Sophus Ng is a Graduate Coach with InGenius Prep and an AI and Education Consultant with over three decades of experience at the intersection of mathematics, cognitive science, and instructional technology. He holds both a Bachelor of Arts with Honours and a Master of Arts in Mathematics from the University of Cambridge, a Master of Arts in Instructional Design and Technology from Nanyang Technological University (NTU), and a Postgraduate Diploma in Education from the National Institute of Education (NIE). Based in Singapore, he brings a rare combination of elite academic credentials, national research experience, and deep specialist knowledge of Oxbridge admissions pathways.
Sophus is among the most specialized Oxbridge Mathematics coaches available to students today. For Cambridge applicants, he provides expert preparation for the Sixth Term Examination Paper (STEP) and offers insider-level knowledge of the Cambridge Summer and Winter Pooling System, helping families navigate offers with confidence rather than uncertainty. For Oxford applicants, he coaches students through the Test of Mathematics for University Admission (TMUA), with a focus on building genuine problem-solving fluency rather than surface-level test technique. He works closely with each student to develop an authentic personal statement and leads rigorous STEM and philosophy mock interviews designed to replicate the real Cambridge and Oxford experience.
Beyond his admissions work, Sophus brings serious research credentials to every student he coaches. As a Research Associate at NIE’s Learning Sciences Laboratory (2005-2009), he contributed to the development of AlgeBar, an AI-driven tool for learning algebra, and GroupScribbles, a collaborative classroom learning platform. As an independent Educational Consultant, he has supported government-funded research initiatives including Singapore’s Science Multi-modal Critical Thinking Project (2012) and the Creative Transfer of Learning Framework (2022), and has facilitated workshops on metacognition and strategic pedagogy for teachers, parents, and students. He also built SchulberatungGPT, an AI tool designed to support metacognition in community learning. Earlier in his career, he taught Mathematics and coached the Olympiad Team at Raffles Institution, one of Singapore’s most prestigious schools.
As a Graduate Coach, Sophus specializes in helping students think clearly under high-pressure conditions. Using chain-of-thought scaffolding grounded in his instructional design training, he teaches students how to structure complex reasoning across mathematics, science, and philosophy — turning a strong application into a genuinely memorable one. Having navigated personal adversity himself, he brings a steady, encouraging mentorship style that transforms application anxiety into intellectual confidence.
