I'm a History tutor with 5+ years of experience. I am an Oxford graduate, who read Ancient and Modern History at BA level. This niche course took an incredibly broad view of history, allowing me to study such disparate subjects as Alexander the Great and his early successors (333-302BC), and modern non-state actors in Mexico (2006-2014). As such, I have experience in engaging not only with history (as it is traditionally conceived) at a high academic level, but with classics and international politics as well. I received a high 2:1 in my finals, despite the difficulties caused by sitting the exams during the coronavirus pandemic, and attained a strong 1st (72) in my thesis, which might be considered a more representative statement on my attainment, as it was submitted prior to the crisis reaching tipping-point in the UK. At A-Level I had an unusually scientific background, taking History (A), Biology (A*) and Maths (A), whilst achieving an A in AS Physics. Outside of more formal studies, I also read an extensive amount of 20th century classic literature and philosophy, and am teaching myself Spanish. On top of this, I competed in Blues Gymnastics while at Oxford, have a black belt in karate, and travel as much as possible (with an especial focus on the middle east). As I hope all this indicates, I have a broad range of interests which inform a holistic approach to education and suggest a genuinely inquisitive and engaging nature. I look forward to encouraging my love of learning in others, as well helping them to understand the material they are studying.

I'm currently the Head of Classics at a high performing boys' grammar school in the London area, with three years of teaching experience at top London schools under my belt. In addition to serving as head of department, I am an experienced examiner for OCR (Greek, Latin, and Classical Civilisation at GCSE and A level). I have a great deal of experience teaching students of any ability, having pioneered Greek and Latin language clinics at my last school as well as supporting candidates working towards Oxford and Cambridge entrance. I am driven, curious, and passionate about the subjects I teach. Having spent my teens and early adulthood acquiring proficiency in several languages, I am always eager to impart my particular expertise. Educated at Trinity College, I am used to working in a dynamic and competitive environment. During my university years, I worked as a private tutor of Latin, French, German, Irish, and English Lit & Lang. I also worked as a voluntary tutor on a university outreach program, teaching students from disadvantaged local schools. In addition, I spent three years as an academic mentor in my department, meaning I tutored groups of first-year undergraduates in Latin and Ancient Greek. As a new teacher and postgraduate student, I am eager to continue developing my craft. My approach is a holistic and highly personal one, and I strive to use that which drives and inspires each student to aid their education. I am highly adaptable to student needs and I am open to innovative and unconventional learning styles.

I have three years’ experience teaching in one-to-one and group settings. I am a Cambridge university graduate with a degree in Classics, and prior to starting my own business, I spent two years teaching English as a foreign language in the French Caribbean and France. Passionate about the French language I am an advanced French speaker and am equally excited by Latin and all things relating to the ancient world. Working as a Latin summer school teacher, I was commended for my ability to pass on my enthusiasm for the subject to my students. I also have experience teaching performing arts, having run my own dance school when I was 16 years’ old. As a mentor, I enjoy developing individuals and set out to help people achieve their best. Having successfully been through 11+, 13+ and 16+ entrance exams, with an excellent academic record, and listed as one of Elle’s top female entrepreneurs under 30, I understand that success first begins with your state of mind. Alongside coaching students through their subjects, I work with them to develop their confidence and instil a belief that “they can”. Subjects I cover: • Latin: all levels to A-level • Classics: all levels to A-level • French: all levels to A-level • Government & Politics: all levels to A-level **** About Me I am a performing arts enthusiast and my debut play has been shortlisted for multiple awards. I train regular to help develop a winner’s mindset and recently completed my first half-marathon. In my free time, I can be found curled up with an ancient philosophy book, eating cake or travelling abroad.

Soon after winning an academic scholarship to Eton College, I decided I wanted to study Classics at university. Whilst reading Classics at Oxford, I began to tutor in Latin and Greek; since then, I have taught both beginners and A Level/IB students and feel comfortable teaching at any level. Other teaching stints include working as an English teacher at a school in Tanzania and at a university in Myanmar. After university, I was an education worker for a year at a successful educational charity called IntoUniversity. My role at IntoUniversity involved running workshops in schools and a homework club for both primary and secondary school students (as well as giving UCAS advice). As such, I have a wide breadth of teaching experience- largely in the Humanities. My own interests are wide-ranging: in particular I love languages, travel and reading. This combination of interests has led me to undertake bike rides around Turkey (in the footsteps of Alexander the Great) and Uzbekistan (through the oasis cities of the Silk Road), and, more recently, a walk through Armenia. As a tutor, I aim to combine academic achievement with a passion for learning which goes above and beyond school curricula.

I have an M.A. with Distinction in European History from King's College London and Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, and a B.A. in Latin from the University of Oregon in the United States. I have five years' experience tutoring, both one-on-one and in small groups. I've had students of all ages and walks of life, and try always to look for my students' personal connection to a subject that really opens up their passion. I teach Spanish and Latin to all levels including GCSE, A-level, degree and US system. I also teach History, Gov/Pol and Classics. I've taught in schools and also conducted oral assessments and mock exams. I'm originally from the US, but I've lived in a number of places since then. I spent several years in Mexico, where I was a journalist and language teacher. I've worked for many years as a translator and I'm fluent or conversational in five European languages.

I earned my PhD in Classics many years ago, but all the while I have been teaching the subject I have continued to pursue it as a student. I have a great love of the classics. I've previously been the head of the Classics department at Queen's Gate School where I taught all Classical subjects -- Latin, Ancient Greek Ancient History and Classical Civilisation -- at all levels. I also helped students prepare for the Common Entrance examinations in Latin and Ancient Greek. I have tutored students individually over many years, including online in many different subjects including English, History and Philosophy. I walk my dog twice a day and have a keen interest in the sport of horse racing. Whether it's improving your grades or getting the most out of your studies, I'd love to help!

Teaching is my Passion but just a profession. I started teaching at a tender age of 12 and since then I've been teaching students from the age of 3 up to 74. I have taught Business, Economics, Accounting, Math, English, Sociology, Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Politics, Geography and History for GCSE/ OL and Advanced Level examinations for popular local and international exam boards including Cambridge, Edexcel, OCR and AQA. During my 22 years of formal school teaching career and more than 25 years of tutoring, I have produced most World Prize Winners who scored 600/600 for the above subjects in the above mentioned examinations consecutively over many years. I have also lectured at Universities and tutored for undergraduates, post graduates and PhD students and helped with their assignments and assessments over the years. My classes are interactive and fun to learn which make the students love not just like the subject. I discuss a range of past exam questions, self-prepared exams and training the students to improve their writing skills in theory subjects and improve their analytical skills in other. My most important asset of all is my flexibility and adaptability to the individual requirements and needs of each student and preparing myself accordingly. This skill I have gained by teaching students of all culture and age groups from 63 different countries.

I have 4 years experience of tutoring, coupled with 7 years classroom experience, working in independent schools. An Oxford Classics graduate with a PGCE from Cambridge University, I have taught Latin, Classics, Ancient Greek and English in a number of local independent secondarily schools as well as in private tuition. I love tutoring and developing the pedagogical one-to-one relationships with tutees. I am knowledgeable in my areas of expertise, organised, approachable and patient. I explain complex concepts in a clear and accessible manner, tailoring my approach to each individual student. I make lessons enjoyable and challenging through this approach, setting good examples and ways of working for tutees to emulate as they become gradually more independent with an approach that works for them. I set high standards for my tutees and have a proven successful track record of my tutees achieving the grades they need and want. I am reliable and a good communicator with a range of ages, backgrounds and abilities. I commit time to thoroughly communicating with parents and other clients about the progress and attainment of the tutee. I am also flexible and able to work round tutees' other commitments and schedules. I am easy to contact and aim to respond to enquiries within an hour.

I tutor History, Art History, Classical Studies, Academic Writing and Critical Thinking (TSA) to A-level, Cambridge Pre-U, IIB, APP(USA), and undergraduate students and in the University of Oxford`s International post-graduate programmes. I also advise Oxbridge candidates on interview techniques and assess admissions essays. In the Oxford tutorial style we explore a subject in depth by discussion, research and essays. I am very experienced at distance learning, using Zoom, Skype or Teams supported by tailored learning packs. My students achieve their potential, raise their grades and gain confidence from enhanced understanding of key points, learning how to research and analyse source material, and develop their ability to presentation their ideas and findings in clear, well-planned essays, all of which are transferable skills attractive to employers. I studied the history of Renaissance, Baroque, Romantic and Modern Art and Architecture at the University of Oxford, completed a doctoral thesis in maritime history, was a senior academic manager for the Bodleian Library, Oxford for ten years, and am a qualified teacher. I have taught for over 20 years, and consistently achieve good results in a structured but creative and motivating way, meeting my students` expectations and helping them to raise their game. My current students are studying Pre-U, A-level and undergraduate Classical Studies, History of Art, and early Modern and Modern European History, and I am familiar with current examination board syllabuses and top UK university courses in those subjects. My relaxed but structured approach using the Oxford tutorial style of mutual discussion develops confidence and enthusiasm and enables my students to achieve their full potential. They are helped to enhance their skills in research and analysis of source material and to create effective written work which improves their results. Recent students have been helped to lift their grades by more than 10%, often the difference between an adequate pass and a competitive good pass at A-level, and between a 2.2 and a career-enhancing 2.1 or a 1st at degree level. I am a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries and of the Royal Historical Society, and an Accredited Lecturer for the Arts Society, and formerly a Council member of leading historical societies. I am a published historian and consultant in art history and maritime history and a frequent speaker at conferences.

I studied Classics at King’s College Cambridge, where I was awarded a double 1st in Classics. I have several years experience tutoring Latin, Ancient Greek, Classical Civilisation to A-Level, and Maths to GCSE. From 2017-18, I worked as a teacher of Classics at Dulwich College, teaching Latin and Ancient Greek at all ages, on both OCR and Pre-U examination syllabuses. This classroom experience has been invaluable not only in solidifying my knowledge of syllabus requirements, but also in developing a clear and concise teaching method, and the flexibility to explain difficult ideas in a variety of ways. I believe that the best one-to-one tutors create a positive and approachable working environment, and experience tells me this is the best way to achieve high results. I aim to build a friendly atmosphere that allows students to push themselves towards their potential. I know that a key part of developing a student’s self-belief is pin-pointing the best method of learning for the individual, and as such I am always looking for different ways to teach a subject that might help build confidence and understanding - without losing a sense of fun!

I graduated from Oxford University in 2017, where I received my BA in Classics. The primary focus of my degree was Greek and Latin literature, though I took modules on Greek Art & Architecture and on both ancient and modern Philosophy too. I now work as a tutor in London, and have 5 years of experience tutoring students from age 8 to 18. I specialise in teaching Latin, and have worked with students at Common Entrance, GCSE, A-level and Oxbridge Application level. I have tutored English up to GCSE, and at 11+ and Common Entrance level, and non-verbal and verbal reasoning are also subjects I am happy to teach. My aim as a tutor is always to pass on my own enthusiasm for learning to my students, to keep the lessons engaging and interesting, and to tailor the work specifically to the individual.

What is Classical Civilisation?

Classical Civilisation is the study of the Ancient Greek and Roman worlds, including their culture, societies and people. It combines many elements of the humanities, namely history, literature, archaeology, geography and languages. Classical Civilisation students will learn about how Ancient Greece and Rome have impacted the western world and the legacy left behind through their art, theatre and democracy.

Is Classical Civilisation a good A Level?

Classical Civilisation is a good A Level because it teaches students a curiosity for the world around them, develops their critical and analytical thinking and teaches them the research skills needed for a degree. It's well regarded by admissions teams, as it shows students have a strong interest in the humanities, arts and culture.
