-Latin and Ancient Greek with a Cambridge Graduate-

From 36 £ /h

I offer tutoring up to university level (in Latin) and secondary-school level (in Greek), based around the John Taylor JACT courses, but with the freedom to go wherever the student wants. I favour the use of real ancient texts where possible, and at higher levels encourage genuine engagement with literature as something to be read and enjoyed, not just studied.

I hold a Masters in Classics from the University of Cambridge (Gonville and Caius College, 2018) and have worked with some of the most prominent classicists in the world, including Richard Hunter and Mary Beard. This is the experience I am able to give back, by offering a truly informed form of classical tuition.

Learn Academic English Writing With Native Speaker

30 £ /h

This class is for students of all ages. I teach students how to write assured and professional essays for their academic courses, up to PhD level. Students will learn not only the language itself, but also the conventions and styles particular to English-language writing, and how to properly introduce and structure their work. I also offer proofreading services.

I am a native English speaker from London, England, and an active researcher. I hold a PhD in Philosophy from the University of Kent, an MA in Philosophy from KU Leuven, an MPhil in Classics from Cambridge, and a BA in Classics from Exeter.

Master Latin — Speak, Read, and Understand the Language of the Classics

In my classes, you will gain a complete command of Latin grammar and develop the ability to speak, write, and read the language with confidence. Together, we will explore Latin as a living language — not only translating it, but also using it actively to understand the great authors in their original words, from Cicero to Erasmus.

The core of my course is Familia Romana, a renowned textbook that introduces the essential structures of Latin grammar and builds a strong foundation in vocabulary through engaging, context-based learning.

My teaching approach is flexible and student-centered, adapting to your pace, interests, and goals. Whether you wish to read classical literature, strengthen your linguistic understanding, or experience Latin as a spoken language, I will guide you step by step toward mastery.

By the end of the course, you will not only know Latin — you will think and express yourself in it.

Join me in rediscovering Latin as it was meant to be: alive, precise, and profoundly beautiful.

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.

I offer you a new learning experience.

To the uninitiated, a grammar book seems to be written in another language because the meaning of the words is incomprehensible. In a down-to-earth way, I'll translate the grammar into familiar words. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning while having a positive mindset.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both teenagers and adults who want to acquire a solid foundation of the Latin language without the time-consuming diversions of absurd school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for Latin. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

Hello! My name is Dimi and I am a native Greek speaker and certified teacher with an academic background in Greek language and literature.

I offer personalized Greek language lessons for students of all levels, from complete beginners to advanced learners. My goal is to help students understand and use the Greek language in a clear, structured, and engaging way.

Lessons can focus on different aspects of the language depending on your goals, including speaking, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and everyday communication. I also help students better understand Greek culture and expressions, which are an important part of learning the language.

The lessons are taught in English and are available online or in person. Each lesson is adapted to the student’s level, pace, and learning objectives.

Whether you want to learn Greek as a hobby, for travel, personal interest, or to develop a deeper understanding of the language, the lessons are designed to help you progress step by step and gain confidence in using Greek.

I am a qualified and experienced teacher of languages and I offer tuition in Italian and Latin
to adults and children. My tuition will be always tailored to your individual needs.

I have classroom teaching experience as well as private tutoring. In the last 14 years I have privately tutored adults and children at all levels. I hold a Honours Degree in Modern Foreign Languages and Literaure, I am very passionate about education, languages and foreign cultures.

I understand how many students think and why they get stuck, while teachers often struggle with this.
I can therefore convey complex material in a personal way, using examples, visualizations, comparisons, etc.

I often hear after an explanation:
- Oooooh, now I get it!
- Why doesn't the teacher just say this?
- That actually makes sense, yes...

My way of teaching is purely aimed at helping with things that are difficult or unclear.
We sit down and I ask, "What do you need to know for the test?" Then I'm assigned a few theory blocks, and we quickly figure out where things are going wrong, and I make sure it's clear.

A lesson usually lasts until all the material is understood. If that's too much, we usually stop after 1 or 1.5 hours, or when we run out of energy.

Making Latin fun is a herculean task, but if it becomes digestible, even the frustration that often accompanies it will be alleviated.

Let's review declensions together, learn how to easly recognize verb tenses, and learn how to use the dictionary effectively: it must be our best ally.

Perfect grammar and a good command of vocabulary will be our starting point for achieving sensible, error-free translations.
And if your weakness is literature, let's get down to business: get to know the authors, read the texts, take some quizzes.

Nothing is impossible.

Abitur in Latin and the large Latinum - I'll show you how to master grammar and Latin texts!

Latin doesn't have to be dry theory - mnemonic devices make learning much easier.
You will also learn what to pay attention to at the beginning of a translation and what Latin poetry has in common with modern languages.

Teaching experience as a tutor:
Latin (grades 5 to 12/13/Abitur)

Hello! My name is Rev. Dr. Eugene (Emmanouil), a native Greek speaker and professional tutor with a Ph.D. in Theology and many years of teaching experience.

I offer personalized Greek lessons for students of all levels, from complete beginners to advanced learners. My lessons focus on speaking, grammar, vocabulary, and real-life communication.

I can help you with:

• Modern Greek conversation
• Grammar and pronunciation
• Greek for travel and culture
• Academic Greek
• Ancient Greek for theology students
• Preparation for exams or university studies

Lessons are tailored to each student's goals and learning style. I create a friendly and structured environment where students gain confidence and progress quickly.

If you would like to learn Greek in an engaging and effective way, I would be happy to guide you.

I teach Latin and Ancient Greek through a reading-based approach that brings the languages to life. Rather than memorising rules in isolation, students build grammatical understanding and vocabulary by engaging with authentic texts — discovering how the language actually works in context. Along the way, we explore the rich cultural and historical worlds behind the words, connecting language learning with the ideas, stories, and societies that shaped the classical world.

For Italian, I focus on practical communication and real-world listening skills. Using podcasts and conversational practice alongside structured grammar resources, students gain confidence in speaking and understanding Italian as it is used in everyday life. My aim is to make language learning both effective and enjoyable, helping students progress steadily while developing a genuine connection with the language.

I have a degree in philosophy with a specialization in history and archaeology. I work in secondary education, teaching Greek, ancient Greek, literature, and history. I also tutor students privately. I am passionate about teaching, and if you require any educational services, please feel free to contact me.
