Interested in a class I offer but not available when sections are offered? Interested in a related subject that I don't offer a specific class for at this time? Does your learner have a specific set of interests they want to talk about, or are you looking for a curriculum designed just for your student? It's choose-your-own-adventure in this one-on-one class. I'm happy to do a set class length, individual sessions, or ongoing sessions; whatever works best for your family. Some examples of...
- Students will develop their analytical and critical thinking skills by engaging in independent study with an experienced instructor.
- Students will actively engage with historical, literary, or philosophical material that gives them a greater understanding of themselves, their world, and their culture.
- Students will have the opportunity to develop their writing and communication skills by working on and completing individualized projects with one-on-one guidance.
I have a BA in Philosophy with minors in Political Science and Greek and Roman Studies, as well as an MA in Philosophy with a concentration in Ethics and Political Philosophy. I’m the head coach of a competitive high school debate team and teach the liberal arts at a classical school. I’m also a professional creative writer and journalist. I love helping students of all ages understand and interpret difficult subjects and learn how to crystallize their thoughts in writing and oral communication. I believe studying the humanities is a wonderful way to facilitate this kind of growth and learning.

If I develop a set curriculum for your student, I will expect them to follow it and keep up with all assignments for the duration of the course.Calificación

I will provide an individualized list to each student after the course of study is determined.
I pride myself on being neutral; I do not approach my teaching from my own beliefs or pre-conceived notions about the world. I expect the same from my students. For a truly rigorous humanities education, no idea can go unchallenged or uninvestigated in an age-appropriate manner. As such, parents and guardians should understand that should they sign their student up for one-on-one instruction with me, I will approach the subject at hand with the academic rigor that it demands. Students should expect to be exposed to a wide variety of potentially controversial and divergent views in any humanities study. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.
