Philosophy, RS/ RE, Ethics, and English Literature for A-Level and GCSE
In this class we'll be studying philosophy, RE/RS, Ethics or English Literature. Together we'll work through some philosophy or literature texts, and develop skills for reading and writing intelligently about them. I have almost 4 years of experience tutoring A Level and GCSE students, helping them to approach exam questions by themselves and with confidence. For my English students, I try to make the study of literature more logical by giving you step-by-step guides for approaching texts. For my philosophy students, I try to make abstract problems more relevant to you by using up-to-date examples. My ultimate goal is to make studying these subjects interactive, and to help you to succeed in exams.
I'm a masters student in Philosophy at Oxford, specialising in ancient philosophy, but I'm confident that I can help you whatever your interests are, and whatever your exam is on.

Latin, Ancient Greek, Biblical Hebrew Lessons and TutoringAs 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.
Guillaume
Learn Latin and ancient Greek as living languages, with an agrégé in classical literature, graduated from the ENS de LyonA LIVING METHOD
Whether you are a beginner or more advanced, I will help you progress in Latin or ancient Greek, which you will learn as a living language: it will not be primarily a question of translating Latin or Greek, but above all of speaking it, reading it, writing it!
FORGET YOUR DICTIONARY
By doing so, you will memorize vocabulary and grammatical structures much more easily than with the classic method based essentially on translation. You will no longer spend your life in the dictionary, and eventually, you will read your favorite authors like an open book!
LATIN
I essentially offer a living Latin course based on the Orberg method, acclaimed by thousands of Latinists around the world. Whether you are a beginner or more advanced, I can accompany you on the chapters corresponding to your level of Familia Romana (first volume) or Roma Aeterna (second volume). It is therefore important that you get this book.
If you want to work on Familia Romana, I also highly recommend that you purchase the Vivarium Novum workbook to consolidate your learning: volume I for chapters I to XIX, volume II for chapters XX to XXXIV.
GREEK
For Greek, we will use the Logos method. It will be up to the student to obtain a copy of this manual.
A LA CARTE COURSES
However, I am attentive to pupils and students who are waiting for more conventional methods, particularly in the context of preparing for the baccalaureate, the competitive examinations for the grandes écoles, or even the agrégation. Version, theme, explanation of an old text: all these exercises are well known to me for having practiced them for many years.
It is also possible to build a course based on your desires (excluding erotic texts and magic manuals). Do you want to follow one method rather than another? Discover a particular author? Tell me! Be careful, however, to remain realistic! We do not tackle Xenophon or Titus Livius without a solid level.
Do not hesitate to contact me for any request.
NB: I do not offer translation services, and even less for tattoos. Thank you for your understanding.

Greek language or Ancient Greek/ history and mythologyGreek has significantly influenced many modern languages, particularly English. A vast number of English words have Greek roots, especially in fields such as medicine, science, philosophy, and the arts. Learning Greek can help you understand the etymology of many English words and terms, enhancing your vocabulary and comprehension. For example, words like "psychology," "democracy," and "philosophy" all have Greek origins.
By learning Greek, you gain the ability to read and understand both classical and modern Greek literature. Classical works by authors like Sophocles, Euripides, and Aristophanes are best appreciated in their original form, capturing nuances and meanings that translations might miss. Additionally, modern Greek literature offers rich storytelling and contemporary insights into Greek culture and society.

Lessons in Latin / Ancient Greek - Unterricht in Latin / AltgriechischLatein wird leicht, wenn du weißt, wie du es entschlüsselst. Ich biete dir einen Schlüsselbund. In unserem Unterricht gehe ich individuell auf deine Bedürfnisse ein und gebe dir Tipps, wie du dich schrittweise verbessern kannst. 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.

My teaching method is based on examples so that you can quickly apply what you have learned. Write to me briefly about where you are in your language learning and what you want to achieve.
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!

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.

Learn (modern) Greek for everyday use, university, tourism with FUN and passion / (ancient) Greek for school and universityI am a native speaker of Greek. I graduated from a Greek high school and, later, the University of Athens where I attended courses in pedagogics, psychology, and linguistics.
During our lessons, I'll help you develop your skills (oral/written, and not only). I'll also try to help you improve your pronunciation and spelling. I assign homework and after I receive it, correct it thoroughly additionally providing a lot of remarks/examples if they are necessary.
I worked at a language center between 2009-2016 where I was a director of studies and taught mainly English as a foreign/second language. Since 2005, when I first started teaching Greek, I have taught children and adults on a variety of language proficiency levels, mainly individually.
I constantly seek progress, meaning that I study further through reading books/articles concerning didactics/methodology and learning difficulties (chiefly dyslexia), observing other teachers as well as attending seminars (online or face-to-face).
During my lessons I use :
- Skype/Whatsapp/Messenger to connect with you,
- Google Docs to keep notes, which you can check at any time and they are yours to keep,
- sketch board me to make mind maps to show connections between ideas, etc.
- books, PPP, word docs, diagrams, pics, etc.
- pronunciation/spelling/grammar games,
- authentic materials were taken from websites.
I adore my profession and desire each and every one of my students be satisfied with the lesson. That's why I make sure the atmosphere is stress-free and nice. I also want my lessons to be as effective and close to real-life needs as possible. Therefore, I make sure they are well-prepared, although they can be altered at any point, should such an opportunity arise. I like explaining things in a variety of ways as well as make use of dictionaries, diagrams, etc. When it comes to students who want to obtain certificates, I am very demanding.
What can I teach?
- I would love to help you improve/develop all language skills (speaking/writing-listening/reading + grammar/vocabulary/pronunciation),
- I would love to help you prepare for state certificates such as A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2.
- I would love to help you with homework and assignments (literature, history) from school and university (but please contact me about that IN ADVANCE).
Regarding Ancient Greek, I can help you with commentaries/translations/grammar/syntax:
- Socrates, Plato, Aristotle,
- Homer, Aeschylus, Euripides, Sophocles, Sappho,
- Herodotus, Thucydides, Xenophon.

A Student’s Guide to History (GCSE, A LEVEL, HAT).History is a challenging subject at both GCSE and A Level, both in terms of understanding and remembering the copious amounts of content as well as learning how to jump through the hoops of exam technique. This class is designed, by a former student who is now studying history at university, to assist in both obtaining the highest possible grade in history, but also to spread my passion for history and hopefully create a long lasting interest in my pupils.
I am also able to help with other items which I studied at A Level, namely Religious Studies and Economics. In addition to this, I can provide assistance with the Oxford HAT test as I scored highly in it despite not being accepted.
