Bio
I have a Ph.D. in Classics from the University of California, Berkeley, and a Masters degree in Greek and Latin Languages and Literature from the University of Oxford, from where I received my B.A. in Classics. To date I have publications in two peer-reviewed journals pertaining to classical studies.
​
My main strength is in the linguistic side of Classics, so I am well equipped to provide tuition in Greek and Latin languages at all levels. I also specialise in the more technical disciplines of classical studies such as papyrology, palaeography, and textual criticism, all of which complement the study of ancient languages especially well. Alongside the languages, I am experienced at teaching various aspects of classical literature, history, and culture.
​
Aside from private tuition, I taught Latin for a short time at Marymount International (a private all-girls school in London). Later, I was a Classics Lecturer at U. C. Berkeley, where I taught seminars on classical languages and literature and directed the university's intensive Latin summer programme.
