Information about Giacomo
I am Associate Lecturer of Latin at the Courtauld Institute of Art. At the same time, I teach some literature modules at King`s College London, where I have recently completed my PhD on the Greeks` and Romans` perception of their literary past and how this affected Horace`s poetics. I have been teaching Classics and Classics-related subjects for many years, as a private tutor, in schools, and at University. The confidence and experience I gained allowed me to become Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. My passion for and expertise in ancient literature and culture have made me a doctoral member of the International Réseau for the Study of Augustan Poetry. Besides pursuing my Classics-related research, I am translating a 1671 book from Latin to English within a project led by two Irish scholars.
Willing to travel: 4 miles
Experience: I have ten years of experience in teaching people of different ages in a variety of contexts (private tutoring, university seminars and lectures, summer schools...). This has led me to be able to tailor my teaching method to the individual needs of my students. I am looking forward to providing my tuition experience to you, which the Higher Education Academy has officially acknowledged by giving me a HEA Fellowship.

I did not meet the tutor myself as my child lived with my brother-in-law while he was in London for a weekend. I guess Mr Giacomo normally can do even better. But his close friend just had a car accident while he gave my child 2 classes during a weekend in London.
