Yes, she really does love Latin.

In fact, she says it is her favorite subject. She enjoys speaking Latin phrases around the house and showing her dad the various English words that derive from Latin. She might be our most recent Latin student, but we have been inspiring students like her for quite a while.

Yes, you really can teach Latin. We will teach with and for you

We know that most parents and teachers have not studied Latin before. That is why we designed our Latin curricula with the teacher included. Video instruction and student-level grammatical explanations are built in to every aspect of the curriculum.

Why Latin?

Latin is the DNA of western civilization. It is in the roots of all aspects of our culture from the professions (like law and medicine), the Romance languages (like Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese) and science (all animals and plants have Latin names).

Just what you need

All You Need

While all you really need is the robust student edition, teacher's edition and streaming video instruction, we also provide you with readers, activity books, colored vocabulary cards, and online digital resources (like Latin FlashDash and animated videos in Latin). And if you ever have questions about Latin you can post your question on our Ask the Magister page and get a quick answer!

For every child in grades 2-12

For Every Age

We love Latin and have developed engaging Latin curricula for every student level beginning in 2nd grade leading through to 12th grade. Each series (Song School Latin, Latin for Children, Latin Alive) is pedagogically aligned with the student's age, level, and previous study.

A good curriculum is a beautiful curriculum

And Beautiful

It is not enough that our Latin curriculum be good. It should be beautiful. All of our Latin texts are carefully designed in full color to highlight the the beauty of Latin and delight the student. Download samples of each text and have a look for yourself and show it to your student!
