Sophia completed her undergraduate degree in Classics at Agnes Scott College (Atlanta, Georgia), before coming to Oxford in 2020 to study for her Masters in Greek and Latin Languages and Literature.
As part of her internship at the Centre for Teaching and Learning, Sophia is working on the Student transition to Oxford project.
While at Agnes Scott, Sophia worked in student transition as a Peer Advisor.
Through this position, she learned first-hand the impact periods of transition can have on students' academic performance.
I am excited about working with the team at CTL. The student transition project is an opportunity for me to learn more about the work being done in the field, and about how we can best implement some of these practices at our own university. Having very recently made the transition to Oxford myself, I am looking forward to contributing to making this process as smooth as possible.
