I've read a lot of info. on the forum about different Latin programs, but it's all a little fuzzy now, and I have to make a decision soon. This is my situation: My dd (now 9th grade) started Cambridge Latin I last year with a tutor who is an expert in Latin but because of personality differences, teaching style.. who knows why, she did not enjoy it and is dreading going back for Latin II. She felt it was rushed and she still doesn't understand some of the basics. She would like to try another program and do it ourselves at home.
One of her complaints was that in translating, there was no way to detect what the Latin root word was... so she didn't know if the word shown was already in a certain declension or verb form, or just showing the root. She did learn all the forms/tenses. I don't know Latin so maybe I'm not describing this correctly. Anyway, she was very frustrated and her teacher would simply say, well you just have to figure it out, learn them all, etc..
Can you recommend a Latin curriculum and level, since she did go through Cambridge Latin I but didn't grasp it... should I start over with another curriculum from the beginning?
Any advice is appreciated... sorry for rambling on.
