Information about Antonio

I am a dedicated and hard-working teacher/tutor of Classics, English, History, Philosophy, Religious Studies & Ethics and Italian. I have also been an examiner/assessor for both GCSE and A-Levels in English and all areas of Classics (Greek, Latin, Classical Civilisation and Ancient History). This means that I have gained valuable knowledge on how public exams are marked, which feeds back into my teaching and tuition. I have taught for over 20 years at all levels, from primary to secondary as well as university and adult learners. My knowledge of Classical Greek & Latin as well as of ancient Philosophy & Classical Literature enhances and enriches my teaching of English and Philosophy. My approach towards teaching and tuition is personable and professional. I enjoy helping my students work through difficult passages and grammatical concepts and seeing them improve gradually. I adopt an interdisciplinary approach to learning, which involves archaeology, art, philosophy, ancient history, science and much more.
I am meticulous and organised in preparation for my lessons, using feedback from tests and marked work to tailor the next lesson. I am a good listener and enjoy setting my students activities and problems to work through after brief lessons and introductions to new topics and concepts. I believe learning should be fun so I try to include as much variety and creativity in all activities during lessons and tutoring sessions. I utilise technology in my lessons, incorporating multimedia elements using a broad range of platforms to enhance learning, including YouTube, Google Classroom, Kahoot, Quizlet and Memrise, to name a few. I also believe that travel and field trips immensely enrich learning, and have run successful educational trips, programmes and exchanges for the past 20 years.

Availability: Full-time.

If you require multiple sessions per week or tuition over a long period of time, I usually offer discounted rates. Please get in touch to discuss.

Experience: I have taught in the UK since 2011, previously in the US for 11 years after completing degrees in Philosophy, Classics and Literature (Comparative Literature/ English), Ancient Greek and Latin. I have taught most recently at Bristol Grammar and Cheltenham College, including Ancient Greek and Latin at GCSE and A-levels, as well as Classical Civilisation. I previously taught at Latymer Upper School in London and academies and state schools in southeast London and Leicester. I have taught English, Reading and Languages to students of all ages, primary, secondary and university students and adult learners whilst living in the US. I have also been tutoring privately in London and now in Gloucestershire since 2014. My students and tutees have ranged from the primary level to 11 and 13+ entry, home-schooling at all levels, GCSE preparation and re-sits (English, Philosophy, Classics), A-Levels and University (exam and essay preparation and support). I have also taught Classics at university level, whilst working on my PhD studies at Indiana University and the University of Leicester and Exeter.

Antonio is an excellent tutor, he has taken time to asses my sons strengths and weaknesses before starting teaching and is teaching him appropriately. Antonio is generous in his manner, efficient and clear in instruction - I would highly recommend him - we are delighted and hope that his tuition will make the difference in the grade required!
