About Sylvia
Hello! I’m a native Chinese speaker with a strong academic background in mathematics. I graduated from a top university in China and scored 128/150 in the national college entrance exam (Gaokao) math section, as well as a perfect score on the GRE quantitative section. I also hold a Master’s degree in Financial Engineering in New York University and currently work as a financial analyst. My teaching is patient, structured, and results-oriented. I help students build a deep understanding of math concepts, whether they need support with schoolwork, test preparation, or confidence in problem-solving. With both academic excellence and real-world experience, I bring clarity, calm, and purpose to every lesson.

As a tutor with a strong academic foundation in mathematics and a Master's in Financial Engineering, I focus on building students' understanding through structured, step-by-step teaching. I explain concepts clearly, connect them to real-life examples, and adapt my approach based on each student’s learning style and pace. A typical lesson begins with a quick review of previous material, followed by an explanation of the current topic using guided examples. We then work through practice problems together, gradually increasing difficulty. I also encourage students to ask questions and explain their thinking to strengthen comprehension and confidence. What sets me apart is my combination of academic excellence—such as a top score in China’s national math exam and a perfect GRE math score—and real-world analytical experience as a financial analyst. This allows me to bridge the gap between theory and application. My lessons are ideal for middle and high school students who need help with algebra, geometry, precalculus, or standardized test preparation. Whether a student is catching up or aiming ahead, I offer a supportive, patient, and results-oriented environment.
