From a satisfied parent of a one of my college essay students.

"I can’t thank you enough for your guidance and support. The essays turned out to be such a massive undertaking—much more than we ever expected—and we never could have gotten through it without you. Like you said at the beginning, college essay writing is a very different style of composition, and you helped Sofia to think and write confidently in this new format. Having scheduled meetings helped her to stay on task and focused in a way that would have been next to impossible on her own.
I will definitely continue to recommend you to other students/parents."

Excellent Latin Lessons!
My 13 year old needed help getting up to speed in Latin at her new school. Naomi helped her finish her assignment and helped her grasp concepts she previously struggled with. We will be back for more soon!

Terrific AP Latin tutor
Naomi has been tutoring my high school daughter in AP Latin. My daughter had fallen behind in her class but in little time had caught up and even received an A on the first test since working with her. Naomi has a broad depth of knowledge and is very patient and encouraging - a great combination for a tutor!

Patient and knowledgeable
"Naomi is an excellent tutor. She has been able to engage and connect with my 12 yr old son. After only a couple in person lessons we have been able to move to remote sessions without loss of quality and interest from my young son. Latin is a very tough subject and it is being taught at an advanced level at my son’s school. Naomi has been able to break tough concepts down for him and explain in an age appropriate manner."

Dr. Finkelstein is absolutely one of the very best teachers our son has had the privilege to learn from. She has inspired a segment of the student population that thirsts for knowledge and intellectual engagement. Not only does she bring advanced degrees in the classics and 15 years of class room experience with Latin, she brings tremendous passion, a scholarly approach and a special connectivity to the students she teaches. It is clearly a mutually beneficial experience for teacher and student. As parents, this is quite rewarding and remarkable to see.

Excellent review for AP Latin
"There were a few concepts throughout my years of studying high school Latin that I was always just a little shaky on. Naomi was excellent- she helped me review a wide range of topics quickly and efficiently so I could approach my AP exam with confidence!"

My 6th grade student just got a 99% on his last test! Up from 76%

I just spent an hour with a 6th grade student whose teacher does not use a book, worksheets, or technology. I love a challenge, and I know I can help this student with my specific techniques.
