I'm bilingual (half-Greek, half-English) and lived in Greece till I was 11.
While at Oxford, I acted in and directed plays as I've always enjoyed drama. This led me to writing a few scripts and poetry of my own! I was also involved in the student paper, "The Oxford Student", which I wrote and edited articles for for. My degree required me to take a year abroad in Athens as well, during which I undertook a course in translation, and work-experience in an Athenian law firm.
My work in Comparative Literature has always been interdisciplinary; so I enjoy finding different, engaging ways through which to help my students grapple with their subjects. As part of my PhD program at Harvard, I currently work as a teaching assistant on undergraduate literary courses, and am responsible for running two 'sections' (or classes) of 12 undergraduate students a week. I'm currently teaching Ancient Greek literature in translation and will be teaching on a course regarding philosophers and tyrants in literature from Plato to the present-day next semester.
In the past six years I have been with Spires, I have helped school pupils and adults alike, with everything from A Level and IGCSE English to Modern Greek language learning. I have also volunteered in schools' Autism Resource Bases, helping to support students with their work, and spent a year working for a competitive independent school in Oxford, assisting Sixth Form students with their university applications and homework.
