Each lesson and plan of attack is by design between both the client and myself. Sometimes, with the amount of material I've garnered and procured over my years instructing at the secondary levels and tutoring at undergraduate levels. Our classes are always a continual conversation, where we assess, discuss how fluency is going, and whether we need to pivot and slow/hasten the rigor of instruction.
I also have an educational TikTok, YouTube, and Podcast (Latin in Layman's- A Rhetoric Revolution) which has brought people to seek me out in order to just START learning Latin. Most of my clients are actually not in a Latin class, they just simply want to learn and grow.

I embrace the concepts of being a lifelong learner. Everyone is growing up in this world… Throughout my time instructing, I’ve come to learn that while my students are growing up into this world, so is everyone else, regardless of age: I am, while my parents are, while you are, while your parents are, while my students’ parents are, while… Well, I digress. Life is truly humbling when you embrace the fact that you’ll never know everything (even if you tried.) Therefore, my philosophy revolves around learning for the sake of learning. Latin has imbued this in me since my genesis in teaching it; something as esoteric as a “Dead Language” actually lays roots in medicine, the legal discipline, culture, mathematics, history, etymology, Anthropology, Chemistry, English grammar, et cetera! Regardless of whether a student will use “the quadratic formula” or “subjunctive grammar concepts” or the understanding of an “acute vs. obtuse angle” later into their lives isn’t the point nor goal of education; it’s the aspect of learning something new and investing in our brains like we do in all other facets of our lives that we care about… The point isn’t “why” are we learning these concepts but rather “how” can these disciplines open up my understanding of the world around me more so than before? I am always explaining to my students that school is essentially “Brain Gym.” If we didn’t workout our brains, they’d atrophy, just like with our bodies and souls; we are having to always invest in ourselves in one way or another; there are always means for us to grow and progress.
I love learning for the sake of learning. Now that I’ve flayed open the language of Latin, it excites me to teach my students the way in which the understanding of Latin and language amplifies the world around an individual. As my students hear me reiterate time and time again: “The more you know, the more you know. And that just makes you more confident.” My Latin class has become an “everything” class! It urges my students/audience to critically think about the world around themselves: from Etymology to language acquisition to the understanding of patterns and geometry. It’s a panacea of knowledge if you treat it right; little do we know that the objectivity of Latin’s “Dead-languageness” allows us to see and appreciate its utility in modernity!
At the end of the day, that’s what I truly believe instruction is: a lifelong effort. The beauty about Latin is that it seamlessly interconnects so many different disciplines into its own scope… I know I’ve done my job well when my students come back to me after a year of instruction to tell me: “Now I see why we learn this dead language. To show us how “not-dead” it really is. Now I understand, Mr. Connerly. Thank you.” (A direct, but not verbatim, quote from more than a few of my prior students.)

Liam has an excellent understanding of geometry, and even incorporated Latin terms into his explanations, which helped me to better understand my other classes! I would recommend him to anyone looking to better their understanding in many subjects!
I’ve known Liam for 20 years and have observed his absolute professionalism in both the work and personal environment. Liam will go above and beyond to ensure that his students will be experts in the respective subject matter. If you need a tutor, Liam is the only choice.
I have employed Liam several times and know him to be trustworthy honest and dependable. He is very clear thinking and kind when he must explain something. I highly recommend him and I only wish he was still in my employment.
