LATIN AND ANCIENT GREEK ARE FABULOUS SUBJECTS
They are stimulating and wonderfully beneficial whether you are young, ancient, or somewhere in between, and whatever your capability.
We teach in the time-honoured, traditional way (although using Skype or Zoom) which not only works best by far but is also genuinely great fun.
Your home will resound with cheerful chanting of conjugations and declensions as endings are learnt by heart, and you will become proficient in English grammar as a “side effect”.
Using our method, those of you who have struggled with Latin at school will find that it suddenly makes sense.
And it doesn’t matter whether you have done any Latin (or Greek) before, or you have but have forgotten what you once knew and need our help to get the cogs moving again.
Why do we love Latin, and what do we offer?
• Latin teaches people how to think, how to tackle different languages, and how to make a start on using logic in order to work things out.
• Many pupils have told us how learning Latin with us had a knock-on effect for other subjects, as now they know the best way of learning, “how to learn”.
• Common Entrance and Scholarship level, GCSE, A-Level support – we cover them all, and in the quickest and easiest way.
• Home-schooled children are welcome.
• And adults too. Our grown-ups love it and really see its benefits, even if it can take a bit more time to learn the all-important “endings”.
Learning something by heart, however short, becomes increasingly important as people get older, as new dendrite “pathways” need to be created to delay the mental aging process.
