Classics Teacher

Classics teachers work at secondary schools across Australia teaching students ancient Greek and Roman languages and culture. They also introduce their students to classical art, philosophy, literature, and politics.

As a classics teacher you’ll be developing lesson plans and learning tools according the Australian Curriculum’s framework for classical languages and ancient history. You’ll have the regular duties of a high school teacher (grading papers, assigning homework, monitoring classroom behaviour, interacting with parents), but you may also be arranging school excursions and interactive experiences at museums and classical theatre productions.
