Language Courses
Are you fascinated by the ancient world, and would love to learn one of its languages so you can read amazing texts for yourself? This is the place to be! Each full course is broken down into three sections - Introduction, Intermediate, and Advanced. Introduction courses are exactly what they say - an introduction for the complete beginner. No prior knowledge of ancient languages? Not a problem. Intermediate classes build on everything taught in the Introduction, rounding out your knowledge of the grammar and writing system, while Advanced classes are a guided reading class where students work through a text with the help of the teacher.
