Wojciech Mazur

I teach Classics, Latin, Ancient Greek, English Language and Literature and History. I have 3 years' experience working in education, including tutoring individuals and small groups of diverse age groups from primary-aged children to adult learners across a range of school, university and private settings. I am a qualified University Teacher, leading groups of undergraduates studying their BA in Classics and Ancient History.

I am a current PhD student in Classics and Ancient History at the University of Liverpool, having achieved my MA in Classics and Ancient History at the University of Exeter with a Distinction in 2023. I am also a Bachelor of Law with 1st Class Honours.

Being a PhD Candidate in Ancient History, I conduct research and academic writing in which I work with diverse historical sources, as well as the languages of the ancient world on a daily basis. I have been involved in a substantial amount of assessment at degree-level. I am excellently equipped to support learners, whatever their aspirations and needs, in all Classics-related subjects, as well as English and History, which require a very similar skill-set to the one I use in my research work.

Also having a strong background in Law through my A Level and LLB, in which I gained a 1st Class degree, as well as relevant work experience assisting solicitors at a law firm, I am also in a good position to offer tutoring in Law.

I am currently a University Teacher with experience teaching seminars and poster workshops to undergraduate students on the Homeric poems. I previously tutored pupils across KS2 and 3 on a weekly basis in after-school clubs, with many pupils returning for successive academic terms and wholeheartedly engaging with the learning.

I present the concepts in visually appealing and tactile ways that develop the pupils' awareness of the wider world through Classics. I link the language back to cultural phenomena of the ancient (and modern) world and to English words derived from Greek and Latin vocabulary. I also make use of the Greek and Latin to GCSE textbooks by John Taylor, the Cambridge Latin Course, GCSE and A Level past papers and other online and offline resources. I am also experienced at producing and altering my own teaching resources that respond to students' interests, strengths and weaknesses. I have also previously tutored English Literature online. Further and as part of my role as a TA, I have extensive experience in working on a 1-1 basis with pupils and am committed to their personal development and goals.

I am driven to share my passion for the subjects I teach, especially ancient Greek and Latin languages and cultures with students of all ages, coupling my professional-level subject knowledge (gained partially through rigorous self-study) with patience and sensitivity for students with varying (including special) needs and their interests.
