I am currently a graduate student at Yale University, enrolled in the joint PhD program in Classics and History. I have a BA from the University of Oxford in Classics. I have experience taking the SAT, SAT Subject Tests, and AP Exams, and I had a 3.8 (unweighted) GPA in high school. Because I speak German at home and have studied Latin language so rigorously in college and beyond, my skills in these fields are extensive and I have learned a lot about how best to teach these languages from some of my own teachers over the years.
I have two younger brothers whom I've helped with homework since they started elementary school, and I have experience babysitting and helping with homework outside of my family as well! Through my babysitting experience and my love of academia I became interested in tutoring. I'm patient, hard-working, and very passionate about giving my students the best possible experience I can.
I have loved languages since a very young age. I speak German at home with my parents, and took Latin to AP level (grade 4 on Latin) through grade school. I got above 700 on the Latin and German SAT subject tests. I studied Classics at Oxford and am currently a PhD student in Ancient History at Yale, two institutions which pride themselves on their rigorous language training. Again, I am very patient and love spreading my love of languages.
I received a 5 on the English AP Exam and love reading and writing. My undergraduate course requires me to write 4000 words a week, so I have gained even better writing skills than I had in high school. I have always been very good at grammar, and my study of Latin and Ancient Greek has only solidified this. I often helped other students when they were studying for the SAT and for English tests during high school, and have paid close attention to how my own teachers teach.
