I have taught Latin and Greek in the classroom at Barnard College, Columbia College, Union Theological Seminary, Fieldston, and in New York State public schools. I have extensive experience working with people of all ages and demographics, including graduate school, college, high school and middle school
Over my 30 year career as a teacher and tutor, I have developed tried and true techniques for learning vocabulary, and grammar, along with a 7 step translation strategy that transitions students from composed to authentic Latin.
