Ms. Sonia Y. Tan

Assistant Professor

Educational Background

MS in Mathematics,
Ateneo De Manila University

BS in Applied Mathematics,
De La Salle University

I graduated from De La Salle University with the Bachelor of Science Degree in Applied Mathematics (Cum Laude) and obtained my Master of Science Degree in Mathematics  at the  Ateneo De Manila University through a FAPE scholarship grant. My field of interest is in Combinatorics and Number Theory. “On the Infinite Number of Twin Primes”, “On Modified Farey Trees and Pythagorean Triples”, and “An Introduction to Zumkeller Number and Its Properties” are some topics that my thesis advisees and I worked on. “A Teacher’s Nomograph” published in The Manila Journal of Science was also another topic of interest of mine.  I have also co-authored “Calculus with Analytic Geometry Book 1” (1st and revised edition) and “Calculus with Analytic Geometry Book 2” during my earlier years of teaching at DLSU. My love, dedication and passion for teaching for the last 40 years was ultimately rewarded and recognized with the “St. Benilde Romancon Pillar Award for Teaching” conferred by DE LA SALLE UNIVERSITY during its 10th Annual Pillar of Lasallian Educators Excellence Awards.
