In tutoring any of the traditional subjects (Latin, Greek, formal/informal logic, rhetoric, critical thinking), I emphasize the objectives common to them all: (1) acquisition of context-specific vocabulary, (2) a feel for the flexibility and polysemy of a given word's lexical-semantic meaning, (3) a comprehension of the text's thematic, stylistic, and evaluative undertones and progression. The three, taken together, require us to formulate arguments by sifting through material, with an eye to analysis on how texts are crafted for presentation in terms of form and content. The result is an understanding on how these three are essential for reading, arguing, and, ultimately, thinking critically. Subjects Tutored: Besides the aforementioned subjects, I also tutor for calculus and chemistry. I earned my B.A. from Tulane University magna cum laude in classical languages and philosophy. I

Creative. I try to make learning fun. I believe that the problem is that kids don't find learning fun so they don't want to do it. I've been tutoring my classmates, neighbor's kids & friends for a long time in specified subjects and with specific assignments. My speciality is a tie between Social Studies and English. My favorite moment is when they get that look in their eyes when they finally understand something and say "Oh! I get it now!"
