Hello! I am a second year medical student at Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University, and I am very excited to continue tutoring students in the nearby area. I recently graduated from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign with a degree in Chemistry. In high school, I was a peer tutor for several students consistently, and I graduated from the Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy in 2012. I have tutored in ACT and SAT preparation, mathematics, chemistry, ASVAB, ...

Sonya does an awesome job breaking concepts down so that they're easily understood. She's patient, helpful and kind. She's extremely easy to get a hold of. She shares helpful websites that can be used for extra studying in between tutoring sessions. Our experience has been nothing but positive! Thanks Sonya!!

Sonya is really good at organic chemistry and always very patient with my questions. What's more, she is also good at understanding my meaning. Hope to have more lessons with her.

I contacted Sonya because I have been struggling with Pre Calculus due to having a bad teacher and she has made so many aspects easier for me. Sonya is great at explaining things and is also very patient. If you don't understand exactly what is going on at first, she will explain it until you do. She also is great at explaining the background information on why you are doing what you are doing to better help you understand the concept. I learn a lot better and easier with her help and would not understand nearly as much as I do without her explaining it in a way that I would understand. Sonya is a great tutor and I am very grateful for her helping me in her free time when I need it :)

We are very pleased to finally find a tutor that meets our needs. Sonya is patient, understanding and fulfills the student's needs. My daughters come back happy and confident after each lesson. They enjoy how well she communicates with them and pinpoints their struggles and works on it. I wish her the best.

I was a little nervous about hiring a tutor online, but now I am glad I did. Sonya is very kind. My daughter has very much enjoyed working with her. She is very knowledgeable in Algebra and very patient with my daughter. I highly recommend her.

Sonya is a very kind compassionate person with an excellent grasp of the material she tutors. She helped me out greatly in the time period leading up to, and through my summer finals. I would highly recommend her to anyone, especially anyone who struggles with anxiety along with their studies. Great tutor.

Sonya has a way of explaining challenging concepts with ease and uses examples I can easily understand! She is an amazing tutor and I am so grateful for her! Chemistry is challenging for me but knowing I can talk it over with Sonya makes me feel less anxious and more confident.

Gave me a refresher in some math issues I was having. Looking forward to working with Sonja more to improve my ACT score.
Sanket D. from Savoy, IL
She was very friendly and took time to get to know me. After that we actually worked on the material and she tried to understand what I was saying. Overall, she is very humble and friendly and knowledgeable! I highly recommend her if someone needs any sort of tutoring! She is easy to reach and works with you to meet your schedule!
Abby H. from Champaign, IL
I had to review and even learn part of an entire unit, but thanks to only an hour of tutoring I have a much better and more confident grasp of the material. 10/10 would recommend. :D
