I am a fourth-year Classics student at St Anne's College Oxford. I am passionate about my degree and have worked extremely hard to achieve the strong academic record I have.
The ultimate aim is to make other students as passionate about Classics as possible. I am not here to spoon-feed answers; my job would be to help students with the way they think about translating or critical analysis of text. Putting focus in the right area and being able to take a step back and look at the bigger picture is crucial to being a good classicist and I have gained a lot of experience in these areas in my 4 years at Oxford. I am more than happy to tutor via Skype.
I have tutored one student from my previous school for the Oxford Admissions Test. Fortunately, he was admitted to St Anne's College, Oxford. I also worked at the JACT Greek Summer School at Bryanston as a Director's Assistant, working alongside tutors and students alike.
I am a very keen sportsman, particularly tennis and football. I have played tennis for Oxford University since my first year.
