Latin and Greek (Ancient) Lessons in Lewisham

I am a full-time tutor and qualified teacher of Latin, Ancient Greek and Classics living in London. I have a First Class degree in Classics from Cambridge, where I also received my teaching qualification (PGCE). I taught Latin and Greek at a private school (Years 7-13) in London before pursuing other interests alongside tutoring. I am now tutoring full time online or face-to-face.

Tutoring Experience

I am a qualified teacher in Classics (PGCE, Cambridge). I taught Latin and Greek for two years at a private school in London to all years from Year 7 to 13.
I have been tutoring Latin and Greek for 10 years with 750+ hours of private tutoring experience, including 400+ hours online from primary to A level.

My tutoring experience includes:
Latin, Greek and Classics
Maths A level, GCSE, Primary
English as a Foreign Language (IELTS)

Tutoring Approach

My strengths lie in making my tutees relaxed and comfortable: my students work hard and learn not because they have to, but because they want to. I learn where my students need to improve and how my students learn best and adapt my sessions to their needs. Some students need to learn by rote, others need to put it into practice. However we do it, my students and I work together to reach our targets and achieve success with dynamic and enjoyable lessons.
