Course Description: We will meet four nights a week (an hour per session), doing drills and exercises to start thinking in Latin. The aim is to help students with a basic knowledge of Latin grammar to build confidence, preparing them for courses that require reading proficiency or conversation. Exercises will include: drills (conjugating verbs and declining nouns, adjectives, and pronouns); translating English sentences into Latin; and other exercises based on the readings in Latin Via Ovid (2nd edition). We will work through the exercises systematically, at a pace conducive to the internalization of the material, striving for fluent thought and expression.
