I decided during my fourth year that I wanted to become a teacher, but I needed experience, and I wanted to concentrate on Latin instead of Greek.

Read More About John R...

I have been teaching Latin actively without interruption since 1978. I have been teaching in public high school for 19 years and have continued to tutor throughout this time. I have continued to produce students who consistently score 700+ on SAT II in Latin.My students are now studying Latin at all the major colleges in this state. I have repeatedly worked with students of college age and even adult learners.
I am expert in the simple,but effective explanation of Latin grammar and the creation of learning experiences that create learning. I have also used computer tech to supplement more traditional teaching method. I can save a willing student hours of frustration by properly orienting them and showing the steps that learning and applying Latin will require.
