An award-winning linguist with a passion for everything you might want to know about words, how and why we use them as we do, as well as what they will do for you if chosen wisely.

As an undergrad at UC Berkeley, Miriam trained me in aspects of linguistics and computational linguistics; she supervised my work to conduct an experiment in natural language processing (NLP). She is passionate about every detail of the nature and structure of language and can convey complex ideas and distill information into easily understandable pieces. As a teacher with patience, she will ensure that you understand relevant concepts thoroughly and completely - she genuinely cares about her students’ intellectual growth.
Miriam also showed and taught me how to write an academic paper worthy of publication in the proceedings of a major computational linguistics conference. She knows how to break down the daunting task of writing a paper into manageable tasks and will support your efforts to learn this critical skill.
Miriam’s experience in the field of linguistics (computational and otherwise), as well as her deep knowledge of the Hebrew language and Hebrew linguistics brings a unique perspective to her teaching of these subjects.
I strongly recommend that prospective students choose Miriam as a tutor.
