Stephen M
Effective Latin tutor
I am friendly, approachable and experience tutor in Literature, Languages and Humanities. I started tutoring soon after finishing my Joint Honours degree in English and French at Magdalen College, Oxford, but fortunately I found that my education had only just started! Therefore, I have spent over a decade now working with students - both in state and private education - in French, English Literature, Classics and History of Art. Tutoring normally from Key Stage 3 to Key Stage 5, specialising in GCSEs and A levels, I would say that my lessons are usually planned collaboratively. I take the student’s l...

Hiya! I am a languages tutor who loves to incorporate cultural knowledge into how I teach vocabulary and grammar! I like to emphasise practice, practice, practice in a range of ways through fun activities like blooket and games as well as past paper questions.

I incorporate a range of exercises that help to revise reading, listening, writing and speaking skills. I teach online so in order to explain new concepts through presentations or to go over questions I share my screen...

My experience includes the following:- I have single-handedly taught a Year 8 student French GCSE.

David L
David is definitely one of the best tutors I have ever had! I am a university student and reached out to him about two months ago, wanting to learn Latin from scratch for personal interest, with the goal of sitting the GCSE Latin exam in about six months. While most tutors I approached dismissed this as unrealistic, David took on the challenge without hesitation.
His lessons are truly exceptionally well delivered, with a level of precision that reflects thorough preparation and extensive teaching experience. Through our weekly lessons, we have been able to cover more than half of the language component of the GCSE within just 2 months! But more importantly, I am able to retain the material effectively because David consistently incorporates active recall into our lessons and offers really useful advice on how to memorise things by building logical connections. His explanations are clear and succinct, lessons are well structured, and his ability to adjust the pace to my progress has made the learning process both manageable and effective.
David is also incredibly patient and motivating. His teaching style gives me full confidence that he can work effectively with learners of all levels and backgrounds. I would highly recommend him as you Latin tutor!

Ellie T
Ellie has provided outstanding support in my preparation for the WJEC Latin examinations.
Prior to beginning weekly tuition, I found the subject particularly challenging; however, through her clear explanations, structured approach, and consistent guidance, I have made significant progress and developed much greater confidence.
As I work towards my pre-GCSE mock examinations and my GCSEs next year, I am very pleased to be continuing my lessons with Ellie. Her professionalism and expertise have been invaluable, and I hope to benefit from her tuition throughout my GCSE studies.

Cian K
Cian has been an excellent excellent tutor for my daughter in A Level Latin. Latin used to be by far my daughter’s most difficult and least enjoyable subject. She was stuck on a B/C grade no matter how much she revised, and found the Prose Composition section impossible.
Despite starting lessons just a few months before the exams, Cian has encouraged my daughter and gone through all her weaker areas thoroughly with a strong focus on exam practice via textbooks and past papers alongside teaching her content with fantastic notes and examples. Cian has been a kind tutor with great communication and has eased all my daughter’s concerns in Latin, giving her confidence.
She has just achieved an A overall, with the Prose Composition being her best paper (45/50), something she never ever thought she could achieve. Thank you so so much Cian!

Emanuele P
Emanuele has been helping my daughter in Latin A-level as she was struggling bit to catch up with all the content and had a lack of confidence. In just a few lessons, he has already brought her up to scratch in all the aspects she was struggling with: unseen translations, comprehension and literature essays. Emanuele is friendly and supportive, and came to every lesson well prepared. He has also been providing many useful resources to supplement my daughter’s learning every week. Many thanks so far Emanuele!

Joseph B
We hired Joseph as my son had gained a conditional place to Eton and being an old Etonian, we thought Joseph would be perfect knowing what would be required academically. And we were not wrong. Having never been taught Latin or Greek, our son had to have a certain knowledge for his first year. My son tells me that Joseph made the lessons fun and the two of them got on really well. Joe was very punctual, thorough and obviously had put in a lot of time in the lesson planning. My son was happy to meet someone who had experienced Eton and who could talk to him about it. We recommend Joe whole heartedly. Thank you so much Joe!

How can a Latin tutor help my child excel in Barnet's competitive academic environment?
Many schools in Barnet, like Queen Elizabeth's and Henrietta Barnett, have a strong focus on academic rigor. A Latin tutor can provide your child with personalised, in-depth support to master the subject, giving them a significant edge. This focused attention helps them build a strong foundation, develop critical thinking, and potentially stand out for competitive university applications in fields where Latin is highly valued.
Can a Latin tutor help my child with their application to Russell Group universities?
Absolutely. For subjects like Classics, History, or even Law, a strong foundation in Latin is incredibly beneficial and often viewed favourably by Russell Group universities. A tutor can help your child deepen their understanding, excel in exams, and even discuss how their Latin studies connect to broader academic interests, enhancing their personal statement and interview preparation.
How do you ensure the quality and safety of your Latin tutors?
We take tutor vetting seriously. We only accept the best – just 1 in 8 tutors who apply to Tutorful are approved.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we excel in academic subjects like Latin, GCSE Maths, or A-Level Physics, Tutorful also offers a wide range of tutors for personal development and hobbies. Your child could learn to code, improve their piano skills, or even get support for university-level studies. It's about empowering learning in all its forms.
How can a Latin tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring creates a safe, supportive space where your child can ask questions without fear of judgment. By breaking down complex concepts, celebrating small victories, and adapting to their pace, a tutor helps your child understand the material better, which naturally boosts their confidence and engagement with the subject.
