Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I work a lot on motivation and the desire to succeed as best as possible.
My teaching method is simple and is adapted to the student.
With the help of homework and tests, we define their difficulties together with the student, in order to be able to see them during teaching.
It's about combining pedagogy, seriousness and a smile.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Currently in my final year of Medicine, I graduated from the Athénée Robert Catteau, Latin-Sciences section, where I started giving tutoring classes as a volunteer, concerning various subjects: Latin, French, Chemistry and Dutch were the classes I taught the most. It was also about re-motivating students who had lost their goals.
I would like to share my knowledge and the advice I would have liked to receive during my school career.
Sometimes, all it takes is a little help to change the idea we have about a subject and even end up appreciating it.

Education

Private lessons

Nisha
Private lessons in all subjects (secondary: Latin, French, Dutch, mathematics, English, biology, physics)
I am an applied student, I have already given private lessons on several occasions and to several students. I will explain to you the course of a typical day: you come with your course, you tell me what is wrong and I will explain everything to you. Then we end with a series of exercises and tests to see if the material has been assimilated.

Kevin
Non-academic Latin lessons. Multilingual teacher with 9 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, conceptual semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.

Italian language and literature - Latin language and literature
I am a fully qualified Italian (native) and Latin teacher, and language enthusiast. I am currently teaching GCSE and A-level students in a Sixth Form College in Oxford, but I have taught Italian and Latin in Italian Lyceum high schools for two decades. The courses I offer include GCSE and A-level preparation, university admission preparation, university undergraduate courses, and Italian for adult learners (all levels). I hold a Laurea summa cum laude in Lettere (Italian and Latin Language and Literature) from the University of Verona, a PCTHE (two years) in 'Teaching Italian and Latin Language and Literature' from the University ‘Ca’ Foscari’ of Venice and a MA on Didactic of Italian Language from the University ‘Tor Vergata’ of Rome. My preparation and my long-term experience has allowed me to acquire and develop different language teaching methods so that my classes are tailored to suit the learning style of each student.

Latin tutoring for middle and high school students
Latin is a rather subtle language and for some, almost enigmatic, as the style, vocabulary and syntax can be confusing. However, a few tips are enough to find your way through what seems like a labyrinth to the uninitiated. Don't panic! A practical method exists that will put you at ease when faced with any Latin challenge. The delicate syntax of this language will no longer be a torture for you and you might even find it fun to practice reading and understanding texts that previously seemed hermetic to you. Reading, analyzing, understanding and translating a Latin text is possible. And even - why not? - writing in Latin. As an experienced teacher, I offer you supervision (online or at home) taking into account the learner's level and adopting the most appropriate method for adequate monitoring. Online, the sessions will be recorded, if the listener wishes, and the video will be available for revision. You will have the rigor that this ancient language requires, today more current than ever. Declension, conjugation, syntax will always be a passion for you, by following the method that we propose to improve your level. You will soon translate texts from Latin to French (version) and from French to Latin (theme) in a simple and effective way. If you are an intermediate (non-exam) student, looking to upgrade and fill the gaps that could potentially hinder you in the exam class, you will find the skills and experience competition to be sure to meet the challenge. Whatever your fear or certainty of the weakness of your level, our promise is to raise you to performance. If you are a student in an exam class, you will find, through various media, the resources allowing you to get up to speed and approach the tests with confidence, with the certainty of a positive result. The difficulties that founded your fear or your aversion to Latin will soon be nothing more than ancient history! Yes indeed! We have already supervised auditors online or in person with satisfactory results, using a method centered on the learner and taking into account their abilities and limitations. We proceed with a flexible method according to the level of development of the auditor/learner to avoid any dropout that may arise from reluctance or apprehension. For you non-Latinists wishing to acquire knowledge in Latin for various uses or objectives, this course will allow you to have a good introduction to this classical language. You will now be able to read and understand simple to complex structures, access texts independently to increase your general knowledge or achieve your objectives according to the needs or requirements of your activity.

Latin for Beginners: prep for entrance exams at 13+
In this Latin course, I offer "Common Entrance at 13+" training (including scholarship papers) for those students who have studied Latin for one or two years, and would like to revise, do translations and read from fun books such as Minimus or So you really want to learn Latin. Plenty of cultural stories and mythology in the mix, besides battles and august men. A basic understanding of grammar (or willingness to learn) expected. Ideally, students ought to be doing Latin at school and preferably have a second language (a Romance language ideal for securing a higher grade).

Latin, Ancient Greek, Biblical Hebrew Lessons and Tutoring
As a graduate with a BA in Latin and Ancient Greek and a MA in Biblical Hebrew, I offer private Latin, Ancient Greek, and Biblical Hebrew classes both for students who seek private tutoring and for those who wish to learn these languages even more in-depth. My classes a personalised according to the student's need: understanding school material, preparing for exams, or advancing language skill. In all instances, there is emphasis both on grammar and reading literature appropriate for the student's level. Students who have no preliminary knowledge of these languages but would like to learn to be able to read the Roman Law in Latin, the works of the Greek philosophers like Plato and Aristotle in Greek or the Bible in Hebrew are also welcome.

Ian
Living Latin through Comprehensible Input (Contemporary and Medieval Latin)
You will learn Latin the way it was meant to be learned - through conversation! Medieval scholars and contemporary language researchers alike advocate the use of dialogues and comprehensible input for language acquisition, and it most certainly works! As opposed to the "memorise grammar rules and then babble them in front of the class" approach that was demonstrated by the infamous "Romanēs eunt domus" scene from Monty Python's "The Life of Brian", you will learn to feel the grammar, so that you will be able to use the different cases of Latin without even thinking about it, just like a native speaker! For this class we will be using the following books, depending on the learner's level: Hans Øreberg's "Lingua Latīna per sē Illustrāta" "Corderiī Colloquia" Erasmus Rask's "Colloquia Familiaria" John C. Traupman Conversational Latin for Oral Proficiency I will be the collocutor and I will answer the learner's questions and explain certain oddities solely in Latin (I will use a second language only when the situation calls for it) We will also engage in free-form conversations, discussions of the dialogues, of our life experiences etc so that the learner can apply what they learn to real-life situations and expand their vocabulary

Andrés
Ancient Greek, Latin and Spanish Language (online and face-to-face)
Hello! I am Andrés and I have a degree in Classical Philology. I teach Latin and ancient Greek classes, at all levels, both for school reinforcement and if you want to learn these two languages for pleasure. I like to teach these subjects based on new methodologies that make learning them more enjoyable and pleasant for the student. In addition, I like to complement the teaching of these languages with culture and history classes, since it is very important to know the context in which we move in each class. Anyway, I adapt to the needs of each student. I also teach Spanish Language and Literature reinforcement classes, both for Primary, ESO, Baccalaureate students, and those who take the University entrance exams. Flexible schedule.

Meine Lehrmethode baut auf Beispielen auf, sodass du schnell das Gelernte anwendest. Schreib mir kurz, wo du dich im Spracherwerb befindest und was du erreichen möchtest. Zu mir: Ich habe während meiner Schulzeit einen Altsprachenwettbewerb gewonnen, anschließend in Köln, Oxford und in den USA Latein und Altgriechisch studiert und meinen Doktor in den alten Sprachen abgeschlossen. Seit 15+ Jahren unterrichte ich Schüler/innen und Studierende in Latein und Altgriechisch von der weiterführenden Schule bis zum Ende ihres Studiums. Ich habe an Gymnasien nachmittags Nachhilfekurse angeboten und an Universitäten als Dozentin in Latein und Altgriechisch gearbeitet. Auf dem Gymnasium habe ich mich in die antiken Sprachen verliebt und anschließend die antiken Schriften und Kulturen von Homer bis in die Spätantike erforscht. Mir hat besonders Gefallen, dass die antike Literatur alle Themen abdeckt – Mythen, Philosophie, Dichtung, Kriege, Politik, Geschichte, Naturwissenschaften... Das Unterrichten hat mir immer Freude bereitet, besonders wenn ich auf die Interessen meiner Schüler/innen eingehen kann. =============================== Latin becomes easy if you know how to decipher it.

About me: I won an ancient language competition while I was still in school, then studied Latin and ancient Greek in Cologne, Oxford and the USA and completed my PhD in Classical Studies. For 15+ years I have been teaching Latin and ancient Greek to students from secondary school to the end of their university studies. I have offered ancient language instruction at high schools and universities. In high school I first fell in love with ancient languages ​​and continued by researching ancient writings and cultures from Homer to late antiquity. I particularly like that ancient literature covers all topics - myths, philosophy, poetry, wars, politics, history, science... I have always enjoyed teaching, especially when I can respond to the interests of my students!
