Award-Winning Latin Tutors serving Houston, TX

As an educator, I help students meet their fullest potential, so they can grow academically with high self-esteem. Tutoring provides an opportunity for continual learning and growth. One of my hopes as an educator is to instill a love of learning. We all have strengths and weaknesses, and it's imperative we ask questions to reach our goals. My tutoring involves weaknesses in the following: reading comprehension, phonics, inference, writing, mechanics, college entrance writing, and more.

...University of Texas with a B.A. in Psychology. However, I am also passionate about language; I particularly love teaching/tutoring Latin and English.

Teaching has become a perfect coupling of my two fields of interest; I love...

I firmly believe that every student has the ability to achieve greatness.

As a teenager and a member of a family of 8 kids I had to take care of my little brothers and sister as my oldest took care of me. I am used to helping my siblings with their homework. This is because our parents were not allowed and didn't have a chance to go to school because of the...

...With that said, the greatest reward of my classical education has been not what I have learned but how it made me feel and where that feeling has lead me to a more complete and fulfilling existence. Within the context of the rapidly changing modern world, many lessons of the past are being foolishly forgotten that can serve us genuine good. Among the worst of such losses is, in my opinion, the richness of our connections...
