IN THIS COURSE

Familia Romana and more

This fully immersive Latin course will help you build a solid foundation in Latin using Hans Ørberg’s Familia Romana. In the second half of the course, you’ll also explore a variety of beginner-friendly texts. Guided readings from Familia Romana will be interwoven with interactive exercises. The latter part of the course will be even more engaging, incorporating different materials (the Assimil method, short stories, anecdotes, and comics) to reinforce vocabulary and review key grammatical structures.
