About Ketty
I have a strong record of helping students improve their grades dramatically—often from failing to A-level performance. Whether you're facing an upcoming quiz, exam, or assignment deadline, I can provide focused, short-term support to help you succeed. I also offer ongoing tutoring that deepens your understanding of course content and enhances your academic performance.
As a professional linguist and experienced tutor, I’ve worked on various advanced projects in the field, including:
- Comparative Phonology (analyzing relationships between proto-languages and their descendants)
- Syntactic Theory (with a focus on X-bar theory)
- Semantics & Pragmatics (with real-world applications)
- Experimental Phonetics
I specialize in helping students grasp complex concepts such as phonotactic constraints, syllabification, and phonetic analysis. My research focuses heavily on these areas, making me well-equipped to support your academic journey.
Currently, I work with graduate and undergraduate students from several U.S. universities, providing expert guidance in courses like LING 100, LING 001, and LING 104. I assist students in tackling practical problems in Phonetics, Phonology, Syntax, and Comparative Linguistics.

I had a great experience learning phonetics and phonology with her. She has deep subject knowledge and explains theoretical concepts in a clear and structured way. Her examples and practice exercises really helped strengthen my understanding and confidence in linguistics.
Learning from her has been a truly enriching and transformative experience. She did not merely teach the subject; she ensured that I genuinely understood it. Her explanations are clear, well-structured, and delivered with thoughtful care, and she always makes sure that no question goes unanswered. What I appreciate most is her exceptional patience, sincerity, and dedication. During my tests, I had to reach out to her multiple times a day, and she responded every time with remarkable calmness and understanding. Each session left me feeling more confident and motivated. Beyond academic support, her patient and compassionate listening helped me overcome significant stress and anxiety. I highly recommend her to anyone who values deep, meaningful, and supportive learning.
Ketty is excellent at explaining complex topics in both phonetics and syntax in a clear, structured, and engaging way. She breaks down difficult concepts step by step and always makes sure I truly understand before moving on.
Highly recommended!!I highly recommend Ketty if you’re looking for help in linguistics—especially in phonetics, phonology, or any other core linguistics topics.
Before I started working with Ketty, I struggled with things like IPA transcription, syllable structure, and some of the more abstract phonological rules. But she broke everything down step by step and made sure I actually understood it. She always came prepared with examples, practice problems, and helpful tips.
If you’re taking a linguistics course and need extra help, Ketty is your go-to tutor.

I recommend Ketty as she is the best linguistics tutor. She does an extremely good job at making what she teaches very understandable and easy to learn. Great teacher!
She is very smart . I trust her more than anyone I worked with. She teaches me stuff that I didn’t even learn it in the university. She is also a good researcher ; whatever I found hardest time finding any articles, she immediately found one for me . She is also great in correcting papers. She have corrected some of my papers and she taught me how to improve my writing skills . I recommend everyone to work with her ! I TRUST her a lot ! Good luck!
Ketty is sharp, quick, and gives attention to detail. She is great at explaining and highly efficient. She helped me with my historical linguistics, Introduction to linguistics and Semantic assignments and quizzes and I got the perfect score in these courses just because of her help—I strongly recommend her for linguistics assignments, papers and projects!
Ketty was amazing! She explains everything in detail and very well! She is very enthusiastic, and makes the subject actually interesting! She helped me with syntax, morphology, morphosyntax and X bar theory which are obviously very complex topics, but I truly did understand it a lot more after the lesson with her. She was also very accommodating to my schedule and found a time that worked best for me! if you need help with anything linguistics related make sure you reach out to her. also let’s not forget to mention she was prepared and on time to the session, she was on top of the subject and even pulled different sources to help me understand her reasoning! She was the best :)
ketty is a very thoughtful teacher who puts a lot of thought into how she presents the material. Her lessons were engaging, useful, and she was very patient with me during the sessions, encouraging me to try and practice new things. I would highly recommend her to anyone interested in learning and getting wide experience in the field of linguistics.
Ketty is an expert linguistics tutor. She is very kind, knowledgeable and a professional linguistics tutor. She has helped me in completing many homework and projects; she is great at speedily helping with homework, quizzes and assignments. Moreover, she also helped me in my phonetics & phonology homework; she was thorough and wasted no time getting to the questions. She also explained me each point step-by-step and it really helped. I also got her help with a morphology & Syntax project where we analyzed the morphological & syntactic development of different languages. I highly recommend Ketty for linguistics!
