I have a strong background in Latin, German and ESL as well as one-on-one teaching and tutoring. In addition to this experience, I have a contagious enthusiasm about grammar and literature, which, although it can attract strange looks from high school-aged students, I believe is essential to getting them involved with the subject. I love reading all sorts of literature, and my ultimate goal is that my students develop the skills necessary not just to read and understand texts and conversations in foreign languages but to enjoy them as well.
