CLAMO!

Classical Languages & Ancient Mentoring Outreach

(clamo = Latin for I shout!)

About the Program

CLAMO is our society’s very own mentoring program, developed and designed to support students studying the Classical Languages (Ancient Greek and/or Latin), at the University of Queensland.

Our mentors are here to assist you with any aspect of your Classical Languages studies, be it translations, grammar, conjugations or declensions – no question or query is a wrong one!

The program is free for all Classical Languages students at UQ, regardless of whether you hold a current membership with CAHS.

Access the Program

In Semester 2 of 2021, we are going to continue our weekly group mentoring, held in Michie Building (09) Room 536, where students have the opportunity to come in for weekly, or stand-alone sessions throughout the semester as needed. These will be held from Week 3 at 10:30am-11:30am every Tuesday.

In addition, we will also be running one-on-one weekly mentoring! In expressing your interest, you will be matched with a mentor of aligning skill, and participate in 30-60 minute mentoring, fill out your expression of interest here: https://forms.gle/HtXgJZNwMZ8csWV56

Please don’t hesitate to send us an email at cahs.uq@gmail.com if you have any queries, or come to Michie (09) Room 536 on Tuesdays between 10:30am-11:30am.
