Private tutor in Columbus, OH
Education
I hold a Ph.D. and M.A. in Philosophy from The Catholic University of America, in Washington, D.C. My studies focused especially on logic, philosophy of nature, and ancient and medieval philosophy, and included a course in Latin paleography. I received my B.A. (Summa cum laude) in philosophy with a classics minor from Christendom College, in Front Royal, VA. I have been studying Latin since I was in fourth grade, and received a 5 (out of 5) on the Latin AP exam in high school.
Experience
I have taught philosophy, Latin, logic, and geometry at the college level and math at the middle school level. My first formal tutoring job, in the summer of 2014, was helping a high school student learn geometry. I have extensive experience working individually with students, helping them learn to write well, and enabling them to take control of their own learning. I especially enjoy working with students individually. My publications have appeared in the International Philosophical Quarterly, the Review of Metaphysics, The Thomist, and the Proceedings of the American Catholic Philosophical Association.
