Tutoring
I got my start as a tutor at the College of New Jersey, where I received formal training and gained experience as a tutor in History, Writing, Latin and Greek. Since then, I have had several paid clients who I tutored in college Greek or Latin, helping me to keep my advanced Greek and Latin skills fresh.
I also spent some time as a tutor in Wyk. Wyk is on the island of Föhr, which is one of the islands in the West of the state of Schleswig-Holstein, the state shown in light green at the top of the map. During my time there, I tutored secondary school students taking English or Latin.
I tutored over 60 hours as a volunteer tutoring and teaching 6th-10th graders in English and Latin. I led groups ranging from one to six students, and I tutored about 5 hours per week.
I also tutored students on the island privately for 20 hours, mostly in a two-student to tutor setting.
This position gave me experience using games and activities that are useful for students in this age group. These activities can be used in a Latin or Greek classroom with only minor variations. One is described in the attachment below.

I have also had success in using worksheets to target specific tasks students need to work on. Attached below is an example of one I used with students.
