About Joseph

I am an Oxfordshire native, professional musician, and have recently completed my PhD at Balliol College, University of Oxford. In 2019 I obtained a first-class degree in Classics from Balliol, and in 2021 completed a Master's degree in Cuneiform Studies at Wolfson College, Oxford, with distinction. I am currently actively engaged in academic research in Classics and ancient languages and literature, and teach a wide range of subjects relating to this.

I have had extensive experience both tutoring and mentoring in person with individuals, as well as leading larger groups. I have worked with people of all ages, from primary and secondary school aged children to adults. As well as being qualified to tutor in Classics, I also have experience teaching Music and Music Theory, as well as some more obscure ancient languages such as Sumerian, Akkadian, and Hittite. I believe an essential part of the job of a tutor is to go beyond merely offloading information onto the student by building up a rapport with the individual in order to develop their academic self-confidence and technique. This involves having the student approach topics through a variety of different exercises, and regular reviewing of past topics. I also focus closely on exam technique, to ensure that the student's skills are reflected as positively as possible in their results. I aim to identify from the start each student's strengths and weaknesses by starting off with going over the basics of the subject, then swiftly increasing the difficulty though without rushing, until the student's level and areas of weakness become clear. My lessons are usually an hour long, but I am happy to be flexible.
