  • Beginner Latin I (L101)

    Whether you are interested in Classical or Ecclesiastical Latin writers, the first steps are the same. In this course you will be introduced to the core of Latin grammar and vocabulary – we will also read over one hundred pages of Latin along the way! If you want to learn how to read Latin as a language, as opposed to a clunky form of English in need of decoding, this course is for you!

  • Beginner Latin II (L102)

    In this course you will continue the grammatical and vocabulary work you began in Latin 101. You will continue reading Lingua Latina: Familia Romana and Colloquia Personarum, and you will also continue to work through our digital interactive textbook. You will continue to read, speak, and understand Latin as its own language – rather than as a code that needs translating into English first.

  • Intermediate Latin I (L201)

    Are you ready to super-charge your Latin reading and speaking abilities? In the Intermediate sequence, we will finish reading Lingua Latina: Familia Romana. Then, we’ll plunge into the last section of Genesis: “the epic of Joseph.” This is the story of Jacob’s son, Joseph, who is sold into slavery in Egypt and eventually rises to power in the court of the Pharaoh.

  • Intermediate Latin II (L202)

    Now that you have been introduced to the Latin grammar system, it is time to enjoy Roman history as told by the great Roman historian, Livy. From Rome's rough and humble origins with Romulus and Remus, to the expulsion of Tarquin the proud, students will experience Livy's text in a way that will prepare them to continue engaging with more challenging primary sources.

  • Advanced Latin I: Ovidii Metamorphoses (L301)

    Ovid, was one of the greatest poets writing during the Golden Age of Roman poetry. In the Metamorphoses, Ovid narrates, in dactylic hexameter, the history of the world from its creation to the apotheosis of Julius Caesar, all through various mythological stories of transformation. In this course, we will be reading a few of these stories and discussing them in Latin.

  • Advanced Latin II: Plauti Miles Gloriosus (L302)

    What did the Latin of ordinary Romans sound like? One of our best clues is the dialogue between slaves, soldiers, prostitutes, and commoners found in Roman comedy. In this course, we will be reading the entirety of Miles Gloriosus, Plautus' comedy about a braggart soldier who nearly thwarts the affair between two young lovers.

Looking for ALI’s Latin for Kids programs? 

We run three separate Latin tracks for younger students: for elementarymiddle, and high school students. Perfect for homeschool families, “flex” classical schools, and anyone looking for tutoring or enrichment for their young student.

Do you plan on teaching Latin? Whether you are a teacher about to start teaching Latin this fall, a curious homeschool parent, or a headmaster interested in using a living language methodology at your school, this is the course for you. 

We are going to get you reading, listening to, and speaking in Latin over the course of five weeks of intense study.

Of all the challenges of a seminary Ph.D. program, the language competency exam made me the most apprehensive. I told Jonathan about my concerns and described what I thought I needed, individual tutoring adapted to my pace and lots of opportunities to ask questions. He designed a study course structure to meet my needs and talked me through each step of the learning process. I highly recommend his tutoring. Oh, and I passed my Latin competency exam! Thanks, Jonathan!
