A bit of Roman gossip
|
I have just published my latest video in easy Latin for GCSE students, which I had great fun recording. Even if you are not using this OCR set text, you can enjoy it with just some basic vocabulary. So go ahead! Once you have watched it using the link below, I would love to hear your thoughts on the resources you need to make your Latin learning and exam preparation journey successful. Do you prefer short stories? Or do gap-fill exercises work best for you? Are you perhaps a translation person? Or are you a prose composition convert? I would need to put my hand up for that one when it comes to grammar! However you learn Latin, just reply to this email and let me know what resources you need the most. I am currently updating my GCSE Grammar revision course as well as my resources on Patreon, and it would be great to help fill your gaps. And before you forget: do send me your requests for new resources! I am all ears. |

salve Reader! Parents often come to me with questions about the best language GCSE for their child: Is it enough to take just one language, modern or ancient? What combination of languages works best? Is it too difficult to get a 9 in any of the language GCSEs? How does the language you choose affect your chances for a Russell Group university, or for a course in particular? And what happens if you do not take any languages at all? Having celebrated outstanding GCSE results just a couple of...
salve Reader! First things first: results are coming. I will be available for consultation all day on the 14th and 21st, and will be offering advice and support around those dates if needed, as well as celebrating before we all have a well-deserved rest in preparation for the new school year. But before I disconnect for my holiday (yes, even Latin teachers must rest, even if said rest includes archaeological sites!), I wanted to share with you some exciting news: I have been invited to be...
