Online Latin Tutoring That's Personalized for You
An individual tutor's hourly rate depends on experience and evaluation scores. All of our Online Latin Tutors have degrees in Classics (PhDs, MAs, or BAs) and have made it through Carmenta's very selective hiring process - we hire only the top 10% of all teachers who apply.
To hire a Carmenta online Latin tutor, please go the Hire Tutor page or call us at (212) 203-8734. Please let us know about your past experience with the Latin language, your goals for Latin, and your current academic situation.
Carmenta Textbooks and Educational Resources
Carmenta tutors teach the Latin language with the help of Carmenta's proprietary Latin Language Resources, which have all been authored and designed by Carmenta's Administrative Team. These Latin Resources include Summaries of Special Case Uses, Visual Vocab Sheets, Diagrams for Latin Prepositions, Conjugation and Declension Charts, and the Carmenta Conversational Latin Course textbook. Carmenta created these Latin Language Resources as a supplement to the textbooks used in our Latin courses, allowing us to simplify and streamline instruction of Latin grammar and conversation, as well as making it more fun!
Bespoke Tutor Selection
Our Tutoring Advisors work with you to select the ideal Latin tutor for your student. Following our Bespoke Tutor Matching process, clients first meet with one of our Tutoring Advisors over the phone. We learn about your student and give you advice on the ideal tutor assignment. Once you have provided us with a detailed overview of your student's schedule availability, we compile a short list of online Latin tutors who may be an appropriate match. We meet with you a second time 3-5 days later and provide you with detailed information for each tutor on the list, explaining their plusses and minuses and giving you our opinion of the relative appropriateness of each. This puts the client in an excellent position to choose a Latin tutor who will be a good long-term match for the student.
Your Student's Individual Tutoring Plan
Before the student meets with the tutor for the first time, our Carmenta Administration team creates the student's Individual Tutoring Plan, which outlines the student's current academic situation, goals, and curriculum that tutor and student will follow. This curriculum may be one of our existing Carmenta Courses, a variation on one of those courses, or unique curriculum that we have created for your student. The Plan may or may not include a Conversational Latin element, depending on the student's particular needs. Parents are sent a copy of the Plan and are encouraged to provide feedback. Carmenta's Tutoring Advisors meet with the student's tutor once every one to two months in order to discuss the student's progress in detail and decide if any adjustments need to be made to the Individual Tutoring Plan. After each of these meetings we send a progress report to the parent, outlining any issues and recommended changes.
