ABOUT ME

The secret weapon in successful tutoring is true passion for the subject material. I’m thrilled every time one of my students begins to understand a grammar concept or reads alone, and that enthusiasm for both small victories and language and literature that is yet to be studied is contagious. 

 

I studied Latin and Ancient Greek at Oxford University in the UK and achieved an Oxford MA, Second Class First Division with an Open Exhibition Merit Scholarship. During the course of my studies, I was required to research and read the works of Homer, Herodotos, Thucydides, Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Plato, Catullus, Cicero, Caesar, Lucretius, Propertius, Tibullus, Ovid, Vergil, Livy, Tacitus, Horace, Seneca, St. Jerome, and St. Augustine.

​

I’ve tutored since 2007 and have worked with over 200 private one-to-one students. I’m therefore familiar with most courses and textbooks. I am a certified Latin AP instructor and my students regularly get 5s on the Latin AP. 

​

I’m based in New York City and am thrilled to be able to teach students all over the world using remote meeting platforms. I like to keep my information private, which is why I haven’t listed my last name on this website. I’m happy to provide references or a resume upon request.​​

“The Real housewives of pompeii”
written & performed by 7th Graders in Latin

A group of four girls I was teaching in a small private class learned that they were of marriageable age in ancient Rome and immediately came up with the idea of a “Real Housewives” reality show. We wrote a skit and translated it into Latin. The girls stayed up all night making historically accurate costumes and memorizing their lines. The rest is “history”.
