I first learned Latin in primary school. As a linguist, Romance languages have been one of my areas of specialization, thus I have taught and conducted research in Latin for several decades.
Homework Offered
Twenty minutes per class period (i.e., forty to forty-five minutes a week) of work outside class is required.

Within class, I will provide regular comprehension checks, both written and oral, to ascertain students' comprehension and to direct my lesson plans/need for reinforcement.Grades Offered
Material for taking notes and completing written work.
I have always based my Latin instruction on the Wheelock's Latin textbook.
