Latin Tutoring
Latin is taught as a mandatory subject in gymnasium and other so-called classical high schools, located chiefly in Europe. In the United States, although once offered nearly universally, Latin is limited to elective status in a steadily declining number of grade schools, both public and private. Select a tutor today. Latin is an Italic language originally spoken in Latium and Ancient Rome. It, along with most European languages, is a descendant of the Ancient Proto-Indo-European language. Although it is often considered a dead language, a number of scholars and members of the Christian clergy speak it fluently, and both University of Kentucky and Iowa State (among others) teach it.

Lindsay K - Southampton, NJ 08088 (31.8 mi) - Latin Tutor - $46.00/hr.
I have recently graduated from Indiana University with a Master's Degree in English. As a graduate student at Indiana University, I taught a freshman composition course which focused on critical reading and writing skills. This past year I was nominated for the Best Teacher of Composition Award; this nomination was based mainly on the evaluations I received from my own students at the end of each semester. I was also a tutor for Indiana's Athletics Department; in this position, I have gained extensive experience tutoring athletes from various sports in a wide variety of subjects. My degree in English along with this experience has given me a comprehensive knowledge of grammar, reading, and writing along with the best methods for teaching these skills to students of all levels. My teaching strategy can be summed up in two words: encouragement and enthusiasm. I believe that once I have g

Alan v - Mount Laurel, NJ 08054 (37.1 mi) - Latin Tutor - $53.00/hr.
I have always been driven to excel by my passion for learning and sharing what I know. At Cornell University, I earned my BA in Classics in 3.5 years, completing the requirements for both the Latin and Ancient Greek majors independently. I also explored related topics like: History, Linguistics, Near Eastern Studies, Philosophy, Reception Studies, English, French and German. My broad-based skills set provides me with a unique grasp of the Humanities, especially reading and writing skills. For the last four years I have designed and presented courses on Leadership and Organizational Development for my Fraternity at regional conventions, along with volunteering to help other students with writing and foreign language work in school. My drive for teaching comes from my belief that any person can learn anything (and enjoy it!). My teaching philosophy strives to accomplish two goals: first,

James G - Woodbury, NJ 08096 (39.7 mi) - Latin Tutor - $40.00/hr.
My best teaching style involves facilitating group discussions. I particularly love the one to one teaching experiences while tutoring. I like facilitating the learning experience rather than just imparting information. It is a process of mutual discovery where teacher and student embark on a journey to discover truth. I have a strong educational background in liberal arts. I am particularly adept at writing and philosophy, but can teach most areas on a high school or grade school level. I taught High School students, made presentations to classes, tutored middle school children, and have taught elementary children as well.

Hannah G - Bala Cynwyd, PA 19004 (50.8 mi) - Latin Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I am a patient and creative teacher. I tailor my approach to the individual personality and learning style of the student. I enjoy working with children and am determined to help them bloom, whatever the subject matter. I am personally a lifelong learner, and my ultimate goal is to share the experience of academic discovery in a structured and useful way. I am a recent graduate of Oberlin College, a school known for producing "lifelong learners". As a Neuroscience major, I studied many areas of science, including biology and chemistry, but am also proficient in English and Art. I have previously been an assistant camp teacher in early childhood education, but I have also taught animation techniques to children ages 8-14 in a summer internship position with the National Children's Museum in Washington, DC.
