SUMMARY:How does Classical Greek accentuation work?
DESCRIPTION:This on-line beginners’ course in Classical Greek Accentuation is delivered to you by London’s City Lit\, Europe’s largest centre for adult education.\n \n\n \nDates: 26/09/23 – 31/10/23\n \nTime: 14:00 – 15:30\n \nLocation: Online\n \nTutor: Andrew David (Biography below)\n \nCourse content\n \n\nWhether you are a student of Greek or a teacher of Greek\, if you have always wanted to apply the correct accentuation on Classical Greek texts\, but have never quite learnt how to do so – then this is your opportunity to gain a working knowledge of this essential skill for the teaching and learning of Classical Greek.\n\n \n\nTo book a place on this course visit https://www.citylit.ac.uk/ and search for course RG039.\n\n \n\n\n\n \nAbout Andrew David\n \n\nI studied Classics and trained as an English Language and Classics teacher\, at Pembroke College Oxford\, Exeter University\, International House\, and Harrow College of Further Education. I have over thirty years’ experience as an English Language teacher and ESOL Programme Manager in Further Education; and over twenty years’ experience designing and delivering museum tours for English Language students\, at the Victoria and Albert Museum and the British Museum. At the British Museum I also offer workshops for children on Ancient Greek and Egyptian Life\, and I have taught on the Museum’s Iraq Emergency Programme\, delivering English Language training for Iraqi Archaeologists. My first Classics teaching was private tuition in 1983\, and I have over twenty years’ of Classics teaching experience\, in Primary\, Secondary and Adult Education. Since 2012 I have been a  Tutor of Classics at City Lit\, where I currently teach Latin and Greek courses on-line\, and face-to-face at the British Museum: recent specialist courses include ‘Learning Latin through Latin’ (by the Direct Method)\, and Greek Accentuation. Publishing work includes leading on the forthcoming audio facility for the course-book ‘Reading Latin’ (Cambridge University Press 2016) widely used on Adult Education and University Classics courses. In all my courses I try to include speaking and listening work\, thus following the students’ stated preference for hearing how we think Latin and Greek were spoken in Classical times.
