WTMCassandra Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I'm still quaking in my boots about starting Henle soon (we are on LC2 Chapter 14 right now). If I bomb on Henle, would LitCT be a good alternative? Has anyone used it? I have heard of it but not seen it IRL. Thanks for any words of wisdom you might have.

TracyR Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 We aren't close to Henle yet. But am considering Latin Alive by the makers of Latin for Children. http://www.classicalacademicpress.com/latinalive.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhondabee Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Just a word of encouragement.... We'll be starting Henle in a few weeks, after completing LCII last year. I've only gone through the first six weeks of lessons (using the MODG syllabus), but I think you'll be *so* pleasantly surprised when you actually start reading through the Henle for yourself. You'll know the vocabulary and the concepts for the first part of the book. I was really, really worried (having never had Latin myself), but it really looks like LC 1 and 2 were great preparation. Hopefully, someone else will chime in! Rhonda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine State Sue Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 With Henle, if you feel you are not up to it and you have the money, there are at least 2 online options that I know of: Regina Coeli and Memoria Press. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanie Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I was apprehensive about starting Henle, but I shouldn't have worried. LC 1 and 2 prepared me very well; in fact, I almost wish I had skipped them and started directly with Henle! The good thing about Henle is that even when I have trouble with something, there are so many exercises (opportunities to practice ;)) that it never gives me trouble for long. So be encouraged! I bet you'll do just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget that there's a Henle list on Yahoo: 'http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HenleLatin/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
