Basketmaker Amy Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 We haven't used the online class, but have really enjoyed (well, they have learned!) Latin with Latin in the Christian Trivium. Both sons have done well and earned ribbons and medals on the National Latin Exam. It doesn't cover Roman mythology, but you could easily add that in if you want. I have read good things about their online classes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah CB Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I think the Memoria Press online courses are great. However, let me just say: 12 year olds do not self-regulate. I thought I had a very mature, self-motivated 12 year old. I even had a time on the schedule for her to do her Latin. Both semesters (I thought I had learned from the first semester) she got very far behind and had to work almost non-stop in order to catch up in time. Ugh. It wasn't pretty.

Heather in Neverland Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 What about Scholars Online or The Potter's School? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
