Wheelock’s Latin : Chapters 1-15 Lectures

There you will find advice on some of the more complex grammar concepts – English and Latin – which are often an insurmountable obstacle to progress in Latin for modern students. Conferences will not replace Wheelock text. They will only hopefully make your ramp more fluid. To this end, the lectures follow exactly the chapters of the manual. This will give you “contextual” help when you need it.

Latin I , First Quarter
This course covers the very first step in learning the Latin language. It explains the declension of nouns (from 1st to 5th) and explains the basic functions of the five Latin cases (nominative, genitive, dative, accusative and ablative). It covers basic sentence structure, syntax and grammar. It explores subject verb chords, noun genres, and the conjugation of the linking verb ESSE (to be).
The course requires students to have access to the Henle Latin First Year (paperback or digital book) as well as the grammar reference book (paperback or digital book). Acquiring “Looking at Latin” may be helpful but not necessary.
This first trimester should last approximately ten (10) weeks. The work includes the study of lectures (videos), memorization work (vocabulary, declension, conjugation and grammar rules) and written work (exercises).
After completing this course, the logical step is to register for Latin I, Second Quarter. Note that Henle, Latin First Year is covered in Latin I and Latin II. Latin II is already available and Latin III too.
