Information about Mia
Hi! My name is Mia and I study Classics at UCL. I have just finished my second year of studying and achieved a 1st in the first and second year of my degree. I went to City of London School for Girls and then Brighton College for sixth form where I studied both Latin and Spanish for many years achieving high A*s in both IGCSEs and high As at A level. Although I did not study Ancient Greek at school, I have averaged around 90% in all of the modules that I have completed in it. I have completed the intermediate course and will move on to advanced next year so, despite having not done the GCSE myself, I am well equipped to tutor it. When I have tutored students in the past I have used many different methods depending on the student`s skill set and ability level. I will often take them through a subject and then show them example sentences which we will go through slowly together. Then, depending on the type of subject we are going through I will often do a small verbal or written test to make sure they completely understand the subject. I understand what it`s like to have struggled with things so I take quite a gentle and understanding approach. For Latin and Ancient Greek, I have had to do many set texts and so can help with the learning of that as well as giving tips for revision. I know that it can sometimes be more effective to do many of these things face to face but I believe I can help just as much over online tutoring.
Willing to travel: 3 miles
Experience: I have tutored many people within school in both Latin and Spanish. I have tutored both subjects in one on one sessions, which gives the ability to go into great details about the problems people are having in specific subjects. I have also taught a class of year 5s Latin as part of a volunteering program at Brighton College. This allowed me to practice how to actually teach topics that students may be coming into with little to no knowledge rather than to just go through what they may already know. I have also led study groups, particularly for Ancient Greek, at university. Through these, I have been able to see the other way people revise and take on many different methods, such as writing down lists repeatedly or recitation.
