On Thursday, I will be closing the doors to my self-paced Latin GCSE Revision Course, and I wanted to give you a heads-up that when I open them again on October 20, the price will have moved from £97 from £250. Below is a preview of the topics covered. If you go to the page, you can preview a small section on learning adverbs using gestures. It is well worth a look! But this is just a snapshot: the new extended version will include additional content on vocabulary learning and plenty of tools for testing and consolidating. If you have any questions, please reply to this email, and I will get back to you—just as I do within the course! If you are already a member, there is nothing you need to do. New sections will appear that you can access straight away. And remember: as a course member, you get priority when asking for new sections or resources. Use it!

salve Reader! I am not going to beat about the bush: the time to start preparing for the 2027 exams is now. You know I love my food similes, so here we go: Imagine you want to have a lovely crusty loaf of bread for dinner tomorrow. You do not start making the bread just before dinner! The dough needs kneading, resting, shaping, resting again... and then baking AND (come on, finish it for me) ... RESTING. Same with exam preparation. It is not white sliced bread: it is sourdough. OK, maybe I am...
salve Reader! I recently shared a year-in-review carousel on Instagram, celebrating everything "2025–2006" has brought. This was not intended to be 2006 to 2025, but rather 2025 to 2026! Another time, I should write about what I did from 2006 onward, which truly was another life, but my recent post was meant for just 12 months, even though some people were impressed that I had done so much in 19 years! (offending post at the bottom) Typos aside, it has been an amazing year, and I think...
