Award-Winning Latin Tutors in Riverside, CA

Steven ...individuals in these subjects and have been told that my service has greatly improved their grades. I like to take a calm approach and utilize the person's strengths and learning abilities to derive a teaching method that will suit each individual. I also use simple tricks and memorizing techniques that the teachers may not use to help remember how to solve the problem. I am very happy when the person I am helping performs well...

Patrick ...and helping them to achieve their goals. I measure my success by what the student has learned and how well they have learned the subject. My favorite subjects to teach are history. I love studying the past and examining why people did the things they did. I enjoy helping students see how exciting and fun studying history can actually be. In my spare time, I enjoy bowling, playing Madden Football, reading books, and watching old...

McKenna ...all must do one day, is give back to the world and create some sense of fulfillment within ourselves by attempting to brighten the lives of others. With the light that education brought me, I now strive to help other students find that light within themselves and hope they love learning more, not only about classes, but the world around them as well. I first began by tutoring my younger brother's friends when I was...

Theodore ...Algebra, Geometry, AP Human Geography, AP Latin, and AP/regular Biology in high school as well as further experience with student teaching as part my duties as the president of my high school's academic decathlon team. Through this role, I prepared lessons and lectures and assignments for groups and individuals to ensure the students were fully understanding the material. Through these experiences I have encountered a wide variety of learning styles and have developed tools and...

Sean ...tutor mostly in these subjects as well. I have been tutoring since I was in graduate school for students of all levels and academic abilities. 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...

Josh ...this career path were it not for the same passion of my Latin and Greek teachers and professors. I want to convey that learning these languages can open up a whole new world of literature and culture, and enrich one's life in many new ways. Outside of work, I enjoy running every day. While in school, I made it a habit to get up early and run for at least half an hour each day....

William ...from a wide variety backgrounds, many from right here in San Antonio. I believe in helping students develop the best possible version of themselves by building studying and learning strategies based on their own skills rather than trying to fit themselves into a cookie cutter approach. I am really excited about the opportunity to work with students one on one. When I'm not in my classroom or writing research, you can find me volunteering in...

Brad ...world as I have. I firmly believe that learning Latin is as valuable for one's development as a student and a scholar as Math or English Literature. I also understand that learning it, especially at the introductory levels, can occasionally be rather intimidating. I try to make myself as relaxed, fun, and seemingly approachable while I am teaching/tutoring as I can to lessen the intimidation factor of that crazy dead language we're learning. Although I...

Mary ...Kaplan International. Maybe because of these experiences, my favorite subjects to help with tend to be those most involved with language - Latin, Spanish, Reading/Writing skills - as well as Psychology, a more recent passion. I'm also happy to assist students with math for test prep like the SAT and GRE. As a tutor I would consider my style to be supportive but challenging - I want my students to realize how capable they are,...

Kathy ...truth in this statement. No matter how fluent I am in Latin, I still have to look up vocabulary words. No matter how well I think I argue a point in my dissertation, my professors always have suggestions. The trick to being a successful student is not knowing everything; the best students know when to ask questions. As a tutor, I utilize a "back to basics" approach that allows students to take on the challenges...
