Latin + Greek for Beginners - a great way to improve memory, understand ancient cultures, and assist modern language learning

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.

I am familiar with many examining boards, such as AQA, OCR and Pearson Edexcel. My goal is to: - Provide personalised support to help the student overcome their academic challenges, instilling confidence in the topic. - Strengthen the student's understanding of exam board 'Assessment Objectives', equipping them to approach exams strategically. (Exams are like a game - knowing the rules makes success easier). - Enhance writing skills by reinforcing PEA structure (Point, Evidence, Explain) for clear and effective responses. - Offer practical advice on revision techniques, study tips, and tools to boost the student's performance. I achieved A* in Latin at GCSE in 2017, without dropping a mark I scored 100% across all four papers (400/400 UMS). I earned an A in Latin at A-level in 2019. I was offered a place to read Classics with English Literature at Edinburgh University in 2020. I studied Latin for two years at Edinburgh, before dropping it to complete my undergrad in only English Literature. I graduated with First-Class MA Honours in English Literature in July 2024.

I use different methods in language teaching, choosing those that perfectly suit the goals and desires of the student. I work with a variety of textbooks. With me you will definitely learn a language or complete a task (test, final exam, university exam) :)

Applications for Classics at Oxford and Cambridge both involve a language assessment, for which I provide expert tutoring and guidance in as a first-class Classics and English graduate from Oxford. Classics at Oxford uses the Classics Admissions Test (CAT) for Course I (for students with Latin/Greek to A Level) or the Classical Language Aptitude Test (CLAT) for Course II (for students without Latin/Greek) to decide who will be invited for interview. At Cambridge only candidates shortlisted for interview will be required to take such assessment, which will be a translation exercise for the 3-year course, or a language aptitude interview for the 4-year. All assessments involve careful application of linguistic knowledge, whether of classical languages or English, which I will ensure you are extremely well-prepared to do. Applicants are also required to submit two pieces of written work prior to interview, which I am able to advise about if requested.

When learning a language, every person needs a different method. Some of us are better with grammar, others need a lot of listening or writing when learning. That's why my goal is to create a personalised class that suits the goals of each individual. Whether you are a beginner, an advanced learner, or a person with greek origins who needs to connect again with the language, I am here to help you enjoy the learning process. I have 3 years of experience both with children and adults. Let's start this journey together! Le cours peut être enseigné également en français. Chaque personne a sa propre façon d'apprendre une langue. Quelques'uns préfèrenent plus de grammaire et quelques autres ont besoin d'apprendre en parlant/ en écoutant. C'est pour ça que chaque cours est unique afin de correspondre aux besoins de chaque étudiant.e ou élève. Peu importe votre niveau (débutant, avancé ou même quelqu'un qui a des origines grecques) je suis ici pour vous aider à adorer la langue grecque. J'ai hâte de vous connaître tous et toutes!

This lesson is for children with dual nationality living overseas. The language taught in English schools is difficult for Japanese people. Your child speaks Japanese and English, but is struggling with other languages at school. Knowing Japanese will help you better explain how to study a language of Latin origin. Understanding, regaining confidence, learning, and succeeding are the stages of my guidance. Homework, explanations, test preparation throughout the year, and during school holidays The best time to start is before the year-end exams. You can consult for free online in English or Japanese. Just make a reservation. Let's work hard together !

My name is Jehona. Graduated in Italian Literature with a master in Science Linguistics, I give lessons in Italian, Latin , English and French for primary and secondary school, and to whoever is interested in these subjects. I only give lessons online via webcam, because I live in Italy. Thank you so much.

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).

I offer a range of tailored lessons to students of all ages wishing to improve their English language skills (reading, writing, speaking m, comprehension etc.). I am also able offer tuition in Latin, Ancient Greek & Ancient history. I am a native English speaker (born & raised in the UK) and have a Masters degree in Classics from Oxford University. I will soon also have a TEFL CELTA certificate.

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

This class is designed for students who want to learn Ancient or Modern Greek. Whether you're a beginner or have previous knowledge, you'll develop your reading, writing, and speaking skills. The lessons will include grammar, vocabulary, and practice exercises tailored to your needs. I provide a structured but flexible approach to learning, ensuring you feel confident in using Greek in academic or everyday situations. Lessons are available online or in person in Liverpool.

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.

I am a passionate philologist with a degree from the University of Ioannina, specializing in Modern Greek Literature and Poetry. With over six years of teaching experience in Ancient Greek, Modern Greek, Homeric Epics, and Greek Poetry, and three years of experience teaching Greek as a foreign language, I offer lessons that are both engaging and effective. In my classes, we combine structured learning with real-life conversations, cultural immersion, and creative activities. I believe that the best way to learn Greek is through interactive storytelling, exposure to Greek music, and discussions about Greek literature and poetry, including works by famous poets like C.P. Cavafy. My approach ensures that students not only acquire language skills but also develop a deeper connection to Greek culture and history. Whether you're looking to learn Greek for travel, work, or simply out of passion, I tailor each lesson to your personal goals and learning style. I’ve also had the privilege of teaching Greek to refugees and migrants, adapting my methods to ensure inclusivity and accessibility for all learners. Join me in an immersive, fun, and effective language journey where you will speak confidently and connect with the beauty of the Greek language.

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.

I am currently a Classics student at Durham University, and achieved A*'s in Latin at GCSE and A-Level. I am knowledgeable about the OCR exam board and what they require, so can provide exam focused teaching or a more relaxed learning pace for all ages and abilities.
