About Barnaby
I am a recent Classics graduate of Balliol College, University of Oxford, where I achieved a Congratulatory Double First.
I have extensive knowledge of Latin and Ancient Greek, considerable experience in Roman and Greek history (146BC-54AD and 479-300BC respectively), and considerable knowledge of all genres of Greek literature. I am very familiar with favourite A-level texts, namely the Iliad and Aeneid, as well as the works of Plato and Tacitus, having studied these for my second-year Honour Moderations. Given this breadth of knowledge, I will be able to assist prospective Classics, Ancient History, and CAAH students across a range of topics.
I will also be able to tutor English Language and Literature at GCSE and A-Level. Over four years at Oxford, I developed excellent analytical skills and writing technique, with which I will be able to assist students. Moreover, I understand how to write for these exams, having achieved full UMS in both my GCSE and A-Level English Literature exams.
Outside of academia, I was fully involved in sporting life at Balliol College. I regularly played rugby, cricket, football and lacrosse for my college teams, and was Captain of both the cricket and mixed lacrosse teams in my third year. Consequently, I will be able to give a vivid picture of life at an Oxford college.
Teaching Experience
I previously tutored two Elizabeth College students for Oxbridge interviews, running mock tutorial sessions where we talked through their submitted essays. As part of these I also included some unprompted problem questions, trying to walk the students through certain logical and philosophical scenarios which were included in my interviews at Balliol, since they had had no previous exposure to Classical philosophy or formal logic. Though these sessions were fairly informal, they have taught me how to communicate in an effective and accessible manner with sixth-form students.
