P.S. Big difference teaching an adult (DH) and a middle schooler!

Put together a resume and contact Latin teachers/language chairs at schools that teach Latin. Many schools have a group of tutors with whom they regularly work, but surely there's room for more. Also there's TutorsOnCampus.com, for distance (Skype and email) tutoring at the college level. They were launching last summer but I'm not sure if they got up and running.

All I can say is that as someone learning a romance language, I really wish I'd taken Latin previously. You can easily advertise on Craigslist and see if you get any hits.

I was trained as a classicist -- Greek and Latin -- and used to tutor students in the less advanced classes. Recently, DH decided he wanted to learn Greek so I pulled out my old textbooks and it's been a blast. Now I'm wondering if tutoring on the side might be a fun way of making a little extra money and doing something slightly more intellectual than changing diapers. (I SAH with a baby.) I also have a lot of experience with academic writing and have helped teenage in-laws with college essays, but I imagine there's a lot more competition in that field.

Anyone have experience as a tutor? How did you get started? DH is still in touch with his HS Latin teacher at a DC private school, so that might be an option. This is mostly just idle speculation at the moment, but I thought I'd see if anyone had any useful thoughts. Thanks!
