About Vern

I am currently a PhD student in Classics at UCLA and have a BA in Classics and a BS in Anthropology from Loyola University Chicago. I completed graduate work at Columbia University in the Classics department in 2025. My area of specialty is in disability and embodiment in Ancient Tragedy, specifically Sophocles and Seneca. I have experience as a T.A. and as a student language tutor. Here is a link to my graduate profile for more information about me and my interests: (concealed information)

About the lesson

I tailor my tutoring sessions to each students needs, building a strong foundation in grammar, syntax, and reading comprehension. I am happy to use any Latin grammar book or reading materials the student is assigned in class, and I often am able to help make homework and readings accessible to struggling students. I have made various helpful guides with grammar, explaining various rules of the language as thoroughly as possible. A typical lesson is suited for students who are at a beginning-intermediate level, especially for students who are just starting to read and would like to review their grammar and syntax in real time.

especially Latin. She can relate to the students who need help in understanding the language and sentence structure.

I am willing to negotiate price if $30/hour does not work for you. I aim to make language learning accessible to all while also honoring the time and work I put into teaching.
