Dr Ammon is FANTASTIC!
Dr Ammon is a phenomenal Classical Philologist, interesting man, and knowledgeable sage within his craft. He is very kind with his feedback and doesn't mind giving me a good work out to ensure I'm making good progress toward my goals. I love to be challenged! He understands I want to use Attic Greek as a tool to read Marcus Aurelius' meditations and wants to customize my smaller goals to match my large goal! That is beyond useful to me and is a great way to keep me engaged in the madness that is ancient Greek. Hail to you, Dr Ammon and thank you for your guidance!

Exactly who I need to learn from
Dr. Hillman is exactly who I need to learn from at this point in my history. He is astute, fearless, and he emphasizes the importance of sources. I am a fan of his YouTube channel and I'm grateful to the muses for his accessibility and willingness to teach me how to fish.

Inspiring Teacher
Ammon is a very inspiring teacher (which I already knew going into it being a fan of Lady Babylon). He makes lessons laid-back and enjoyable, and is always encouraging, which gives me the confidence I need to keep going. It's a pleasure to work one-on-one with such a badass. Hail Satan.

Encouraging and Passionate Tutor
Ammon is as encouraging to his students as he is knowledgeable. As an individual that struggles with dyslexia and ADHD he recognizes my effort despite my setbacks, and I am reassured by his positivity to push through the struggles. His expertise is immense, and I look forward to learning much more from his lessons.
