Alex M.
Private tutor in Taunton, MA
Education
I currently hold a Bachelor of Arts in Classics with Highest Honors from Emory University and a Master of Arts in Latin from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Experience
My work as an undergraduate has helped me build a strong command of grammar, analysis, and reading in Latin, Ancient Greek, and English. I am also able to assist in English, history, and writing. I have over 10 years of tutoring experience in Math, SAT Prep, AP Biology, and Latin. I have developed skills in communication by tutoring in both one-on-one and group settings. I have taught Latin 1-AP at a high school level and Latin 101 at a collegiate level. I am passionate about the Latin language and enjoy sharing that enthusiasm with others. In my experience as a teacher, I have seen students realize that studying Latin becomes more worthwhile than they thought it would be. Over time, even the most skeptical of students begin to appreciate Classical culture and its impact on Western civilization. Latin students advance their understanding of English vocabulary and grammar, and most importantly, they cultivate and refine critical thinking skills. The transformation of a hesitant student into a more confident one is a pleasure to be a part of and a privilege to witness. Ultimately, the ability to assist in many "aha!" moments motivates my decision to pursue a career working with students.
