About me
Salvete! My name is Madelyn. I have taught Latin in high school for 13 years, and occasionally added English and Academic Decathlon classes to my schedule. I am an enthusiastic Latin educator with a genuine passion to share for the ancient Romans and the Classics!
I am certified by the state of Texas for grades EC-12 in Latin, grades 8-12 in English, and Gifted & Talented education. I have primarily worked with high school students, but my student teaching was in middle school, and I have run summer Latin programs for 4th-8th grade students. I have taught from the Cambridge Latin Course and Wheelock's Latin. I have taught AP Latin and given the National Latin Exam, and my students have consistently performed above the national average on both of these assessments. My preferred language instruction style is a reading method (student learns primarily by reading engaging stories in the target language); I also work well with the grammar-translation method.
Book a trial lesson with me so we can discuss your goals and how I can help you reach them! If you have a specific test you are preparing for or textbook you are currently using, please let me know so I can tailor your lesson.

Madelyn’s skills and style of teaching works well for my son. He needed support in Latin and when these areas come up, Madelyn provides clear explanations so he can understand his mistakes. We are very satisfied with his progress so far and are glad we found Madelyn.Kelly
