to the contentHomework
1-2 hours per week. Building on the previous lesson, students should spend about an hour preparing for the next one. When the next lesson will be reading, students should try the reading for themselves beforehand, and then we will go over it in class. If the next lesson will be workbook exercises, students should go over those exercises beforehand. Be prepared to share your answers in class!Assessment
At the end of the course, the students will be tested on the "Pensa" (Exercises) that appear at the end of each chapter. Students scoring a 70% accuracy or better will be ready to move onto Latin Fluency 2. Students with lower scores should meet with the teacher for 1-on-1 tutoring before moving onto the next level.Class Experience
US Grade 9 - 12
Beginner Level
Over these lessons, we will cover the first four chapters of our textbook "Lingua Latina per se Illustrata." Each lesson will alternate between reading and workbook, where one lesson focuses on reading and the other focuses on exercises in the workbook based on that same reading. This entry level course will go more slowly to help build the foundation. We will continue working with the same textbooks at a faster pace once that foundation has been set. We will learn Masculine, Feminine, and Neuter nouns in the 1st and 2nd Declensions, along with verbs in the 3rd Person indicative (Active and Passive) and 2nd Person Imperatives.

Parental Guidance
Not everything about the Roman world was good, so we will learn to be honest about and critical of the good, the bad, and the ugly about history. Specifically in this course, we will be exposed to parents beating their children and slavery.

After taking Latin in both high school and college, I have been tutoring Latin for the last five years and taught in school for the last two. My experience covers a broad age range from fifth graders to adults. I have also used several different learning methods between deductive grammar, the reading method, and the living language approach. I am personally more drawn to the living language approach, but incorporating the other two under that umbrella have been equally important. One high school client I tutored from the ground up has since gone on to pass the AP Latin exam, and I aim to do the same with your children.Reviews
