Ancient Greek Tutoring
Classics is a subject that often captures minds at a very early age. For a student fascinated by the mysteries of Socrates’ Athens, the epic story of the Trojan War or the beauty of the Parthenon, a journey of rich discovery awaits. At Wentworth Education our Classicists all honed their Ancient Greek at the best universities in the world. They understand how daunting it can be to approach Plato or Homer for the first time and how rewarding it is when you begin to truly understand the text.
We offer Classics tuition for students of all ages. For any ambitious student who wishes to read Classics at the famous and antiquated departments of Oxford or Cambridge, Ancient Greek A-Level is one of the best possible subjects to study. Our tutors are also on hand to help you through your translation and prose composition at a university level. We even assist graduate-level academics from other fields who wish to broaden the remit of their scholarship.
Ancient Greek language teaching requires a different approach to modern European languages. The characters can be intimidating to new students and learning a language which so few people can speak, removes the easiest route to familiarity for any aspiring linguist. This is where our tutors’ passion for classics can really shine. At Wentworth Education we strongly believe that when a pupil develops an interest in less common subjects such as Ancient Greek they should be encouraged and inspired to follow that path. Our Classics tutors are specialists in providing this inspiration. Their love for the art and literature of the Ancient world makes them fascinating teachers and the perfect guides for any aspiring young scholar!

Dr Karis Riley – Private Tutor in Central London
I am a Medieval and Renaissance literary historian. I have a BA in Philosophy (cum laude), a PhD in English Literature, a master's in Classics from the University of Oxford, for which I was awarded the top distinction in my year, and recently held an AHRC-funded postdoc on the History Faculty at the University of Cambridge (2019-2020) to explore how cultures remembered and forgot the European religious reformations in the early modern period. An American and British citizen, I have academic and cultural experience on both sides of the Atlantic. As a teenager I also lived a few years in Sofia, Bulgaria, attending an exceptional school in Eastern Europe that offered the IB Diploma. My interdisciplinary academic background and training means I am competent to teach at the crossroads of a number of disciplines. I am enthusiastic about motivating all kinds of people of all ages to pursue knowledge. My greatest piece of advice to students is to help them see that enjoying study is the best way to mature and flourish intellectually. ...
