In this one-time course, we will learn how to pronounce classical Latin, dive into 1st and 2nd conjugation verbs, and translate some easy Latin phrases.
Class experience
In this class, we will start with the pronunciation of the Latin letters and how they should be inflected. We will talk about the difference between them and what we would normally say in our own language. I will have them practice and learn to greet me and others in Latin. We will start with first and second verbal conjugations. Translating Latin is like a puzzle and can be really satisfying when you start to understand what you are looking at. The students will learn a few vocabulary words...
Students will learn classical Latin pronunciations, 1st and 2nd conjugation verbs, and some vocabulary. They will be able to translate some very basic sentences by the end of class.
I have a BA in Latin, and continued its study in graduate school. I have taught and tutored students from elementary school Latin all the way through graduate level Latin.
Homework Offered
I will attach a handout with the vocabulary and conjugation charts. This should be used after the class to practice. Writing them will help solidify them in their minds. This work is not to be turned in, but it is a tool to help them master Latin.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
