Bio

Hello! My name is Cole Whetstone.

I earned my undergraduate degree in Classics and Philosophy from Harvard University in 2018, and then went on to complete an MSt in Ancient Philosophy at Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford in 2020. During my time at Oxford, I taught Ancient Greek for Jesus and Harris Manchester Colleges and co-founded Oxford Latinitas, a society dedicated to reviving Latin and Greek in scholarly use. Now, I am back in NYC and working on founding a similar society at Princeton...

Hello! My name is Cole Whetstone.

I earned my undergraduate degree in Classics and Philosophy from Harvard University in 2018, and then went on to complete an MSt in Ancient Philosophy at Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford in 2020. During my time at Oxford, I taught Ancient Greek for Jesus and Harris Manchester Colleges and co-founded Oxford Latinitas, a society dedicated to reviving Latin and Greek in scholarly use. Now, I am back in NYC and working on founding a similar society at Princeton University.

I have over 10 years of teaching and tutoring experience, working with students from preschool to Harvard Professors and Oxford Dons. My passion for teaching and learning drives me to make every session engaging and challenging.

S.T.E.M.:

AP Calculus BC
AP Physics 1, 2
AP Biology
AP Environmental Science

I have learned Greek for the past 6 years and taught Ancient Greek -- spoken and traditional -- at Harvard and Oxford for the past 3.
Latin,

Latin

I have significant experience training students to success at the NLE, GSCE, AP Latin, SAT Latin Component, and Latin A-Level exams. I myself received 3 gold medals on my NLE exams in high school, a 5 on AP Latin, and a 740 on the SAT Latin Component. Moreover, I have had significant experience both teaching and learning Ancient Greek at both Harvard and Oxford, so if you are looking for a sense of what learning the Ancient Languages is like in that context, I'd be happy to help prepare you.

Algebra 1

In high school, I had a 5.14/4.0 weighted GPA, scored 1540/1600 on the SAT, and scored a 5 on 8 AP Exams, including AP Calc AB/BC, Stats, and Physics A/B. At Harvard and Oxford, I specialized in studying Logic and logical fallacies in Plato and Aristotle's philosophy. I have over 200 hours of experience helping kids with math -- which I mainly do as a hobby, because I enjoy teaching, and to keep my analytic skills sharp :)
