This week I was joined by one of our Latin Programme teachers, Alex MacKeith. Alex has a BA in Classics and an MPhil in Classical Literature for which he specialised in Greek tragedy and poetry of the late Roman Republic. He teaches Latin to Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 in our schools in Central and North London. We talked about Alex’s own classical education, some tricks of the teaching trade, and what he tells his students who ask why on earth he’s teaching them a dead language.
