About


Hi, I'm Sofiia! I'm a 17-year-old Ukrainian student, and I've been attending an American boarding school for the past 2 and a half years. When I'm not writing poetry or short stories, I'm either baking or learning about the newest discoveries in neuroscience. My preferred literature genre is fiction with a sprinkle of philosophy—think Flowers for Algernon :)

Through the series, I want to help others navigate the confusing landscape that is the R&W section of the SAT, with the keen attention to detail it requires. I've gotten a score of 740 on this section in the PSAT, and I'd love to help you all improve your score too. Looking forward to meeting you!

This four-week tutoring series will help you prepare for your upcoming SAT in both Reading and Writing & Language. By the end of the series, you will have completed multiple practice tests and worked through a number of problems from previous SATs, helping you build confidence for your upcoming exam. You’ll spend each session with me and a small group of other learners who are also working towards taking the SAT. Since it’s a small group, you can expect sessions to be very interactive as you work together towards improving your SAT skills as much as you can! Note: Cameras should be on so we can all get to know each other! If you have a specific reason why you can’t have your camera on, please notify me ahead of time.

Hiii 👋 My name is Sofia and I'm a senior in high school. I'm Ukrainian but I've been living in the U.S for the past 3 years. I have a keen interest in how our brains work through which I acquired quite a few cheat codes for making learning easier. I also love experimenting with new cookie recipes, writing poetry, and binging detectives/true crime. I've previously tutored kids on everything from basic multiplication to irregular verbs.
