About Emma

I am currently a PhD student in Ancient Greek literature. Before starting my PhD, I completed an undergraduate degree in Classics, and a Master's in Ancient Greek Philosophy at Oxford, and spent a year as a visiting student in the Classics department in Heidelberg. I have wide interests in Ancient Greek literature - from epic to tragedy to historiography to philosophy - and so will happily tailor my lessons to what texts you would most like to focus on. I have primarily done research in the fields of Greek philosophy and historiography - on Heraclitus, Antiphon, Plato and Thucydides - but have experience with texts from many other genres and different time periods. I am very enthusiastic about and committed to the study of all things Greek-related, and am looking forward to working with you to improve your fluency in the language and to making it easier for you to experience the joy and wonder that comes with reading Ancient Greek texts in the original. From my own experience, I can honestly say that both of those feelings never go away, but instead actually get stronger the more one reads in the extremely varied corpus that is Ancient Greek literature! To say one last thing about me, I am very interested in languages in general - outside of English and French which are the two languages I am fluent in, I have studied a number of other modern languages: German, Spanish, Italian, Modern Greek and Dutch. Even though I take a lot of joy in studying modern languages and also a tremendous amount in reading and working with Latin texts, no other language has ever captivated me as much as Ancient Greek has. For this reason I wanted to offer tutoring in Greek, and help others not only have direct access to the beauty and incredible depth of the texts written in Greek, but also see just how fascinating the very structures of the language are.

I will tailor my lessons to what you feel like you need to work on and (just as importantly!) to what you are most interested in learning. Once I hear from you what you would most like to focus on, I will create a course outline which I will send to you for feedback.

Through living in different countries and being immersed in different academic environments - in Canada and France as a child and teenager, in England during my undergraduate and master's degrees, in Germany as a visiting student, and now in the US as a PhD student - I have become sensitive to a handful of different teaching methods and styles. I aim to provide you with the kind of support and guidance that you need, and so am looking forward to getting a very clear sense of that before we start approaching any material.

From my own experience as a Classics student, I have a clear sense of the resources that are most useful to students at different stages of the learning process (dictionaries, textbooks, commentaries, prose composition books etc.), and so would be able to give valuable advice on this topic. From studying Greek in different languages - in English, French and German - I can also recommend the best and most appropriate resources available in each of those languages. Having the knowledge of which resources are most suited to you will help you on your way to becoming a more independent reader of Greek texts. I would also be happy to work through a textbook or workbook of your choice, along with any other kind of text-based material you would also like to work on with me.
