    I have a Ph.D. in Latin (and a few other subjects) and over two decades' experience.

    I have a Ph.D. in Latin, Ancient Greek, and Philosophy, and further degrees in French and German, and thus more experience and expertise - having taught these languages in many countries - than the average teacher.

    About Ben B.

    5.0
    (4)
    I have several university degrees, including a Ph.D., in Latin, Ancient Greek, French, German, and Philosophy, and I have lived, studied, and taught for about two decades in France, Germany, and several other countries, and have native fluency in these and other languages. In addition to teaching languages, I am also a violinist, someone who has loved the instrument since childhood and has taught it for several years now. I studied the violin for many years under a well-known Georgian (former USSR) violinist. I teach all these subjects - Latin, Greek, French, German, and the violin - on all levels, from beginner to advanced, and all ages, from young children to senior citizens and every age in between. As always, whether it is music or languages and literature, practice makes perfect, and pursuing one's subject consistently is of the essence.

    For me, Ben is a wonderful tutor! As a new Latin learner, it is my pleasure to work with Ben this summer. His constructive and thorough tutoring plan makes me reach a higher Latin level at the beginning of my school year.
