Latin is one of my top subjects! I have over 20 years of experience teaching Latin, both on the college level, high school, and middle school. I have a B.A. in Latin and French from UNC-Chapel Hill and an M.A. in Classics (Greek and Latin) from Florida State University. I am very experienced in the classroom and am told that my explanations are second to none. I do my utmost to get students to grasp what I am teaching. I am very patient with students and cannot help but add a little humor to the classroom.

I have taught all subjects mentioned for a period of over 25 years, both in the United States and Japan. I received a teacher award in Japan for excellence in teaching. My own previous students endorse me as a good, or even great, teacher. As for subjects, I prepared teachers in international schools to teach AP Latin. I taught TOEFL at more than one level to college students in Japan who were seeking to study in the United States as well.
I have a very relaxed style of teaching. Not so relaxed that there is not order in the classroom, but a style designed to put students at ease and to put them into a mood for learning. I encourage participation, active participation in class, and I encourage questions. I seek to explain so that students understand perfectly, and I will not give up until I am convinced that all have a grasp of the subject that I am teaching.

Latin is one of my top subjects!

I've been a teacher of French at all levels (with a certification!!!!) and have a MA in French and a Ph.D. in French also. I have worked with the military program in languages and helped to write and create second language programs for Language Training. I have lived in France and traveled to French-speaking places for many years. I am able to meet in person or online via Skype or FT. I have excellent evaluations from colleagues and from students and have won awards in teaching. Don't waste money on someone who lacks experience or has never been a teacher! Language learning is also about learning another culture! Let an expert tutor you! $50 an hour

I enjoy working with children of all age ranges, and it is my personal goal to make learning a difficult subject less of a chore. I believe that having extra help can make a world of difference in academic success and increase the overall confidence and attitude in a child, as I am very aware myself, having had math tutors when I was in high school. My ambition as a tutor is to give your child the same enjoyment that I experienced in learning Chemistry and English. I am patient and dedicated and I strive for excellence—in my tutoring style I am open and willing to use different approaches to teach if needed. I ask questions and also try to tutor with a similar style to the student's teacher, which can be a critical tool during test taking.
Being a student at UNC Chapel Hill has challenged and inspired me to think creatively and achieve excellence in all areas of academia. As a seni ... read more

I hope to instill in my students a sense of individual responsibility by treating them with a shared level of mutual respect and trust. It inspires me to see students learn inductively, not through repeated lecturing, allowing them to develop the skills necessary to succeed outside of the classroom. I believe that anyone can learn what they wish with the proper combination of careful instruction, diligence and optimism.
As a Peer Tutor of Greek and Latin at UNC Asheville from 2008-2010, I led weekly tutoring sessions for groups of students in introductory and intermediate Greek and Latin. While I developed my own understanding of Greek, Latin and English grammar during this appointment, I gained an even greater understanding of the way different students learn and the means necessary to drive them to success. During my undergraduate career, I also pursued a variety of independent ... read more

As the child of a school system administrative professional, I have always spent extra time in the school environment. As a high school freshman I began to tutor elementary school students based on the needs highlighted by their teachers. I spent a lot of time working one on one with English as a secound language students. I assisted with their writting, reading, and basic math skills. Additionally I work particularly well with withdrawn children who need special attention.
My teaching style is simple. As it has not been professionally nurtured I have taken my ques from those I have taught. It is simply to provide what is needed. I prefer to spend time with a student and learn what works for them. I believe trial of multiple styles to find success is critical to each student. Additionally, there is nothing wrong with having fun while you learn!
