...have co-taught all levels of high school English, as well as Math I and II. I have also taught College Prep, which includes not only SAT and ACT prep but also coaching for college admissions essays. Back in my student days, I studied like a maniac and took more standardized tests than I care to remember. As a result, I was admitted to UChicago for undergrad and to Yale for my Ph.D. I'll be happy...

...and methods and hands-on experience with students of multiple ages and ability levels, I am experienced not only with assessing and meeting the needs of many different kinds of students in a range of subjects, but also designing and culling curriculum that will suit each student’s specific needs. In college I double majored in Chinese Language and Culture and Religious Studies. My studies of Religion have given me a strong background in the humanities, textual...

...to improve their academic success is to get to know their own style of learning. Systems that work for some people are a disaster for others, and the key is to find one that is suited to you. I believe in trying out a variety of learning approaches and adapting to what works best for each student. I am organized, curious, and relentless in my enthusiasm for sharing ideas, especially about government, law, and politics.

...goals because of these experiences. While at the University of the South, I took 5 education courses and tutored in Grundy County (TN) Middle School and Franklin County (TN) High School. Unfortunately, my school phased out their licensure program my sophomore year. I took a semester off and taught Outdoor Education at the YMCA of the Ozarks in 2010.

Today I am sharing the fruits of my exceptional education with students in the city. As an academic jack of all trades, my expertise extends beyond Writing and...

...I try to bring my love of writing to the study of language. I have been a tutor and a classroom teacher for four years, and my passion for education has taken me around the world. Some of my favorite tests to help students prepare for are those which combine language and history. I believe in bringing out what is most fascinating in the AP English and AP History programs: the stories and passions that...

...everything from basic math and reading skills to college level writing and test preparation. I most enjoy helping students with their writing because they can see concrete improvements from their hard work after a session. In addition, my education has prepared me to tutor subjects such as English, literature, American history, European history, and Latin, as well as test preparation. When working with a student, I always look for different ways to present the same...

...were in middle school. I got a MAL degree with a concentration in Sociology from Hollins University and taught part-time for a community college. I started teaching full-time (World History and Latin) and decided to branch out and became certified to teach Math and Algebra 1 ( I had never really liked Math, so I can really connect with Mathaphobes). I decided to become certified in Social Studies and English because I enjoy them. I...

...wide variety of topics. Classics, which could be broadly defined as the study of ancient world, demands proficiency not only in Greek and Latin but also history, literary criticism, and of course persuasive writing. I can consequently teach subjects ranging from Latin to English literature and composition. Besides Latin, one of my favorite topics to teach is writing. Writing is a chief personal pleasure and perhaps my greatest talent, and I derive just as much...

...years doing graduate work in the Classics at USC, three of which were spent teaching Latin and Ancient Greek to undergraduates while enrolled. While I can teach other subjects, the majority of my work comes in Latin and other Classical areas, and I've made it sort of a life's mission of mine to instill the same enthusiasm in my students about the ancient world as I have. I firmly believe that learning Latin is as...
