What will I achieve? By the end of this course you should be able to...

analyse and render indirect speech in extended passages
What level is the course and do I need any particular skills?
The course is suitable for those who have studied Latin for approximately 4 years or have an equivalent knowledge (A Level or first year of a university course). As this course is taught in English, please read the outline carefully to decide if you may benefit from support with your English skills to help you take part fully in this class.
How will I be taught, and will there be any work outside the class?
The course consists of grammar instructions, grammar exercises and translation with a high level of student interaction (individual, pair and group work). Students are expected to do the homework regularly, check the material uploaded on Google Classroom and participate in oral classroom activities. Homework will require approx. 2-3 hours per week.
Are there any other costs? Is there anything I need to bring?
My name is Elena Giulia, and I was born in Rome. I have always nourished an insatiable curiosity for classical languages (nomen omen!). When I was a child I used to roam around in my city, writing down all the Latin inscriptions of top of churches and buildings, which were patiently translated by my mother, who was a Latin teacher herself. I studied in the Liceo Classico and after that I graduated in the University of Rome “La Sapienza” with a thesis on Latin Satire. I studied in the Vatican City and obtained a degree in Archiving. I moved to Dublin for the following year, obtaining my second MA in Classics, with a work on Classical reception in James Joyce. This inevitably led me to my current field of research. I am in fact a DPhil student in Oxford University, where I am studying Lev Tolstoy and his interests in Classical tragedy. I have been teaching Classical Greek and Latin for 15 years and I have been a tutor in CityLit since 2019. I also work in Oxford University as a Latin instructor for the Outreach programme. I very much enjoy teaching Classical languages and sharing my passion for these ever growing and fascinating subjects!
