About the Tutor:
My working life was spent as a high school mathematics teacher. I enrolled in Latin at U3A six years ago, and after a couple of years offered to be a tutor of beginners, as well as continuing as a student. It has been very enjoyable, and has helped me greatly with my own learning. Latin is challenging but fascinating.If you are a U3A Brisbane member you may enrol in this class online using the Enrol button below.
