Research-Led Teaching Philosophy

In preparing lessons, I define specific learning goals for each session, while also emphasising the development of students’ general knowledge, critical thinking, verbal argumentation, and writing skills in Ancient History. In tutorials, I aim to facilitate discussions on primary sources and the analysis of ancient texts. These are complemented by critical visual analysis and ekphrasis of archaeological and artistic works. Learning goals combined pictures and text to build ‘historical sense’, adding secondary sources when needed, identifying gaps in the reading list, taking note of student experience, and adjusting accordingly.
