I received this sad (and, oh so frequent) question: I have an 11th grade student who is in Classical Conversations.  She has been doing Henle Latin for the last 4 years (Henle 1 and 2).  I have not been doing it with her.  Now she is in Challenge 3 and supposed to be...

I received this question: I have taken Lingua Latina recorded with Mr Thomas before.  I am considering taking Spanish this year with the live class. When does Spanish class start?  How much does it cost?  Would you recommend trying a new language or getting more...

Um. Yep.  :-).                                           Read the full article here:...

Seriously. What is it going to take to get Christians to pull their kids out of the public indoctrination camps (government schools)? At this point, I have no idea what it is going to take. All of my adult life I have listened to fellow Christians cheer on the public...

I received this question: I am a student of Henle First year latin, and I'm wondering how on earth will I ever be able to read the New Testament at the end of this book! All we ever learn about is the Romans and the Gauls killing each other, and the vocabulary seems...

I received this question: One of my girls would rather do Spanish than Latin, is that possible? Here is my reply: I only charge per family… not per student, and not per class.   A subscription grants access to every live class I teach. It also grants access to all of...

I received this question: Hello, I have a daughter who is in Classical Conversations Challenge 1.  She has done 2 years of Henle 1 (up to lesson 29) and is bored to death. She is a good Latin student and I was considering switching her to Lingua Latina. I would have...

For the moment, I am offering live Q and A/Orientation classes every Wednesday afternoon from 2-3 pm central time zone.  (Let me know if another time works better for you.  I may be able to switch times.) Here is the latest in case you missed it:...

One of the most common questions I get is, "Which books do I order?"  For Latin, Greek, et cetera.  I spend a lot of time responding to emails with answers to these questions. About a week ago, it hit me.  I should just develop the resource pages on my own site.  Duh....

One of the most common questions I get (especially these days) is, "Which books do I order?" In the past, I have responded to each of these questions individually by listing the books, and linking to the books. Then, about ten days ago, the obvious hit me.  "Just...

Whenever I try to learn a language, as much as possible, I like to learn much about the history of the language. These days, I am hyper-focused on Spanish. When taking a break from studying the language itself, I have been reading about the language... by reading The...

Not long ago, my students and I just finished another trip through Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata, by Hans Orberg. Every time I read this book, I am amazed. I am amazed at how well it teaches Latin.  And, I am amazed at how tough it is. Did you catch that?  Let me...
