Greek, ancient Greek, Latin, exam preparation

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.

Want to learn Greek but feel intimidated by the complexity of the language? With me, learning Greek will be fun, productive and easy to understand. As a native Greek speaker, who is bilingual with English, I can bridge the gap between the two languages, offering direct translations and guiding you throughout this process so you can learn as quickly and as easily as possible! Before you know it, you will realise that learning the basics of Greek is actually not as difficult as it may seem. Why learn Greek? Greek has influenced many modern languages, making it a useful tool for understanding the origins of numerous words in fields like science and philosophy. Whether you are going for a memorable holiday or simply curious about language, learning Greek enriches your journey and broadens your perspective. Understanding the language allows you to connect more deeply with the rich culture, history, and hospitality of the Greek people. It opens doors to authentic interactions, from ordering local delicacies to engaging in meaningful conversations with locals. Moreover, knowing Greek can help you navigate the stunning landscapes and historical sites with greater appreciation and insight.

If you want to learn one of the first languages ever developed, this is your class! Here, we will cover the basics of Greek grammar, vocabulary, and sentence structure, starting with the alphabet and progressing through key linguistic concepts. You’ll also gain insight into the rich cultural and intellectual heritage of Ancient Greece, with readings drawn from famous texts like the Iliad, Odyssey, and New Testament, depending on the level and interest of the class. By the end of the course, you’ll be able to recognize and read simple Greek texts, laying the groundwork for more advanced study in both language and culture. Whether you're a beginner or have some background in Greek, this class will offer a supportive and interactive environment to help you develop confidence in using the language.

You will be prepared for public exams (A levels, GCSE, American SATS, Common Entrance) in French, Spanish, Linguistics (English) and Latin (up to Common Entrance) to a high standard. For those not taking exams, you will be taught via grammar and reading, which assures quick progression. You are welcome to bring your own material to explore with the tutor or your school prep. I do not write essays for students but provide a high degree of research to allow you to shine in your project or chosen module.

Modern Greek lessons cover levels A1 through B2 and are tailored to meet the specific needs of each student. Specialized vocabulary for students with an interest in architectural terminology, making these lessons ideal for Erasmus students preparing for short- or long-term study in Greece.

I am a 24 years old female Greek and Vocal Teacher. I have experiences with other students from many countries and our basic language is English. I love teaching and learning with my students new things about greek language or vocal lessons. I can work with all the ages and i love working with all of them. My positive energy and kidness are the most important for our lesson. I have my place, so our lesson can be comfortable and nice.

As a recent Oxford Classics graduate, I am keen to share my love of Latin and the Latin language with any would-be enthusiasts. I have experience in tutoring Latin from scratch to A-Level equivalent standard. In these classes, I'll focus on equipping my students with the necessary tools to master grammar and build up their vocabulary repertoire. We'll focus on strengthening our understanding of the building blocks of the language - noun declensions, verb conjugations, participles and the like - before moving onto more complex syntax such as subjunctive clauses. My lessons take an active approach so alongside the grammar tables we'll also translate passages of Latin, and I might throw in a fun fact or two!

I am of Czech origin but I have been living in Strasbourg for 4 years! I can offer you English lessons (grammar or just to speak :), Czech (if there are any French people who want to learn! :) or Latin (I did 5 years in the Czech Republic and 3 in France at university :)

Flexibility is central to my approach, and I will adapt our lesson plans to your specific needs and objectives. I have a deep knowledge of Latin and Greek linguistics, and offer tuition to all levels from Beginner, through GCSE and A-Level, up to those studying Classics at university. In our first lesson, we'll get to know each other and discuss your objectives and style of learning - I want to understand how you like to learn, what you find easy, and what you find difficult. And from there, we'll develop a well-prepared, interesting and valuable lesson plan. If learning a language is the scariest thing in the world to you, don't worry! I will always be a friendly, patient and devoted tutor. I have experience tutoring students in 4 different languages over the past 5 years. I understand the importance of sympathy and patience in teaching, and will always be able to slow down or speed up the course of learning as required. Latin and Greek are not easy, but with an experienced and friendly teacher, it can be a brilliant experience! I'm happy to run lessons of any length, and at any frequency. At various times in my life I've personally tried to learn almost 20 different languages (though Latin and Greek remain my favourites!), so I know very well how it feels to be staring at a page full of weird-looking words, and not have a clue where to start. Helping people to cut through the chaos, and see the wild beauty of complex languages like Latin and Greek, is one of the most satisfying feelings I've had through my years of tutoring both children and adults. My mission as a tutor will always be more than just to build your ability in these languages, it will be to build your love of them as well.

Hello, My name is Michael (Mike). Great enthusiast of Greece and the discovery of the Greek islands and magnificent places in Greece off the beaten track. I grew up and studied in Belgium, then lived and worked in Greece in multiple roles requiring a perfect command of the language, which allowed me to develop a detailed knowledge of modern Greek, which I am happy to pass on through private lessons. I can adjust the learning according to your wishes, specific interests and personal goals. See you soon, Mike

This class is designed for people to work through translation with a variety of Latin passages of all difficulties. I will provide and prepare the texts, and we will work through them together in order to ensure maximum understanding. Authors include Virgil, Ovid, Catullus, Cicero, Nepos, and others.

Private Latin classes for high school students, both for those who have just started learning the subject and for those who are in their second year and are going to take the university entrance exams. We will review the content corresponding to each level and will emphasize those in which the student has the greatest difficulty.
