Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Certified teacher of Classics, with eight years of teaching experience in college, I am passionate about ancient cultures. I spent my childhood reading books on mythology and watching documentaries on Rome or Ancient Greece, Egypt, the Vikings, the Mayas, the Incas or the Aztecs.I taught five years in rural college in Brittany then in the Hauts de France then three years in REP+ in Saint-Denis de La Réunion.
I also gave private lessons in French literature to students wishing to refresh their skills or prepare for exams.
Every year, I took on the same challenge: Introduce a new cohort of students to Latin, motivate and inspire them with a new approach to Latin based on the observation of their environment where Latin is present everywhere, the pedagogy of project, the teaching of Latin as a living language, games, theater and the creation of plastic works.
Passion but also rigor, kindness, adaptability and creativity are the main qualities that appeal to my teaching and which have meant that so many students have taken my Latin courses and never with regret!
I offer beginner to intermediate level Latin lessons. These courses are ideal for children but will also delight the big children that we still are sometimes.
Here are some examples of activities practiced in innovative teaching:
Creation of games on the origin of Latin languages, decoding of films or books based on mythology, introduction to Latin thanks to the spells of Harry Potter, workshops for the translation of Latin proverbs or quotations, creation of sketches in Latin.
In general, I offer an à la carte course, according to your tastes and your expectations. Teaching is done online using Zoom. We get to know each other during a first lesson so that I can understand your needs and desires but also your personality, then I offer you a structured, progressive and personalized program that is both rigorous and attractive in order to help you discover or progress in Latin.
Don't hesitate, get started!
Vale!

Learning English and Spanish, writing two books not yet published, volunteering in various sectors: Education, humanitarian, environment and agriculture.
Are you passionate about ancient history, mythology or forgotten languages? Me too ! Certified Classics teacher, I taught middle school for eight years. I led a Latin-Heritage option and introductions to Latin and Ancient Greek using innovative methods, in addition to daily Latin teaching based on project teaching. I had the chance to organize trips with the students to Provence and Rome, to create educational booklets and treasure hunts with them and to have them participate in all kinds of workshops linked to ancient cultures, in particularly experimental archeology workshops.
Then I set out to explore the world.
From the Roman and Greek ruins of Europe to the pyramids and temples of Egypt, including the Mayan and Aztec cities of Mexico and Guatemala, Machu Picchu and the forgotten cities of Sri Lanka, I have visited all the archaeological sites that I have been able to in three years of traveling and continue to do so. At each stage, I delve into the ancient culture of the site in question and am inevitably fascinated! So much so that I would now like to share this knowledge!
I master Roman and Greek civilizations at a professional level and also have a solid knowledge of Egyptian, Scandinavian, Celtic, Mayan, Aztec and Inca civilizations.
Do you want to know more about these civilizations? Do you already have some knowledge and want to deepen it? You are in the right place !
My courses are built around the analysis of archaeological remains which, put into context, give a concrete and immediately meaningful overview of the social, religious, economic, political, artistic and linguistic aspects of a civilisation.
I am passionate, committed to everything I do, creative, rigorous and both caring and demanding!

I can help you !
Certified Classics teacher, I taught French and Latin in middle school for eight years at all levels, namely high-potential, dyslexic or struggling children or non-French-speaking children from various cultures. Before and during my teaching years, I gave private lessons and tutored children who wanted to prepare for French exams, who could not read, or who wanted to learn ancient Greek.
Then I went on a world tour.
Traveling for three years, I met on my way families who traveled around the world, others who had settled abroad and were schooling at home and I also approached other teaching methods such as the Waldorf method (Steiner).
I offer tutoring for your child in French, history-geography, English and/or Spanish. I am also able to offer an opening to science and art.
I am aware of the difficulties presented by schooling at home and while traveling and myself introduced to various innovative educational practices and open to the world, I am an exciting resource for your child. I particularly like project-based teaching, so why not build learning with your child based on carrying out projects based on what they experience at home or while traveling?
Teaching is done online using Zoom. During the first lesson, we get to know each other and I take note of your expectations and needs as well as your child's personality, his tastes and desires and the framework in which you want this teaching to take place.

I have also been a tutor for children with poor command of French and have given private lessons in French literature to children wishing to refresh their skills or prepare for exams.
I offer personalized French conversation lessons based on the initial project that motivates you to learn a foreign language. My courses alternate between pure learning of the language (namely grammar), vocabulary and French culture through themes that interest you, the study of films or songs, concrete situations and the realization of projects artistic. We can also just chat!

Myself I learned English and Spanish while I was traveling using face to face or online tutors and different websites or applications. The same way I got an insight on different languages I met during my travels like Swahili, Arabic and Malay languages. I master Latin and Ancient Greek and experienced different ways of teaching Latin as a spoken language. I also did some tutoring for kids who had difficulties in mastering French language and gave private lessons to kids wishing to improve their level in French Litterature, grammar or spelling or willing to prepare exams.
My lessons are done online using Zoom and are a mix of conversation, vocabulary, grammar and culture. I usually use movies, songs or cultural events to start with but we could be speaking about anything. The most important thing is that you and I are at ease with each other and talking about a topic that we both love so we both enjoy the class!

A certified Classics teacher, I taught in college for eight years, including three years in REP+ in Saint-Denis de La Réunion. I found the challenges of REP+ exciting to take on and very enriching: Thanks to this experience, I implemented very progressive teaching methods in French and Latin in order to best support the most fragile students, whether They have difficulty learning to read, mastering French, analyzing texts, writing an essay, mastering spelling or grammar, or who simply wonder what French is for.
I explored various teaching methods, developed an innovative approach to Latin based on the Orberg or Cambridge Latin Course methods, became interested in different ways of homeschooling and innovative pedagogies such as the Waldorf method and greatly appreciates the project pedagogy.
My goal is to make learning clear, lively and full of meaning, anchoring it in a practical context and always valuing the student.
Myself a former dyslexic, I was very interested in the various ways of supporting dyslexic children and children with special needs.
Rich in this experience, I offer personalized support lessons for your child. My area of expertise is French and Latin but having traveled for more than three years around the world, I am also able to accompany your child in English which I speak fluently, in Spanish which I master at college level. , and in history and geography.
My qualities are commitment and seriousness, rigor and benevolence, open-mindedness, adaptability and creativity.
During the first lesson, I get to know your child and take note of their needs and desires as well as their personality. I then offer you a structured, progressive and personalized program, as rigorous as it is attractive, which will allow your child to no longer feel so fragile and isolated in class!
Get started, you will be doing your child a favor!

Non-academic Latin lessons. Multilingual teacher with 9 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, conceptual semantics.Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart.
I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches:
If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options:
1) Learn the schedules by heart.
2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m.
In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster.
My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results.
Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind.
I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics.
What will not be the subject of the course:
learn lists of verbs;
learn lists of nouns with their gender;
learn words with their translations;
memory card game;
doing school exercises;
follow the program in a notebook;
impose French grammar on the Latin language.
What matters to me in particular:
motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm;
encourage creativity;
make friends with language;
letters and their sounds
strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop;
teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart;
explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible;
breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ;
place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice.
In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy.
I look forward to meeting you.
Ian
Living Latin through Comprehensible Input (Contemporary and Medieval Latin)You will learn Latin the way it was meant to be learned - through conversation! Medieval scholars and contemporary language researchers alike advocate the use of dialogues and comprehensible input for language acquisition, and it most certainly works! As opposed to the "memorise grammar rules and then babble them in front of the class" approach that was demonstrated by the infamous "Romanēs eunt domus" scene from Monty Python's "The Life of Brian", you will learn to feel the grammar, so that you will be able to use the different cases of Latin without even thinking about it, just like a native speaker!
For this class we will be using the following books, depending on the learner's level:
Hans Øreberg's "Lingua Latīna per sē Illustrāta"
"Corderiī Colloquia"
Erasmus Rask's "Colloquia Familiaria"
John C. Traupman Conversational Latin for Oral Proficiency
I will be the collocutor and I will answer the learner's questions and explain certain oddities solely in Latin (I will use a second language only when the situation calls for it)
We will also engage in free-form conversations, discussions of the dialogues, of our life experiences etc so that the learner can apply what they learn to real-life situations and expand their vocabulary
Reuben
Oxford Classics Graduate offering Latin Language tuition from scratch up to A-Level standardAs a recent Oxford Classics graduate, I am keen to share my love of Latin and the Latin language with any would-be enthusiasts.
I have experience in tutoring Latin from scratch to A-Level equivalent standard.
In these classes, I'll focus on equipping my students with the necessary tools to master grammar and build up their vocabulary repertoire.
We'll focus on strengthening our understanding of the building blocks of the language - noun declensions, verb conjugations, participles and the like - before moving onto more complex syntax such as subjunctive clauses.
My lessons take an active approach so alongside the grammar tables we'll also translate passages of Latin, and I might throw in a fun fact or two!

I also want my lessons to be as effective as possible. Therefore, I make sure they are well-prepared, although they can be altered at any point, should such an opportunity arise. I like explaining things in a variety of ways as well as make use of dictionaries, diagrams, etc. When it comes to students who want to sit an exam, I am very demanding.

Carlotta
Latin tutoring for secondary students (Dutch / Latin / English)Salvē, my name is Carlotta and I have 7 years of experience in tutoring. These lessons are now online, which in my experience does not lower the quality or results at all. I followed courses at Schola Latīna, an Italian private school that uses the comprehensible input (CI) method. This means that all lessons are taught exclusively in the target language, which allows me to not only translate Latin, but also speak and write it. Since no Flemish school expects active language proficiency, I will of course not do this unasked during lessons ;)
In practice the same problems always return: difficulties with translation, difficulties with memorization of sequences and vocabulary, lack of motivation or fun.
When such a fantastic profession is experienced as difficult, it is only logical that motivation also drops. Whatever the problem, Latin itself is a perfectly feasible subject. I also tutored mathematics and noticed that students only have fun when they are no longer struggling, which is what we are working towards :)
My goal is to be less needed as quickly as possible by learning and practicing strategies. When you contact us, please state the year the student is in. I provide extra customized material!
Cūrā ut valeās,

Latin lessons for all levels (beginners, intermediates, advanced, higher education students)-ADULTSAssociate professor, Doctor of Letters (Paris IV Sorbonne), teaches Latin at all levels.
This course is aimed at anyone wishing to learn or relearn the Latin language, progressively access literature, history, philosophy, ancient sciences, and approach Latin culture. It is also intended for any pupil or student wishing for support in this subject.
Learning the Latin language presupposes a few solid bases of French grammar that we review of course if necessary, before installing Latin grammatical knowledge.
Learning Latin develops the rigor and sense of translation.
Will
1st Class Cambridge Graduate – Latin & Ancient Greek ClassesFlexibility is central to my approach, and I will adapt our lesson plans to your specific needs and objectives. I have a deep knowledge of Latin and Greek linguistics, and offer tuition to all levels from Beginner, through GCSE and A-Level, up to those studying Classics at university.
In our first lesson, we'll get to know each other and discuss your objectives and style of learning - I want to understand how you like to learn, what you find easy, and what you find difficult. And from there, we'll develop a well-prepared, interesting and valuable lesson plan.
If learning a language is the scariest thing in the world to you, don't worry! I will always be a friendly, patient and devoted tutor. I have experience tutoring students in 4 different languages over the past 5 years. I understand the importance of sympathy and patience in teaching, and will always be able to slow down or speed up the course of learning as required. Latin and Greek are not easy, but with an experienced and friendly teacher, it can be a brilliant experience!
I'm happy to run lessons of any length, and at any frequency.
At various times in my life I've personally tried to learn almost 20 different languages (though Latin and Greek remain my favourites!), so I know very well how it feels to be staring at a page full of weird-looking words, and not have a clue where to start. Helping people to cut through the chaos, and see the wild beauty of complex languages like Latin and Greek, is one of the most satisfying feelings I've had through my years of tutoring both children and adults. My mission as a tutor will always be more than just to build your ability in these languages, it will be to build your love of them as well.
Andrés
Ancient Greek, Latin and Spanish Language (online and face-to-face)Hello! I am Andrés and I have a degree in Classical Philology. I teach Latin and ancient Greek classes, at all levels, both for school reinforcement and if you want to learn these two languages for pleasure. I like to teach these subjects based on new methodologies that make learning them more enjoyable and pleasant for the student. In addition, I like to complement the teaching of these languages with culture and history classes, since it is very important to know the context in which we move in each class. Anyway, I adapt to the needs of each student. I also teach Spanish Language and Literature reinforcement classes, both for Primary, ESO, Baccalaureate students, and those who take the University entrance exams. Flexible schedule.

Latin for Beginners', Using Wheelock's Latin Textbook***THE TEXTBOOK IS NOT NECESSARY FOR THE CLASS***
Learning Latin is the gateway to an entire civilisation - the Romans. In this class, we will cover the contents of the textbook called Wheelock's Latin, starting with the basics of noun and verb formations and ending with various kinds of subjunctive clauses, and how to interpret them.
Alessia
Latin, Ancient Greek, and Biology tutoring classesI have several years of experience tutoring students of different age groups in Latin and Ancient Greek. I am deeply passionate about these languages and I enjoy helping students improving at them.
I believe that understanding the structure of a sentence is fundamental when approaching these languages, therefore this is an important focus for me. During the class I always dedicate some time to reasoning and translating sentences together with the student.
I have a BS in pharmaceutical biotechnology and I am currently a master student in Medicine. I find biology very fascinating and I have been tutoring it for years now. Depending on the topic and the student's needs, I structure the lessons differently. I usually explain the topic and use tools such as spaced repetition, notes, conceptual maps to make sure that the student has understood.
