Eli

Certified Tutor

Hello! I am an experienced tutor that has done 4 years of tutoring, primarily focused on writing.

I strongly believe in being adaptable to a student's needs and goals and will adjust my teaching accordingly. I have an ear for the subtleties of specific words, and can help students understand the connotations and associations of the words in their vocabulary, helping them be precise in their language when the situation calls for it.

I have 8 years of Latin experience and can help you with translating Roman poetry or prose, or simply developing your grammar and syntax skills. I have much experience with Roman historians, particularly Livy, Tacitus, and Ammianus Marcellinus. I also have some experience with later authors like the Venerable Bede.

Trained as a historian, I am an excellent choice if you want help researching for essays and pursuing lines of historical inquiry. I am not limited to Classical history either, as I have an eclectic mix of other historical interests.

I am TEFL/TESOL certified and have experience working with ESL students on writing and speaking English for both formal and informal settings.

I aim to have fun, digestible lessons that bring a love of language and all the nuances that they provide. I look forward to hearing from you!
