did struggle in the beginning. She allowed me to develop my understanding by breaking down complex ideas into simple information. We went through a lot of exam practice questions, enough to help me prepare for my A Level exams.
I have worked with Sophia for a number of years. She is an excellent teacher as well as tutor. Her students speak fondly of her and really enjoy her teaching methods. She always puts the needs of her learners first and educates them to the best of her ability. I have no doubt that students who have Sophia as their tutor will excel in their studies.
Sophia tutored me for three years throughout my GCSE’s. She helped me work through challenging exam questions until I was able to do them on my own. She always helped me when I needed her and she was very easy to get along with. She is now tutoring my younger siblings and they respond very well to her.
Helped my daughter with Maths. Sophia went through plenty of past paper questions which helped my daughter improve on her exam skills. Sophia is very good with children and connected really well with my daughter
