I am an extremely passionate teacher with a master's degree in Latin and over 18 years teaching experience. I am the author of two widely used Latin textbooks published by Yale University Press. Hablo castellano bastante bien y puedo dar clases de latín en este idioma, también.
지도 경험
The focus of my lessons for all ages are very much on reading and understanding Latin. For adults, we definitely tabulate the language thoroughly, but it is*always* in a meaningful context, and only after we have encountered the structures in question in an actual Latin reading passage. My lessons for children are conducted in a non-threatening environment. The aim of the lessons is to help students learn Latin as a language, rather than as a series of rules to be memorized. They focus on reading and reading comprehension, and allows the students to both learn Latin in a meaningful way and have fun at the same time.
내 강의 및 지도 스타일
I bring a great deal of energy to my lessons. The history of antiquity, the development of Indo-European and Romance languages are interwoven into my lessons. My lessons are never boring, but always very much language focused.
We will choose together the best pedagogical approach / textbook / course to suit your individual learning style, interests, and long-term goals. I can suggest material to purchase or I can provide you with my own or public domain material. During each lesson we will keep running notes on Google Docs and at the end of every lesson I will suggest activities for you to do between our lessons.

Our daughter (almost 10-years of age) had a wonderful first Latin lesson taught by Brian. It is challenging but surprisingly good approach that Brian introduces Latin in the context of reading to our daughter who loves reading and has learned about the relevant world history/geography that gave her the context to get started (and finds relevant). She is certainly challenged in a meaningful and very friendly way. She said lesson is fun, and will definitely takes this great opportunity to have weekly lessons with Brian.

I never leave a lesson with Brian without improving my Latin and learning interesting facts about the classics. Brian makes learning a language as intimidating as Latin seem possible! I have been a student of languages for a while, having earned a bachelor's degree in modern languages, and I've learned more each session with Brian and Latin than I did in many of my college courses in modern languages, which are easier to teach and motivate the student in. I wish I could have a teacher like Brian in every language that I study! I've said it in many of my reviews of our lessons before, but if you're looking for a solid, knowledgeable, encouraging teacher of Latin, you've come to the right place with Brian!

Every lesson with Brian improves my Latin skills and at the same time increases my knowledge of Roman(and Greek)literature. I find Latin more and more fascinating. Thank you so much for your great lessons and wish you a pleasant week!

I’ve never had a lesson with Brian without improving my Latin skills. Moreover, he introduces a lot of background knowledge such as Roman history, architecture, and arts to me. Thank you so much for your great lessons and wish you a pleasant week!
