An Introduction to Classical Latin
What you’ll learn
-
Learn to read and write Latin, as well as memorize a large vocabulary of Latin words.
Learn the basics of Classical Latin in this first of two introductory courses. Students who take this course will learn basic Latin grammar and syntax, as well as a comprehensive vocabulary, which expands with each lesson.
Benefits of taking this class include:
– Learning the father language of all Romantic languages (Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, French). This is an excellent gateway language to learning many new languages in the future.
– Learning the etymology of thousands of English words which derive their meaning from Latin.
– Learning the mechanics of a new language will help students come to a better understanding of grammar in their own language.
Materials Included:
– Short 3-7 minute lectures for each lesson
– Document accompanying each lesson subject, which includes 10-15 vocabulary word list
– Sentences to translate from Latin to English and English to Latin
– Self-test exams every five chapters
– Answer key for exams and translation exercises
– Bonus vocabulary list (which I will continue to add to)
Who this course is for:
- This Latin course is for those interested in learning new languages and reading the manuscripts of ancient historians and philosophers. This course is not for those who are looking for advanced Latin courses, as this is an introductory course.

Really clear pronunciation guidance and easy to consumer grammar guidance.
Paul Fahn –
Great course! This course taught me all the basics of Latin grammar, and gave me a feel for the language. The teacher is knowledgeable, and explains the concepts clearly. He also prepared exercises for each lesson that reinforce the material. I would definitely take another class from him.
Rachod –
This first time course is great and clear. The teacher runs the course little by little. Great Job indeed.

salvēte! The Lesson 1 in this course helped me know the basic sounds of latin language and how to pronounce it in the correct way. Valēte.
Desmond Clark –
Because the course is good
Katherine Rogers –
I have seen other Latin courses where the pronunciation makes the course unusable. I applaud his effort to pronounce Latin as suggested re the Revised Classical pronunciation.
Praveen Mohadevan –
Great! He makes it really easy to understand and it’s well worth my money!
John Hughes –

Bartholomew Simpson –
Latin was something i have wanted to learn for a long time, the course structure looks great , no pressure no rushing plus being able to print material at end of each lesson is a major bonus
