I am a highly experienced tutor with over 7 years experience teaching and tutoring in private and public schools, as well as privately and online, in the UK, France and Spain. I am familiar with all major exam boards, and have been frequently noted for the passion and rigor with which I introduce and teach my subjects.
I am a firm believer in the idea that education should be available to all, and that there is is student without potential. I thus make a point to help the student see the attraction of the subject.
My methodology is focused on ensuring immersion in both the more theoretical and abstract principles of the subect and their application through practice and concrete examples. I aim to get the student applying themselves consistently as soon as possible, keeping a constant eye out for areas for improvement.
I studied at the University of Warwick, Sciences Po, and the Sorbonne.
I have worked as a teacher, tutor, translator, researcher, as well as business research and charity.
I am fluent in 6 languages: English, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and German.
I am also a teacher of Latin and Greek.

I have taught Latin, Ancient Greek, classical studies and English at GCSE, A-level and university level for twenty-five years. I’ve taught beginners up to Common Entrance at prep schools in Surrey and London for fourteen years, and SAT exams for US universities. My students, as well as gaining scholarships to top schools, have gone to Cambridge, Oxford, Bryn Mawr, and top universities. I’m experienced in online tuition (Skype/Facetime/ WhatsApp).
I enjoy sharing my love of language, grammar, literature, history, mythology and philosophy. I hope to find quirky ways to give insights into the ancient world and its impact on the present. I particularly love helping students overcome blocks and difficulties to rediscover the joys of language and and the magic of ancient cultures.
I have taught English as a Foreign Language in Brazil, Italy and the UK, from beginners to proficiency level, so have a particular awareness of difficulties with second language learning.
I teach Creative Writing at University of Portsmouth, and I’ve given workshops in libraries, universities, schools, prisons and theatres. I have also translated ancient and mediaeval texts for academic, legal and medical purposes.

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.

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 am a graduate of Oxford University. I tutored throughout my studies, and consequently have 9 years of experience - both in the UK and abroad.
I teach English Language and Literature, History, Latin and Greek and French up to A-level, as my main subjects.

I have taught at all levels, having worked with students as young as 5 years-old, through to A-Level students and adult learners. I have experience in preparing students for the ISEB Pre-tests, for 11+, 13+ and common entrance - English and maths.
I have successfully coached many students through the application procedures to top UK independent schools, including Eton College and Harrow School, and to top universities including Cambridge University and University College London.
I am a committed tutor and have consistently produced excellent results. I believe that effective teaching must focus on the student’s needs and must be engaging and fun. I always strive to bring the best out in my students.

Hi!
I am Tommaso, 27, and I was born in Milan, Italy. I am passionate, curious, and particularly fond of sports and arts.
I am currently a PhD student at University College London, working on C.G. Jung and analytical psychology. My latest teaching experience has been with MA students at the Health Humanities Centre (UCL), a course which seeks to combine the study of the history of medicine with the humanities. Besides, I am managing editor for Phanês, Journal for Jung History.
My tutoring experience started during my BA in Milan, approximately 5 years ago. I have privately tutored for students in the field of Italian literature, Latin language and literature, English, Philosophy. I have supervised students with their dissertations and helped them with their final exams.
In addition to that, I am a former pro football player (and currently a climber) and I offer one-to-one football sessions to kids of any age and abilities, which dramatically helped me to diversify my tutoring skills!!
Do not hesitate to contact me, I am looking forward to hearing from you!!

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 was Head of Classics at a prep school from 2010-2021. I got a Double First in Classics from Oxford and have taught and tutored from KS2 to A Level. My main focus is Latin and Greek but I also tutor 11+ Maths, English, VR and NVR and 13+ Maths. Tatler Schools Guide 2020 says of me 'Both parents and pupils are enamoured with Classics teacher Mr Aitken – one parent explains that ‘the boys really feel they can confide in him’'. The Good Schools Guide 2018 says of me 'The teaching is dynamic, making effective use of technology without sacrificing the rigour of more traditional methods. In a Year 8 Latin lesson boys were highlighting words they had problems remembering followed by a session based around pictures to assist visual learners. The image of a shouting clam (clamo) or a vampire sinking its teeth into its victim’s jugular (neco) certainly seemed to do the trick.'

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!

Kickstart your learning with a Pre University Latin tutor
The Pre-U Latin (or Cambridge International Examination) course bridges the gap between leaving school and beginning a University degree. As a highly academic and often challenging exam board, CIE prepares students for the rigorous learning at University level and equips them with the independent study skills they will need.
The syllabus encourages learners to read more widely, by studying Roman writers in both the original Latin and in translation and by reading modern works of critical scholarship. With the help of a Latin tutor, Pre U students can develop wider reading skills and understand how to engage with critical texts.
Having a tutor at this stage of education can be fantastic preparation for University study. Many students who study Latin will go on to follow degrees in Classics, Classical Civilisation or another ancient language-focused subject. Working one-on-one with a tutor prepares students for the small seminar groups and close discussion with professors required at University.
