I am a University of Chicago alumnus and amateur philologist. My work primarily focuses on building vocabulary and deepening understanding of word usage through the lens of corpus linguistics (citing real word examples, among other methods). I focused on Russian semantics and vocabulary in my undergrad research. I am also a graduate of Staten Island Technical High School. I teach elementary Russian and help with SAT prep.
If you are struggling with English vocabulary for the SAT or in mastering the basics of a foreign language, I can provide help and employ strategies for tackling written examples in a relaxed but informational manner.
Cheers!

Anthony is very flexible, timely, personable, and forward thinking in his tutorage. I have had no significant issues at all relative to his teaching methods, and he is very willing to adapt himself to my needs as a student. He has been very open and kind with schedule changes and has not failed to be reasonable prepared (or over-prepared) for our sessions. He is patient and encouraging without being enabling. I do not understand the subject well enough to be one-hundred percent certain of his fluency, but i can presume from his etymological references that he is. I would recommend him to any and all individuals who need tutoring in this subject, or any others in which he is comfortable.
School tuition is high enough...
