There is no easy way around it- Latin and Ancient Greek are hard to master. After three years at Durham University grappling with Homer, Herodotus, Catullus and Cicero Sappho and Suetonius and Aristotle in between I will readily admit that without help, bellum bellum bellum has a habit of morphing into blah, blah, blah.

I graduated this summer from Durham University, consistently ranked as one of the UK`s top three institutions for higher education in Classics, with a High 2.1 BA. Previously a scholar at RGS Worcester, and a student who has spent summers enrolled at Bryanston Greek Summer School, I am enthusiastic and fully equipped with all the necessary teaching equipment to take on any pupils from common entrance level up to advanced university standard. I am in my element working through the technicalities of both ancient languages, and am comfortable teaching translation into Latin, Ancient Greek, and of course into English from either. I am also trained in translating from the cunieform scri pt Akkadian. I have won prizes on an international platform for Latin literature, and would be delighted to work on this side of the syllabus too.
