...passionate about creating engaging lessons that are tailored for each of my students. As both a classroom teacher and a tutor, I have gained invaluable experience about how to help students, all the while learning so much about life from my students themselves. Besides tutoring, I make my living writing content professionally for several ed tech companies. Outside of work, I love to hike and play with my dog. I am a huge traveler and...

...degree in English at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. I have always worked with students in different capacities, most recently as a professor at a local community college. I also have experience tutoring students in everything from basic math and reading skills to college level writing and test preparation.

...in Latin, as well as a teaching certificate for Secondary Latin and an endorsement in Secondary English. While I was in graduate school at CU Boulder, I worked as both a private tutor and as a tutor for Student Athletic Services.

...philosophy is focused on a student’s growth and increasing his or her ability to work independently. First I explain and discuss the information and strategies the student needs. Then I point out instances where the student can use the strategies (and guide the student through them if need be). Lastly, I back off a bit, allowing the student to use strategies on his or her own. In the Writing Center, this process has given students...

...Roman and Greek History. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Latin, European History, and anything to do with grammar! My teaching style is fluid; I like to incorporate other disciplines so that I can help my students develop their weaknesses by playing to their strengths.

My first academic love is Latin and the Classics- I really enjoy helping others develop their skills with the language and gain an appreciation for the culture and history of Rome. In my spare time I love to travel, especially to Italy and Greece, whenever I get the chance. I also enjoy...

...is philosophy, which as a kind of over-arching discipline concerning the knowledge of what is, disperses me into many of the various subjects within which the joy of thinking can inhabit. I am excited to work with students and learn from them and see the ways in which their thinking can develop, as well as help them acquire the skills to succeed in their courses. In my free time, I enjoy playing music (piano, guitar...

...Social Studies. My experiences, patience, content knowledge and communication skills all make me a great tutor. I have worked with students from the age of 8-18, with students in remedial classes and others in Advanced Placement classes. There are many ways for children to learn. I personally learn visually and with repetition, but I willingly adapt to each student's learning needs. I have learned that with patience and practice, every child can learn.

...as I can to lessen the intimidation factor of that crazy dead language we're learning. Although I grew up in Boston, I moved to Los Angeles in 2006 to enroll at USC and (in large part due to the weather) have never left. At the moment I spend most of my time as a full-time high school Latin and Ancient Greek teacher at a private school in Los Angeles, but in my free time I...

...intensive German at the Goethe Institute in Berlin, and received my MSc in Palaeopathology from Durham University in the UK. In addition to this, I am a certified TEFL instructor.

I consider myself to be a lifelong learner, and I pursue new subjects with the goal of enriching...
