A rare Sunday post.

I generally do not post on Sundays. However, I teach Sunday School, and this morning, I told my class that I would post the following videos on my site.  We have been talking about the book of Acts and the beginning of the spread of the gospel. Like it or not,...

Can we catch up via recordings?

 I received this question: First of all, thank you for the new subscription option! This will make it possible for my kids to take the classes you offer.  I hope you get(almost) more subscribers than you can handle. My kids have completed Visual Latin 1, and they have...

Can I join late?

I received this question: My son is 12 and in the 8th grade. He has been taking Greek since 1st grade, but only started Latin 2 years ago. Because of a family move and circumstances of life, his Latin has not been as consist as I would have wished. I was thinking of...

Keep those videos

Have you ever watched a video and thought to yourself, "I have got to show this to Ricardo later?" Only if you have a friend named Ricardo. Of course, you may have other friends you want to show the video to.  If you are using Firefox as your browser, there is an easy...

I hope I finish before I lose it.

I spent most of Christmas break writing tests and quizzes for my website. In particular,  I wrote tests and quizzes for Henle Latin. At this point, I truly feel like I am about to lose my mind. This is one of the toughest episodes of self-torture I have ever taken on....

Write a list.

I hope you had a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I hope 2015 was good to you and that 2016 will be even better! Before life gets crazy busy again, I suggest you sit down and write a list. What would you like to accomplish this year?  Is there something you...

The backup plan.

In 68 days, my family and I are moving overseas.  We will be gone at least four months. I am going to start writing about the process here on my blog.  I typically don't write about private affairs, but so many people are asking.  It would actually save me a little...
