About Dr Freddie

I am an experienced teacher of Latin language and literature and have a PhD in Classics and Ancient History from the University of Exeter. For three years I taught first and second-year undergraduates across a broad range of academic subjects covering Classical literature, ancient history, and material culture and civilisation, resulting in almost 300 hours of teaching and marking experience. I have a deep passion for all the subjects that I am offering to teach. I am currently teaching some 20 students, either via one-to-one tuition or in small groups, in both Latin and Spanish language, from beginners’ to post-university level. I have particular experience in tutoring students for Iseb Common Entrance exams and GCSE (both OCR and Eduqas).

I can teach the following:
Latin language (all levels from beginners’ onwards)
Greco-Roman history (specialism Augustan principate)
Greek and Latin literature (poetry and prose, all genres, specialism poetry of the Augustan period, Homer)
Roman society and material culture

While at Exeter University, I taught a broad range of subjects covering literature, history and material culture to first and second-year undergraduates and am happy to cover these areas. Specific subjects include Latin language, ancient epic poetry, Greek and Roman drama, Roman laughter (covering a broad range of texts). I marked and graded essays for all of my literature modules, as well as for additional modules covering Women in Homer and the Age of Augustus. I normally worked with small groups of between 5-10 students which gave me the opportunity to understand each of my students’ learning strengths and challenges, tailoring my classes to their requirements. I also undertook extensive formal assessment of essays and commentaries for the department, offering students detailed feedback on the quality of their work. My experience as an editor and journalist has provided me with a unique insight into what makes a good piece of writing and so I have also tutored undergraduate students, both in small groups and on a one-on-one basis, in how to structure their academic essays and improve their writing skills.

I am above all a thoughtful teacher, emphasising kindness and respect above all other qualities, who will work hard to make sure I can help my students as much as possible. I also have undertaken extensive formal teacher training through a University of Exeter official programme and am now an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (please see below for more details). In a written assessment of my teaching at Exeter, my reviewer said, “There wasn’t a single moment in which [the students] weren’t completely focused on the task at hand… It’s a clear marker of how comfortable they felt that almost every student participated in the discussion. You took great care to give the students space, holding back at certain points to avoid disrupting their flow, which was really nice to see.”

Lessons will be an hour in length, with a strong focus on grammar and detailed language work. My aim is to provide the student with a secure foundational knowledge of the core grammatical concepts, vocabulary, and broader syntax that will enable them to reach (in time) an advanced level of Latin learning. I also look to demistify and clarify the complex grammatical language that is traditionally associated with Latin learning, while also providing the student with practical advice on how to translate Latin accurately. The first lesson will be used to learn more about the student, what they hope to gain from the lessons, how I can help them, as well as determining the type of material that I will then cover so that I can tailor subsequent lessons to the student’s needs and requirements. This could be centred on specific subject areas or topics required for the student to pass a formal exam, whether Common Entrance, GCSE, A-level or undergraduate, or it could be a comprehensive course of study designed to enable students to learn Latin with no previous knowledge of the language. Any students who are taught by me will automatically be given expert advice on how to structure and compose their written work in English, based on my many years of professional experience in this field as an editor and journalist.
