About Sophie
Hi! I’m Sophie, a Physical Geography graduate with an Honors B.Sc. from Queen’s University. I specialize in climate science, environmental systems, and academic writing, and I’m passionate about helping students build confidence in these subjects. My academic background includes research, fieldwork with Parks Canada, and a thesis focused on environmental change. These experiences have given me a strong foundation in both science and communication, which I love sharing with students at the high school and university levels. As a tutor, I’m approachable, well-organized, and committed to creating a positive, supportive learning environment. I tailor each lesson to your goals and learning style—whether you're preparing for a test, working on an assignment, or trying to better understand complex topics. I believe learning should feel manageable, engaging, and even a little fun. If you're looking for guidance in climate science, geography, or scientific writing, I’d love to work with you!

As a tutor, my approach is student-centered, adaptable, and grounded in real-world applications of science. I aim to build both confidence and critical thinking in my students—whether they’re preparing for exams, writing reports, or trying to understand complex environmental systems.
Teaching Methodology
I begin by identifying each student’s strengths, challenges, and goals. From there, I tailor my lessons to fit their learning style—using visuals, real-life case studies, and guided practice. I focus on explaining difficult concepts in simple, relatable terms, always encouraging questions and curiosity.
A Typical Lesson
Each session usually includes:
A short check-in or review of previous content
A clear breakdown of today’s topic (e.g., greenhouse gas cycles or structure of a scientific report)
Practice activities (e.g., data interpretation, outlining a paper)
Wrap-up and feedback, with optional homework or resources
What Sets Me Apart
I’m a recent B.Sc. (Honors) graduate, so I bring both academic training and empathy for students navigating today’s learning environments.
My experience with research and report writing helps students strengthen both their scientific understanding and communication skills.
I’m approachable, organized, and deeply passionate about climate literacy.
Who the Lessons Are For
High school students studying Earth science, geography, or preparing for university-level environmental studies.
University undergrads seeking support in climate science, scientific writing, or physical geography courses.
Students of any level who need help with reading scientific material, writing essays or lab reports, or studying for exams.
I’m here to make science make sense—and to help you feel confident using it. Let’s get started!
