Most people don't notice it, but the world we live in is still very much a Greek and Roman world. Those two ancient languages are the best way to begin seeing how much we have inherited from that classical culture. They're hard, it's true; but I can help you do very well and enjoy it too! I'm a former Program Director for Classics at Boston Latin School (1999 to 2011) and I have a great deal of experience teaching at the collegiate level as well....

Peter came prepared with a document containing the passage I needed to work through, all separated out by clauses, which we worked on as a shared Google doc, was very helpful.

Peter is a wonderful tutor. He is very helpful and patient. He went through the history of the Latin, helped with the homework and projects. My son likes him a lot

Peter is very knowledgeable and knows how to educate the student in a methodical, interesting and patient manner. He has been able to assess quickly the areas my daughter needs to work on. To this end he incorporates other teaching materials and gives just the right amount of work for my daughter to do before the next class. He also makes recommendations on the amount of time and manner in which to study and better learn Latin. Thank you, Peter.

Very Knowledgeable about Latin Grammar, Stylistic techniques, and vocabulary. Peter knows a lot about Latin prose, and he is certainly one of the most knowledgeable Latin instructors I have met.

The effect of working with Peter was noticeable from the first lesson. Every lesson so far has been targeted to exactly what I need in order to improve both my Latin (currently AP) and my ancient Greek. I feel very fortunate to have found Peter - exceptional tutor!

Peter has been with us for nearly a year, first with both of our boys in Honors Latin last year and now with our son who is a Junior in AP Latin. Peter is an exceptional tutor who has given our boys tremendous insight into Latin and confidence in their ability to succeed with a challenging language. We have a lot of experience with tutors, and I am happy to say that Peter is easily one of the best. He is always prepared, patient, and professional. We couldn't endorse him more highly; just a terrific tutor!
- Chris W. from Jamaica Plain, MA
Really helpful advice from a good teacher. Very responsive and easy to communicate with. We feel lucky to have found such a great match. My son is taking Latin since 6th grade and is 9th grade now. He really wants to get serious with his studies this year. He feels grateful to have found a teacher to help him to catch up to the new level of learning.

Peter has been teaching my daughter Classical Greek online for three months, since she is in a semester program without a Greek teacher. He is incredibly knowledgable and patient, and has nurtured her love for the topic while teaching her a lot. Can't recommend highly enough!
- Fernande R. from Milton, MA
I am very pleased with the first lesson. Peter's answers to my questions we thorough, easy to understand and included the historical background. The slides used in the lesson were of great help. I look forward to the next lessons.

Sight reading and explanation of grammatical concepts. Explored nuances not well explained or highlighted in the book. Adapted very well to my capacity for learning. Very worthwhile lesson!

Peter was a great tutor for our son who is a junior in HS. He was excellent in communicating to set up the tutoring session, and arrived right on time. He has a soft spoken and supportive manner that worked well to help our son with his particular circumstances. I'd highly recommend him. Thanks Peter!
- Karen O. from Milton, MA
We hired Peter C. to tutor our son in Latin. He was patient, explained things well, and gave our son a strategy to tackle translation. He also gave advice on study skills. I think it is likely that we will continue to engage Peter C.
