👋🏼👋🏼BRAND NEW STUDENT to Outschool? Use code MrsAjei2020 to save $20 on this class! 👋🏼👋🏼 You already know the number one thing that Latin students struggle with: setting aside the time to practice their vocabulary and grammar. I have taught Latin to hundreds of students on Outschool and I don't want any of my students to struggle. I have designed these classes to help all students to succeed. One of the many techniques I use to help students learn is that I teach your child twice-a-week. Twice-a-week lessons help your child to remember what has been taught and over the school year I encourage your child to develop and improve their study habits. During 2024-2025, I will teach four units of Latin. This is the second unit, Latin for Beginners | Part 2. You can take this unit between August and December 2024 and January to March 2025. The remaining units are Latin for Beginners | Part 3 (April - June) Latin for Beginners | Part 4 (August - December 2025) After Latin for Beginners | Part 3, you may be ready to sit the National Latin Exam Beginner's Level although I recommend taking Latin for Beginners | Part 4 first. In this year's cohort, 75% of my students achieved the gold level and one student had a perfect paper! I'm looking forward to teaching Latin to your child and seeing your child succeed.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Welcome to Outschool.
I'm Janella. I've been a teacher for over twenty years and I help busy parents who want their children to be stretched (intellectually)!
I teach weekly lessons in Latin. Your child will learn grammar, expand their vocabulary and improve their independent study habits.
I have studied Latin for almost ten years and I am studying for a master's at the University of Cambridge.
On Outschool, my classes are consistently given high ratings by families because I explain clearly and help your child to understand and master difficult concepts. I have taught over 700 learners with most families staying with me for a full academic year and often, longer.
After studying with me, learners from the United States typically sit the National Latin exam or continue to study Latin at their Catholic or classical schools. Learners from South Korea and Hong Kong find my classes perfect as preparation before starting at a school in England while learners in Australia and Canada choose my classes to enrich their experience at school.
Whatever your reasons for wanting to learn Latin, I look forward to helping your learner start their Latin journey .
