Jeremy learned Latin and Greek as a high school student at Phillips Academy, Andover, where he was blessed to have the finest teachers he has ever known -- masterful, charismatic, kind-hearted paragons of the old tradition, who served both as academic mentors and quasi-grandfathers. It is due to their influence that he has pursued a career teaching the Classics, and it is their model that he still follows in his own teaching. That model is above all personal, both in its inspiration and focus. Its inspiration springs from the teacher’s own passion for the subject, which promotes student engagement and enthusiasm, and in its focus, the student, it is infinitely tailored to the student’s individual needs and proclivities. One-on-one tutoring is the highest expression of that approach and yields unparalleled gains in student progress, a fact that has long been appreciated at Oxford, for instance, where the tutorial method still reigns, despite its significantly greater cost to the university.
