About Simon

salve! I am a Latin and Classical Civilisation Teacher with a First Class BA (Hons) degree from the University of Bristol. After tutoring for many years, my passion for Latin and Greek literature has led me to leave a career in the City to become a full-time teacher at a highly-academic secondary school. It has proved to be the most enjoyable decision of my life. I have 5 years of experience tutoring pupils from Common Entrance to A-level. As well as focusing on essential exam technique, I aim to bring the works of Classical authors to life. These texts are still worth studying today because of how much we can still relate to and learn from them. I specialise in the study of Epic poetry, especially Homer, Virgil and Ovid. However, I am also an enormous fan of Greek Tragedy, and a lover of Cicero's genius oratory and compassionate philosophy. My own education took place at King's College School, Wimbledon, followed by a First Class BA (Hons) degree in Classics from the University of Bristol, and an MA in War Studies from King's College London. I am currently studying a part-time MA in Classics at Birkbeck College. As a teacher, I have a full DBS check, and I am available to travel at weekends and during school holidays.

I am Head of Dept at a leading academic private school and I have mentored Simon for the past 18 months as he embarks on a career in education. He is a natural teacher who is able to build an impressive rapport with his students thanks to his expert subject knowledge and sense of empathy. He is ruthlessly professional in his preparation and puts his pupils’ needs first. He has engaged with the latest disciplinary and pedagogical research to ensure his knowledge and methods are consistently reflected upon. I recommend him to you unconditionally.
