About Tabby

Hi! I'm Tabby, and I studied Classics at the University of Oxford. I graduated this summer with a first-class degree. Classics includes reading Latin and Ancient Greek with fluency, as well as writing essays on the history, literature, and philosophy of Ancient Rome and Greece. My specialties were languages and history.

I am well equipped to teach Latin, History, English (literature and language) and Spanish to GCSE and A-level standard, and also to coach Oxbridge admissions for most humanities subjects. I'm only 22 years old, so I completed my GCSEs and A-levels not too long ago, and I know the importance of understanding and using the mark scheme and exam board to your benefit whilst still engaging with the subject and making the knowledge useful. I'd love to help those who are struggling to bridge the gap between, for example, the simple sentences and vocabulary of Cambridge Latin Course versus the trickier and more complex grammar and structures of GCSE or A-level texts and literature. Please get in touch so that we can consider how best to proceed!

About the lesson

Languages: I fully believe that, although Latin and Greek are ancient languages, they can be made engaging and straightforward by the right teacher; instead of just telling a student that 'that's how it is', I explain the reasoning and patterns behind the grammar and wording of Classical texts, because there is almost always a reason. I promise that Latin actually does make sense when you know what to look for!

Essay writing: My degree has also given me great experience in analysis of history, literature and essay writing, and as an A* English Literature A-level student, I could confidently teach the ins and outs of what examiners are looking for with your particular exam board or paper, and how to make an essay question work for you, with the knowledge you have. Please don't hesitate to get in touch!

I'm happy to teach any age of student and to discuss further how we can make a tutoring programme work for you.

Perfect! Tabby is a wonderful tutor, and I highly recommend her because of her empathy, integrity, and patience.

She is extremely conscientious in her teaching style, which makes it a relaxing but structured environment in which to learn. Tabby is very approachable, and during our lessons always shows tact as the whether to speed up or slow down the lesson pace to suit my understanding.

Tabby's personality type definitely suits teaching, supporting, and guiding people to learn from her Latin competency.

Tabby's response
Peter was a wonderful, worthwhile student! He always worked hard to make the most of lessons by focussing, asking questions, and putting in time to his Latin in between sessions. He grasped new concepts quickly, or asked me to clarify further, which allowed us to work efficiently together without a student pretending to understand something that they didn't. He was appreciative of extra time I put in to planning lessons, and was very friendly, with a sense of humour. I would recommend Peter to any tutor.
