About me

A real maths teacher who gets it

I'm Sophie, a York-based, UK-qualified Maths teacher with 6+ years of teaching experience.

I started my Maths journey from the small island of Guernsey, UK. Growing up, I had the most influential Maths teacher, which led me to pursue a career teaching Maths.

I have taught in the UK and at Brighton College International School Bangkok, and now support online students across UK curriculum and international school pathways.

I pride myself on being a positive role model to students, removing the stigma attached to Maths and making it fun and accessible to all.
