Ready to Master Latin with a World-Class Educator?

Salvē! I’m a certified Latin instructor with 17+ years of experience teaching students across the globe—from beginners to AP and IB scholars. Whether you're in the U.S. or abroad, I make Latin come alive.

My students consistently crush the National Latin Exam, AP/IB Latin tests, and dominate in Certamen, Declamatio, and more. I am familiar with nearly all Latin textbooks – Wheelock’s, Cambridge, Oxford, Ecce Romani, Orberg—you name it, I teach it.

I’ve led Latin learners on unforgettable tours through ancient sites in Italy, Greece, United Kingdom, and France. In addition, I provide real-world depth with master’s degrees in History and Law, I connect Roman thought to the fields of legal medical, science, and the humaniites.

I’m deeply involved in the global Classics community through groups like the Vergilian Society and Society for Classical Scholars, Eta Sigma Phi, American Junior Classical League, Texas Classical Association, et. al.

Lessons are customized, challenging, and designed to spark a love for Latin—whether you’re prepping for exams, boosting translation skills, or exploring ancient literature or augmenting other studies in the professional world involving law, medicine, government, etc.

International and U.S. students welcome. In-person (Dallas/Fort Worth) and online options available.

Fantastic tutor!

My son, who is currently preparing for the AP Latin Exam with Gina's help, says that Gina is a great tutor. She is providing the assistance in the areas where he needs the most help. My son really appreciates her excellent teaching style.

Knowledgeable and Awesome Latin Teacher!

My son is 11 years old and a 6th grader. In his school, Latin is mandatory in 5th and 6th grade. Neither my husband nor I know anything about Latin and therefore, we came to Wyzant to seek help. We are so glad we found Ms. Gina. She is very patient, easy going, and most importantly, very knowledgeable about Latin. My son has had two lessons so far and he enjoyed every single one of them. During the class, not only she helped my son about his quiz and vocabulary, but also went an extra mile to introduce the history behind the language. Ms. Gina is also able to explain a difficult concept in a much simpler and easy-to-understand format. My son truly appreciates Ms. Gina and is looking forward to having many more lessons from her.

Enthusiastic Knowledgeable Tutor

I needed a Latin tutor for my high schooler in a pinch and here was Gina to the rescue! Prior to the first meeting, she dove in gathering all the information needed, therefore utilizing the full hour to tutor and guide her to success. Within minutes we could tell Gina was enthusiastic about the topic as well as knowledgable. Latin is a difficult subject but she made it fun and relatable. I do like to get some additional information on tutors and learned that Gina tutors for the AP Latin Exam tutorials, National Latin Exams, Roman History, Law and Literature and Mythology and geography of the Roman world. During her free time she is studying law and of course tutors pre-law, as well as pre-med, students on terminology and practices. She works with all levels and ages too. I will definitely be scheduling more sessions with Gina and highly recommend her!

Many thanks!

I noticed a renewed confidence in my son after just the first session. Gina did a fabulous job at helping him understand the concepts he was struggling with. He's excited about Latin again.

Excellent Tutor, extremely knowledgeable and easy to work with

Gina is an excellent tutor. My daughter remarked that Gina was very thorough and able to cover a lot of material in a two hour session with great clarity. She said she was very encouraged that she made real progress in just one session. She really liked Gina and plans to continue working with her.
