LONDON
The London Summer School in Classics offers two places in 2006 under the
CUCD/Friends of Classics ‘potential teachers’ scheme.
The Summer School provides a short intensive course of Greek and Latin language teaching aimed primarily at school pupils and university students. This year the School (non-residential) is being held at King’s College London from Tuesday 4th July to Wednesday 12th July. Students are assigned to tutorial groups (no larger than ten) on the basis of their level of attainment in Greek or Latin.
Potential teachers would be expected to stay for the duration of the School from 4th-12th July. They would be attached to an individual tutor and his/her group, and would attend group teaching sessions, observing and taking part as appropriate. They would be on-hand to offer students individual assistance, and would have the chance to observe a class other than the one to which they were assigned. They may also take the Tutor’s role in occasional sessions or part-sessions. They would be members of the teaching staff (currently about twenty classicists, including school teachers, university lecturers and postgraduate students), and benefit from the opportunity to discuss issues in classics teaching. At the end of School they would have a meeting with their assigned Tutor and the Director of the Summer School at which the experience would be reviewed.
Applicants, who must have reached - or be about to reach - at least the end of the penultimate year of their undergraduate course, should write to:
The Secretary of the London Summer School in Classics, Department of Classics, King’s College, The Strand, London WC2R 2LS.
