About William
I am a current third-year undergraduate at the University of Cambridge, reading Classics. The primary focuses of my undergraduate study thus far, apart from the Latin and Ancient Greek languages, have been classical literature, Platonic philosophy, and ancient history, although I also have a grounding in linguistics. Placed in the top 25% of my cohort in the 2021 examinations, and was deemed to have acquitted myself with credit in both Latin and Greek composition.
Furthermore, I have A Levels in History, Politics, and Economics (I am open to enquiries about tuition in these subjects) and studied Mathematics to AS Level. At GCSE level, I studied fourteen subjects, securing 8 A*s and 4 As.
I am a great advocate for the importance of studying the humanities, and in particular the classical world, and I believe that a strong grasp of the classical languages is an imperative, and something that I love to help other students achieve by sharing my first-rate education from the country’s finest Classics faculty.
At University, I am actively involved in student life, including as the Vice President of my College’s May Ball, Business Manager of the European Theatre Group, and Treasurer of the University Amateur Dramatics Club, the oldest drama society in the country, amongst other responsibilities and activities, ranging from Gilbert and Sullivan operas to Rugby Union.

Lessons are focussed on building a strong command of the Latin language, with a view to students being able to engage directly with and translate classical texts confidently, particularly for more experienced learners, for whom additional contextual knowledge about texts can also be provided. Grammar is central to the learning process, and a traditional approach will be adopted to the acquisition of morphology and vocabulary where necessary, including setting students items to be memorised.
Lessons are adapted to the specific needs and goals of the individual student, but can include explanations and examples of grammatical concepts, working through practice exercises, past papers and passages, translation techniques, and prose composition, drawing upon my experiences of the teaching employed by the world-renowned supervision system used to teach undergraduates at the University of Cambridge.
