Award-Winning Latin Tutors
serving Reading, PA

Studying political science at Penn means Alessia regularly encounters Latin in its natural habitat — legal maxims, constitutional terminology, and the Roman political vocabulary that still shapes how we talk about governance today. She teaches Latin 1 through 4 and uses that real-world context to anchor grammar lessons, so students learning subjunctive mood or indirect statement constructions can see exactly where those forms show up outside a textbook. Rated 5.0 by students.

Antony holds both a bachelor's and a master's degree in Classics, which means years of sustained reading in Latin prose and verse — not just a semester or two of grammar drills. That depth shows when he teaches syntax: he can walk a student through a dense periodic sentence from Cicero and explain exactly why the subjunctive appears where it does, connecting grammatical rules to how Roman authors actually wrote. Rated 5.0 by students.

Studying Spanish, French, and Portuguese at the graduate level has given Mia an unusually sharp eye for how all three Romance languages trace their grammar and vocabulary back to Latin — she knows exactly where a tricky conjugation pattern or case structure resurfaces in its modern descendants. That multilingual perspective turns Latin lessons into something more like detective work, where students trace roots and grammatical logic across languages they may already recognize. Rated 5.0 by students.

Psychology textbooks are packed with Latin — from "corpus callosum" to "in vivo" to the diagnostic terminology that runs through every subfield — so Melissa's BS in psychology keeps her bumping into the language's vocabulary and word-formation logic constantly. She uses that clinical and academic vocabulary as a bridge into declension patterns and root analysis, making new grammar feel less abstract and more like decoding terms students will actually encounter. Rated 5.0 by students.

I'm also a recent graduate of The New School, with a Bachelor of Arts in Literary Studies.

I am friendly, reliable, and most importantlycommitted to helping you learn! It is my top priority to create a positive learning experience that will help boost your test scores without boring you to tears. After all, shouldn't learning be fun?

I am most passionate about SAT/ACT Reading and Writing, Spanish, History, and ESOL. I enjoy being a tutor because I love to help students strive for and achieve their goals! I believe every student learns in a different way, which is why I personalize my tutoring approach to fit YOUR needs. I am familiar with the SAT and ACT reading and writing sections, and I can help students improve their scores by walking them through practice questions AND giving them my own testing strategies. I know the SAT and ACT can be stressful for students, but I prepare them so that they walk into the testing room feeling confident and ready!

I am a student at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU). I have spent a large portion of my life outside of the United States and am fluent in Spanish and currently studying Arabic as well. I was homeschooled for much of my life and loved it, but completed my last three years of high school in a public school and am thus well acquainted with the various forms of standardized testing. When I'm not studying I like singing and theatre, reading, playing the piano, climbing trees and doing anything outdoors. I have been tutoring Spanish at CMU for a year now, and am also well versed in History, Geography, and Math. I look forward to working with.

I am a writer who works extensively with historical documents and researcher who embraces learning for life. I love making a subject engaging, interesting and ultimately seeing others succeed in their endeavors.

Having completed Penn's post-baccalaureate program in Classical Studies, Michael knows Latin from the inside out — not just declension tables but the way a periodic sentence builds suspense or how subjunctive mood signals a Roman author's uncertainty. He takes students through grammar systematically while always connecting forms back to real passages from Caesar, Cicero, and Vergil so that translation feels purposeful rather than mechanical. Rated 5.0 by students.

A college English professor with dual degrees in the field, Toni knows how deeply Latin roots and grammatical structures run through the English language — every lesson on cases, conjugations, or syntax doubles as a window into why English works the way it does. She teaches Latin as a discovery process, encouraging students to piece together translations by recognizing patterns rather than relying on word-for-word lookup. Her 4.9 rating speaks to how well that active, student-driven approach lands.

Dennis's Latin studies through AP level sit alongside his physics and math work at Princeton — an unusual combination that means he treats Latin grammar the way he treats a physics problem, breaking complex sentence structures into their component parts and solving them systematically. He's especially effective with the kind of precise syntactic parsing that AP Latin demands, where identifying an ablative absolute or untangling a periodic sentence requires the same logical rigor as modeling turbulent plasmas.

An English degree and a Master's in Acting mean Joseph has spent years dissecting language from the inside — scanning meter, breaking down rhetoric, and performing texts where every word's Latin origin carries weight. He brings that same close-reading instinct to Latin grammar, treating each sentence as a script to be decoded through its cases, tenses, and clause structure. Rated 5.0 by students.

As a Classics major at Carleton who aspires to teach high school Latin full-time, Emma has spent years immersed in the language — not just grammar drills, but reading original texts alongside Ancient Greek and the historical contexts that bring both languages to life. She covers all four levels plus AP Latin, and her weekly tutoring at a nearby high school means she's constantly refining how she explains everything from first-year noun declensions to the subjunctive constructions that trip up advanced students.

Studying all four levels of Latin while pursuing a history degree at Dartmouth means Vivian reads the language where it actually lived — in the political speeches, legal codes, and historiographical texts that shaped the ancient world. She brings that context into every lesson, so students learning subjunctive mood or fourth-declension nouns can see those structures doing real work in passages by Caesar or Cicero rather than in disconnected grammar exercises.

Between his psychology studies at Yale and his German coursework through level four, Stephen has built the kind of cross-linguistic awareness that makes Latin's grammatical architecture feel less foreign — German's case system in particular maps closely onto Latin's noun declensions. He also prepared for the SAT Subject Test in Latin, which means he's drilled the vocabulary, syntax, and translation speed that classroom exams and standardized assessments both demand.

Zachary's PhD work at Harvard sits squarely at the intersection of German philosophy and classics, meaning he reads Latin not as a classroom exercise but as a daily tool for engaging with primary texts in their original language. He teaches all four levels and is especially sharp on the grammatical precision needed for dense philosophical and literary passages — ablative constructions, purpose clauses, and the kinds of nested relative clauses that make students' eyes glaze over until someone unpacks the logic holding them together.

Peter's history degree means he's spent years working with primary sources where Latin isn't decorative — it's the language of legal charters, church records, and the political documents that shaped Western civilization. That historical grounding gives him a concrete reason to teach case endings and verb forms: students learn to parse real inscriptions and texts, not just textbook exercises. Rated 4.8 by students.

Declining nouns and conjugating verbs is just the entry point — Kelsey's BA in Latin means she's spent years reading Virgil, Ovid, and Cicero in the original and understands the grammar at a structural level. She breaks down tricky constructions like ablative absolutes and indirect discourse by connecting them to how Latin authors actually used them, making the language feel purposeful instead of purely mechanical.

Classics majors don't just study Latin — they live in it, and Sarah's undergraduate work means she's spent years translating original texts across genres from poetry to philosophy. She teaches all four levels with particular strength in helping students internalize the subjunctive mood and indirect discourse, two areas where rote memorization fails but understanding the underlying logic pays off.

Holding a Master's degree in Latin, Catherine doesn't just teach the language — she lives in its literature, grammar, and history at a level most tutors can't match. She covers every level from Latin 1 through AP, with particular strength in guiding students from early declension patterns into reading authentic prose and poetry with real confidence. Rated 5.0 by students, she also teaches Greek, giving her the kind of cross-classical perspective that illuminates how Latin syntax and vocabulary function within the broader ancient world.
