About Joseph
Hello, my name is Joseph, and I am a student at the University of California, Berkeley, specializing in Ancient Near Eastern languages and cultures with a focus on Akkadian and Luwian. (My own studies have given me experience reading and analyzing authentic ancient texts, and I enjoy helping students develop the same confidence and analytical skills. I also have four years of tutoring experience, helping students develop the skills and confidence needed to succeed in language learning.

I offer lessons in learning Akkadian, the cuneiform writing system, and Luwian (both hieroglyphic and cuneiform). Cuneiform is the oldest writing system in the world and deserves to be preserved! I have dedicated my life to learning the writing system and its languages, along with the history of these ancient civilizations. Join me in learning this unique skill by booking a lesson with me.
I specialize in helping students understand not only what a language means, but also how it works. By focusing on the structure and logic behind grammar and vocabulary, I help students build confidence whether they are preparing for school, university coursework, or learning for personal interest. My goal is to make grammar, translation, and vocabulary feel logical and approachable rather than overwhelming. Every lesson is tailored to each student’s goals, learning style, and experience, creating a highly personalized experience.
I focus on clear grammatical explanations, effective vocabulary-building strategies, and guided reading practice so that students develop both confidence and independence. During reading practice, we will work through texts step by step, while discussing the grammar and reasoning behind each translation so that you develop the skills to read independently.
Learning a language opens the door to understanding its history, literature, and culture. Whether your goal is to excel in a course or explore the ancient world, I would be delighted to help you achieve it. Feel free to book a lesson or send me a message with any questions.
