About Nicholas
I am enthusiastic about Classics and want to share this passion with my students. In particular, I have a passion for languages, both ancient (Latin and Ancient Greek) and modern (French). I took up both Latin and Ancient Greek from scratch at University, so I am very familiar with the challenges posed by the learning of new languages, but also how best to overcome them. I also studied a varied set of A-Levels and GCSEs, which means that I am well-placed to tutor a wide range of subjects, including both sciences and humanities.
I tailor my tutorials to each individual student. In the first few lessons, I will try and gauge what he/she would like to focus on in our tutorials, and how he/she would like to structure our lessons.
I aim to prepare my students for their exams and ensure that they are approaching them in the most effective way. Having achieved excellent exam results at both school and university, I am well-placed for this. At the same time, I will encourage my students to think beyond the syllabus, and pursue their own interests and curiosity.
Whilst at school, I tutored Additional Mathematics to a pupil in year 10, and Latin to a pupil in year 12. I am currently tutoring beginner's Latin to a pupil in Year 7.

Recommendations

Nick Hooper has just graduated with a first class degree in Classics from the University of Oxford. He is a very bright and hardworking individual, and an excellent classicist. Indeed, he has mastery of all the main branches of the subject, especially languages (he is strong in both Latin and Classical Greek) and ancient history. Although a high achiever, Nick has both the ability and a sincere desire to help those who are not as able as he is, and he will be good at tutoring at all levels of the subject(s). He is patient and his explanations of ideas are clear and logical. He will make an excellent tutor and I commend him to you wholeheartedly.
I taught Nick from the first week of his degree and saw him until his graduation. He is an extraordinarily gifted young man who is adept with ancient languages, fluent when it comes to explaining difficult and complex subjects, and above all else generous and understanding. It is difficult to imagine anyone better suited to tutoring - I endorse him wholeheartedly.
