Amelia is a wonderful and patient tutor. She has really been able to help my son with Ancient Greek. This is a very challenging language and Amelia has been invaluable in the learning process.


Frank N. from Deerfield, IL

Amelia's help has been excellent. She gears her work to the specific individual needs of the student. She is helpful not only during a session but keeps in touch between meetings and sends useful information. She provides guidance to foster generalization of the strategies used when completing other assignments and tests. She is also very kind and pleasant to work with!


Martin L. from Columbus, OH

Amelia is an excellent tutor. She is personable, friendly, relaxed, and easy to work with. She is well-organized and works copiously with students. She has an extensive knowledge of Latin vocabulary and grammar in addition to a strong familiarity with important Roman texts, such as those of Plautus. Working with her will help you to improve your classics abilities.

Amelia is a fantastic tutor. She tutored my daughter in Latin this summer. We were worried about teaching styles and the ability of someone to have an impact for just one hour a week. Amelia is patient, interested in Latin, as well as Greek, and truly enjoys tutoring and teaching. She absolutely appreciated having a dedicated student who needed a reliable, organized and personable tutor. I definitely recommend Amelia. My daughter met with her a short distance from home. She is very flexible and easy going. My daughter just wanted to stay ahead of the game over the summer so that everything is fresh in her mind when she returns to school. She didn't need to be tutored but wanted and enjoyed the experience with Amelia. My daughter is a superb student who enjoys to learn, and Amelia is a fantastic teacher who loves to teach others.

We've gone over demonstratives and pronouns and and now we're working on how to form different tenses. I'm getting a great, very thorough review of Latin grammar and usage, and lots of practice translating!


Lisa D. from Chicago, IL

Amelia is using her teaching experience and skills to support my daughter in her beginning Honors Latin class. My daughter has not had formal grammar instruction at all so Amelia is working with her on that as it applies to her Latin comprehension and development. They have had 4 sessions and are making great progress is their relationship and my daughter's successful development in the subject of Latin.


Angela K. from Pittsburgh, PA

Amelia has a great way of connecting with my 7th grade daughter. She organizes the material in such a way that it is easier to understand. We are so happy with our daughter's improvement.


Brandon H. from Austin, TX

Amelia was very good and patient with me. I am not good in Latin and it takes me along time to catch on. She was able to help me with my paper. She is really good one on one.


Christopher L. from Clarks Summit, PA

Amelia is an excellent latin tutor and I highly recommend her due to her in-depth latin knowledge as well as her ability to teach and explain concepts to students. It's one thing to know the subject but another to be able to teach, she has proven herself in both of these areas. Thank you Amelia for all of your help thus far. She has been tutoring an early high school age student who has said how well she explains concepts and how helpful her assignment review has been.
