Higher Classical Civilisation tutors
1 UK tutor who teach Classical Civilisation at Higher.
Classical Civilisation (OCR is the dominant board) covers Greek and Roman literature, art, mythology and society through texts in translation: Homer, Virgil, Greek tragedy, Roman epic, plus archaeology and material culture. It's a strong choice for students drawn to history, literature or philosophy, and it needs no Latin or Greek. Tutoring helps most with extended essay technique and with the visual and material analysis components, which are unfamiliar territory for most students. Look for tutors with a classics or ancient history background. Schools often staff this subject from English or History departments.
Scottish Higher is the standard Scottish sixth-year qualification, sat in S5 (age 16-17), and is the main route into Scottish university applications (which run on a different cycle from English UCAS). Most students take five Highers in S5, with strong applicants sitting another year of Advanced Highers in S6. The qualification is administered by the SQA (now Qualifications Scotland), with coursework and examination components. Tutoring helps most with subject content, with the coursework write-ups, and with exam-paper technique under SQA mark schemes. Match the tutor to SQA experience specifically.
