Let's get back down to the basics (Latin, History, Science)

I like to boil things down to the basics. With Latin and Science that means learning as much as one can about the basic elements and then building one step at a time on those basics. In history, it means learning the story, and telling the story.
I recieved a BA degree from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I majored in Classical Civilization (with a Latin Concentration) and History. I have 12 years of experience teaching Latin. The courses I have taught include introductory courses, Latin I, Latin II, and Latin III. 3 years of Life Science teaching experience. 4 years of History teaching experience (as a tour guide and history interpreter) 12 years of experience teaching writing as well.

Latin is one of my top subjects! I am currently working on a Certificate in Latin at the Catholic University of America, but previously I had taken Latin throughout High School.

I am currently completing a Post Baccaulaureate certificate in Greek and Latin from the Catholic University of America. I had taken Latin during high school and worked as a tutor during that time. I am looking to begin tutoring again and hope to become a High School Latin teacher upon completing my program in December.

I am a current student of Arabic (experience in Modern Standard Arabic, Egyptian, Levantine, Saudi) and Russian at university. I have previously studied French, Medieval French, and Latin (among other languages) and consider myself knowledgeable on the topics. Currently, I am a mentor to ESOL students and peer tutor to those in Russian and Arabic.

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from Vanderbilt University in May 2010, and I am currently applying to medical school. In high school and college, I tutored in math, science, English, and test prep. Math and Science are my favorite subjects, but I also have much experience with tutoring English and grammar. I have also tutored people preparing for tests such as the ACT, SAT, and Gateway.
I always look forward to tutoring new people becuase I not only get to make a difference in their life by helping them master what they're struggling with, but I also get to learn about people and different learning styles. I view tutoring as a way to help others while improving my interpersonal skills. I value all the skills I gain from tutoring because they will be assets when I become a physician. Working with all ages from kindergarten to college has taught me patience and how to conform to different people's need ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I studied Latin and Greek as an undergraduate, as well as French, German, and Russian, because I've always loved languages, especially hard ones. For the last nine years, I have tutored Latin to students ranging from those in middle school to college students and adult learners. Wanting to pursue my study of Latin and Greek further, I took a Master's degree focusing on the later life of these languages in the Middle Ages and how they grew into modern languages. I'm now a lecturer in Latin at a local college.
The key to teaching and learning Latin is patience. My approach combines traditional methods--for example, grammar work and vocabulary exercises--with newer methods that bring the materials alive for the students--for example, stories, word games, and projects. Nine years as a teacher has taught me a lot. Whether your student is struggling with the basics or ready to do more ad ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a daughter of a professor I have learned that studying and learning is one of the most important things in life. Knowledge is priceless and a good that no one can take from you. Therefore I was very ambitious in university. I have started off with International Development but continued my Masters in Arabic in less than two years, because I was so focused and interested. During school I found out that one of the best ways to learn is to teach others. That was the point when I found that teaching was my call.
Teaching is more than just transferring your knowledge to somebody else, it is sharing a different point of view a new culture and exploring new things. My interpersonal skills are my best asset, I am patient and fun, but when it comes to the important aspects like studying I can also be strict and focused, which I think are important aspects in each learning process. I ... read more
