Classical Civilisation Tutors : 1-1 Classical Civilisation Preparation

I am a graduate in History 2.2 Bachelors Degree, and a pass in master’s degree which was Multimedia Journalism. Since graduating I have been working in high schools for almost three years and I am very knowledgeable in a wide range of subjects across the UK curriculum. I have observed, worked alongside with many different teachers across both primary school and high school across Greater Manchester which means I have taken a lot of knowledge in how to teach, how students learn best in different subjects, why students may excel in some subjects and struggle in others. I have a good understanding as I have mentioned in History, and in the humanities as a whole, the types of topics that come up during the course of the year, and the types of “tests” teachers use to see how well students are progressing.

Hi!
I’m currently an Undergraduate Geography and Classical Studies (with Sustainable Development) student at the University of St. Andrews (though I’m originally from London – I went all the way to Scotland because I couldn’t decide which subject to pick!)

Within my subjects, I’m really interested in Roman literature and rhetoric, Greek drama, urbanism, and socialist thought. (Though, of course, I enjoy all aspects of my degree. Most of the time.)

Geography to me is the most holistic of all subjects – I’m completely fascinated by its range and applicability in all areas. I find Geography in English, in Classics, in Statistics, in Business. It’s *not* just volcanoes and favelas, as much as anyone would like it to be, and this is a belief I incorporate into my teaching style.

Outside of school, I’m still deeply absorbed in English Literature, especially absurdist literature and philosophy (scratch that, all literature and philosophy).

I also enjoy environmental work, not making decisions, woodcarving, and cool hats.

I am an enthusiastic, engaging and passionate teacher who loves to support young people make progress. I began my career as a teaching assistant in Manchester before training to teach. Since then, I have worked in Manchester and West Norfolk, progressing to Head of Department and Assistant Headteacher. I have taught a broad range of History and Ancient History at KS3, GCSE and A Level, and also have experience teaching KS3 Geography, GCSE Religious Studies and A Level Politics. I am well-placed to support you in terms of source analysis, writing short-answers and extended writing, your understanding of topics and knowledge recall.

I am taking a break from the classroom to fulfil my personal ambition of learning French, and it’s important to me that I continue my passion of working with young people while I am studying. In addition to my years of experience in the classroom, I have current experience of what it’s like to learn and find concepts challenging!

My A Levels were in History, English Literature and English Language, and I have an AS in Government and Politics. My undergraduate degree was in History and Classical Civilisation, and I have a Master’s degree in Medieval Studies (History).
