Welcome! Are you looking for help prepping for SAT/ACT/GRE math or learning high school and university-level physics or mathematics?
If so, you are in the right place!
My name is Dr. Sonia Bauer and since 2003 I've been fully devoted to helping students get into great universities and learn AP Physics, university engineering physics, Geometry, Algebra I and II, Trigonometry, Pre-calculus, and AP Calculus.
I've also worked in preparing students for the quantitative portion of standardized tests (ACT, SAT, GRE) and Advanced Placement / International Baccalaureate curricula in mathematics and physics.
Study skills, self-esteem, mentoring and time management techniques are all areas I've found that students need support. Knowing that these areas are essential to success, I weave them into my tutoring sessions.
During a regular semester, it is a challenge to keep up with classes. And, often, the material that is most difficult just doesn’t get enough attention - there just isn’t enough time. Right now is an opportunity to learn concepts more deeply, hone skills that were skimmed over previously, or start preparing in earnest for that standardized test.
As I tutor, I also mentor students, giving them the opportunity to ask questions, ponder ideas more deeply, begin to understand a field of study or get a glimpse into the scientific community.
It is with great pleasure that I have the opportunity to assist students to succeed in their academic goals.

I look forward to hearing from you!
