Re: Keith Rutter
Keith taught my Classical Sixth year group for about a term in, I think, 1961/2. He was standing in for W J Graham who was on sick leave. My recollection is that he was excellent as a teacher, though probably not officially qualified and also rather young for the job, especially by comparison with the mostly very experienced members of the then Classics Department. He took us very thoroughly through the Latin prose set text. I was personally so impressed that I borrowed his methods in later years when teaching Latin and Greek myself. In more recent times I met him at reunions of Queens' College, where his response to my repeated congratulations was always delightfully modest.
