Latin Grammar, Syntax, and Literature: Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced

From 57.65 C$ /h

My Latin class is fitting for learners at any level. Having studied Latin now for eleven years, not only in school but also at the Universities of Glasgow and Cambridge, I am extremely familiar with the language and its challenges. Using the Wheelock Latin textbook, adapted texts, and even "real" Latin literature where appropriate, I envisage Latin teaching and tutoring that focusses on the necessary aspects of grammar and rote language learning but supplements them with knowledge of Ancient Roman culture, history, and literature to make the language more alive and relevant. I am well-acquainted not only with the requirements of Latin learning at school, particularly for GCSEs, but also with the expectations of university Latin courses. A beginner will come to understand the fundamentals of the language, common vocabulary, and the "philosophy" that underlies grammatical forms and syntactical structures, an intermediate learner will come to grasp the more nuanced and trickier aspects of Latin grammar and reading, and an advanced learner will find confidence in reading Latin texts "in the wild" and the fluidity of translation and interpretation. Classes can be catered easily to the specific learning needs of any individual.

Extra information

A laptop, access to Google Docs, and a copy of the Wheelock's Latin textbook will suffice for beginners and intermediate learners. For advanced learners, arrangements can be made for the reading of particular texts, many of which are helpfully available online.

Ancient Greek Grammar, Syntax, and Literature: Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced

57.65 C$ /h

My Ancient Greek class is fitting for learners at any level. Having studied Ancient Greek now for six years, not only in school but also at the Universities of Glasgow and Cambridge, I am extremely familiar with the language and its challenges. Using the Cambridge Reading Greek and Greek GCSE textbooks, adapted texts, and even "real" Greek literature where appropriate, I envisage Greek teaching and tutoring that focusses on the necessary aspects of grammar and rote language learning but supplements them with knowledge of Ancient Greek culture, history, and literature to make the language more alive and relevant. I am well-acquainted not only with the requirements of Greek learning at school, particularly for GCSEs, but also with the expectations of university Greek courses. A beginner will come to understand the fundamentals of the language, common vocabulary, and the "philosophy" that underlies grammatical forms and syntactical structures, an intermediate learner will come to grasp the more nuanced and trickier aspects of Greek grammar and reading, and an advanced learner will find confidence in reading Greek texts "in the wild" and the fluidity of translation and interpretation.
