Carey T. Smith, MA

Credentials
Carey Smith is a professional teacher and Classicist. He earned his degrees at Georgetown Preparatory School (1992), Georgetown University (BA Classics, 1996), and the University of Virginia (MA Classics, 1999).

Experience
Carey taught Latin at all levels, from first year to Advanced Placement Latin IV, as well as levels I and II of ancient Greek, at Georgetown Preparatory School for 15 years. During his tenure here, he served for 7 years as Classics Department Chairman and strengthened the curriculum by creating homogeneity among the various teachers’ presentation of Latin grammar, syntax and translation tactics to 21st century adolescents.

Publications
Carey translated extensive amounts of 16th and 17th century Latin for two authors, John Glassie and Scott Pilarz, S.J., whose books, Athanasius Kircher: Man of Misconceptions and Robert Southwell and the Mission of Literature: 1561-1595, respectively, have met with critical acclaim.
