Latin for Life-Long Learners - Spring Semester

This is the second semester of this class. Semester A is a prerequisite for attending Semester B.

This online class is for life-long learners who would like to learn Latin for the purpose of being able to access Latin literature and poetry in its original form; anyone who wants ideas or wants to feel more confident in teaching their own students Latin; and those who want to become better thinkers. We will use the Lingua Latina series to guide our class discussions and homework. Classes will be over Zoom with Canvas as a class platform for materials.
