About James

For seventeen years I taught all levels of Latin and Greek at the University of Houston and for two decades was director of Classics, teaching Latin 1 to AP and English at The Kinkaid School. I have also been a professor at Rice University and the University of California at Santa Barbara. In the classroom and while tutoring, I have helped many students, including the neurodiverse, to succeed in standardized tests. I prefer a calm atmosphere for optimal learning; I'm flexible, compassionate; and I can offer strategies to overcome test anxieties. My students have called me "passionate, knowledgeable, and kind."
