At The Classical Institute, the study of Ancient Greek and Latin offers direct engagement with the languages and texts that form the foundations of the Western intellectual and literary traditions. Our teaching places rigorous study of grammar and syntax alongside sustained engagement with original texts, enabling students to develop the linguistic competence required for increasingly independent reading and interpretation.
Through small, focused classes, students develop precision, confidence and judgement while encountering the literature, philosophy and intellectual traditions of the ancient world in their original languages.
