About Henry
Hi, I’m Henry! I am in my 4th year at Yale University as an undergraduate student pursuing simultaneously a Bachelor’s Degree and a Master’s Degree in Classics. I know Latin and Ancient Greek. I have a particular interest in studying Vergil, Caesar, Pliny the Younger, and Euripides. I tutor through Yale’s Center for Language Tutoring in Latin and Ancient Greek; I have lots of experience explaining grammatical functions and some great tips for handling what at first may seem overwhelming amounts of vocabulary! My research focuses on the reception of Ancient Medical texts.
Given my research background, I am very experienced in writing academic papers. I have tutored many students to help them with formatting research papers, tightening up their prose, and teaching students how to perform a close reading of a text for their English class. In addition to tutoring students 1:1 to help with writing, I also have extensive experience teaching Math. I have taught Math in the classroom, particularly 8th-grade Math. I have extensive experience teaching students the intuition behind working with fractions and solving algebraic equations. I have also tutored online for the past 3 years through Teach For America’s Ignite Fellowship, where I taught 8th-grade Math.
I absolutely love helping students with writing and mathematics. When I was a Middle School student, I hated math and writing papers. It was only when, as a happy accident tutored some students in both subjects that I developed a passion for both. I remember how I used to think every day when I went to school, “If only math and writing did not exist, School would be so fun!” The fact that tutoring was what sparked my interest in both of these subjects is the same reason I love tutoring now. Not only do I love facilitating success among my students, but I also hope that I can spark the same love for writing and math that was sparked within me!

Latin and Ancient Greek are usually taught in the context of grammatical tables and charts. Students are then expected to simply memorize the charts. They are then expected to just be able to read the languages effortlessly afterward. But languages don't exist in a vacuum! I teach Latin and Ancient Greek through an active approach. No matter the experience, we read through different texts and work through the vocabulary and grammar as we go. For Math, I teach in small steps. I focus on explaining why we do a step rather than expecting students to simply memorize (like memorizing grammatical charts, that, too, is unnecessarily difficult!).
