About Me
italki teacher since May 31, 2025InterestsReadingMusicArtWritingHistory
I study at the Italian Academy Vivarium Novum and at the same time finish my Bachelor's degree in Classical Philology at Taras Shevchenko Kyiv National University. For two years I worked as a copywriter in social media and SEO - until I decided to return to dead languages. I play a bit of guitar, do a bit of fencing and love reading fantasy.Me as a Teacher
I prefer the natural inductive method of teaching and the 'Familia Romana' textbook used at the Vivarium Novum Academy, so that you can understand Latin like your mother tongue and read the songs of Catullus and the wars of Caesar like modern fiction - easily and with pleasure. We don't just learn grammar, we read, speak, write and do all sorts of exercises in Latin. My lessons & teaching style
When reading the 'Familia Romana' textbook, we will use English for the first few chapters and gradually move on to spoken Latin. I prefer to skip the 'memorising grammar' part and practise the language by reading and speaking from the very first lessons.
We'll read stories, do various grammar tests and improve your level by speaking - because that's the most powerful tool you'll ever have when it comes to learning a language. After completing Familia Romana, students are usually able to start reading Caesar with commentaries and even Roman poetry - Catull and Ovid, for example.My teaching material

Victorius walked me through a chapter of Familia Romana, explained words and concepts, and gave some useful examples. I particularly liked the questions that pushed me to think about other ways of saying a thing in Latin, and other parts of the same declension.
