Need help on fundamental Latin concepts? Look no further!

When the lesson started: I knew there were 5 declensions for nouns, and that verbs were conjugated in some kind of family pattern....and that's it. What I learned at the end of the lesson: an introduction into how personal endings, how the personal endings changed in the 4 conjugation groups, the permutations that happen in other tenses and then the changes that happen between the present and perfect systems. Also explained basic categories like voice, mood, etc. that I had seen a definition of but could not grasp from the book alone. By the end of the lesson, I felt confident in attacking the next chapters on my own with a better understanding of the categories Latin verbs work in. Why Anna made this the easiest Latin lesson ever: Instead of just adding "concept" to "next concept" in a jumbled pile, I felt Anna really gave me a bird's-eye view of how the systems of grammar worked. As I dig in to personal endings and tenses now I'll be able to see how they fit in to the larger scheme, which makes them both easier to understand and easier to memorize. Anna did a spectacular job of giving a "lay of the land" for beginning Latin concepts. tl;dr: Would definitely recommend Anna's tutoring, especially if you're confused on basic concepts!!!

Anna is Great!

My daughter fell a little behind in latin due to illness this year. Anna has helped get her back on track and fill in the missing grammar information. She is patient, personable, and very knowledgeable. I'm so glad we found her.

Anna has been a very thorough and patient teacher. My son's grades improved significantly after Anna started tutoring him. She is very pleasant to work with. She really understood the demand of the curriculum, and based her lessons on that, which helped in a better understanding of the subject.

Very knowledgeable and patient tutor

Anna has done a wonderful job working with my 11 year old son on his Latin homework. Anna is very knowledgeable and patient. In addition, Anna has worked to make my son more confident with a subject that did not come naturally. This confidence has led to better engagement and more excitement with school.

Kind, Professional, knowledgeable and enthusiastic

Anna did a great job with my 8th grade daughter whom is not the easiest to find a good tutor fit for. Anna was professional and her response time was so quick and just what we needed, as my daughter had a test she hadn’t anticipated needing help studying for until the last hour. Highly recommend!
