About Sophie

Hello and welcome,
My name is Sophie. I work as a Teacher of Latin at Brighton College and as a Mental Health Youth Support Worker around East Sussex.

I graduated from Trinity College Dublin with a 1st in Classics and went on to complete a Masters in custodial rehabilitation.

A bit about my love of Classics and specifically Latin - I first discovered my love for Greek myths and Latin language at school. At Trinity College Dublin, I was surrounded by the most inspiring professors and I could not have loved the course more. In 2018, I curated a Latin camp, which involved three days of Latin learning and Greek myth discussions at the end of August.

I have taught all levels, from beginners to A-level, and love working with my students to focus on their strengths and weaknesses.

Please get in touch if you are looking for a tutor!

Vocabulary and principal parts are key. So I begin with 20-word quizzes.

Set text learning: can seem mundane, but if you engage with and find the humour immersed in the text, it can be made easy and relatable to learn, whether that's Ovid, Pliny, Virgil or Cicero! I would suss out the best fitting method that would suit my pupil, then decide which method to embark upon. I personally used a variety of techniques, with mini wipe board, creating songs, summarising each scene, speaking it aloud repeatedly, etc.

Translation technique: I would demonstrate methods of translating, often with different coloured highlighters, and by underlining the subject, verb and object of each sentence. I would encourage anyone to find the most suitable method for themselves.
