Currently teaching in a large independent school in the west of England where I am Head of Classics. Currently specialise mainly in independent school entrance scholarship Latin, as well as Common Entrance 13+. Have many tutees studying GCSE as well, in particular those struggling with the verse Component of OCR (Virgil & Ovid).
26 years experience teaching Latin in independent and international schools; A level, AS level, IGCSE, GCSE, CE, 13+ Scholarship.
Latin should be fun and rewarding. I try to explain simply and clearly, taking students through the grammar step by step while reinforcing vocabulary. Confidence is a crucial part of what is often a technically difficult topic; a measured, well paced and structured lesson helps students find their self-belief and develop a firm footing in Latin grammar and vocabulary.
