Passionate Future Educator Offering Tutoring
I have been studying Latin for seven years and I am majoring in Latin and Classical Civilizations at one of the top Classics departments in the world. I plan to teach Latin as a career, hopefully at the secondary level, and am minoring in education. I have extensive experience tutoring one-on-one, teaching grammar lessons, and leading spoken Latin lessons. I have tutored elementary through high school-aged students, resulting in an average of an 18% grade improvement and a 98% pass rate. I have also received 96% positive feedback from students and parents for approachability and competence.
