Advanced undergraduate majors in Classical Studies can usually tutor Latin and/or Greek through grade school and high school and into the earlier undergraduate levels; graduate students often possess prior collegiate or pre-collegiate teaching experience and can generally tutor at any level in the languages that they have studied.
