Award-Winning Greek Tutors serving Troy, MI

I am determined to teaching everyone in the way they learn best, not just one way.

...and I continued my study of the classics at the graduate level at Columbia University (2015-2016). While I am confident in both my quantitative and verbal skills, I consider my primary strength to lie in standardized test-taking, the process of which I profoundly enjoy, strange as it is to say.

...priority for me. In remembering my own experience throughout elementary, middle, and high school, I can recognize gaps in my understanding of certain subjects and where my strengths lie. I believe that from this experience I can fill in the gaps for younger students, building partially from my own academic experience and partially from my knowledge in specific areas, and then tailoring that experience to the needs of the student. I think it is difficult,...

...apply their knowledge. Education has the power to change lives and bring us a deeper understanding of the world in which we live.

This was reinforced during my undergraduate studies, when I worked with the university tutoring office, and was confirmed in graduate school, when I found I had a greater passion for teaching than for research. I have been involved in education ever since, tutoring students independent, serving as the math tutor at ITT Technical Institute, and most...

As current Director at IGO-CBC, I serve students, church affiliates, and independent clients with tutoring and coaching in the biblical languages. With ever growing questions and curiosity of what the bible originally says, there are great benefits in reading the original languages - and it would be a n absolute privilege to serve you on this...

...Miami, University of Michigan and New York University. A great tutor customizes instruction for the particular needs of the student. One must quickly diagnose the main areas the student needs to improve, so as not to waste time. A great tutor can see outside the box and be flexible enough to explain the same concept in a variety of ways, depending on the needs of the student. A tutor must be more personable with the...

...to be one of the better ways to live a life in service to others, and one to which I feel a particular calling. Education demands a broad skillset: deep knowledge of one's subject, organization, and the performance and creative skills to hold the attention of a room full of teenagers. Educators must be well-rounded people, and teaching classics requires a particularly broad knowledge base: one must juggle history, philosophy, religion, politics, culture, and more...

Education is fundamentally a partnership between student and teacher,...
