For the last couple of days, I have been working from sunny Hispania - that's Spain for those still working on their Roman geography! Between lessons, mosquito dodging, and some Roman sightseeing, I have also been busy planning for the year ahead. And I have some big news: I am revamping my Latin Grammar Revision for GCSE course. I have improved my recording set-up and will create new versions of existing videos, as well as new explanations and activities. If you are already a member, you will get direct access to the new course so you can continue enjoying the benefits. The new course will launch in October, and the new price will be £250. If think this course is for you, you have 4 weeks left to access it at the current £97 price. This is what you will get:
If you are unsure about what to do starting in September, just reply to this email or request a complimentary assessment. I still have 2 spaces left in my GCSE Revision group class, which meets on Fridays at 7:15. I am also in the process of organising Greek courses both from scratch and for ICCG preparation. I cap all my courses at 5 participants, so spaces are very limited. Make sure you book early to avoid disappointment! And remember: I may be in Spain, but I am just a click away!

Yes, there will be diving and ancient ruins, so here is a heads-up that I may take a bit longer to reply to emails. This has been quite the week for me. One of the highlights was observing an almost total eclipse with my children and experimenting with the...
salve Reader! If you have been following me for a while, I am sure you have noticed that I discourage my students from learning vocabulary through apps like Quizlet. I promote keeping a written record, reading extensively and using the words in new contexts. Still, I am aware that some students just love the app format. So, after much insistence from students on having a vocabulary list or suggesting an app that works, I have opted for a middle path: an app that has words unlikely to not be...
salve Reader! Do you know the Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí? He is the genius behind the Sagrada Família in Barcelona. He believed that love came before any technical considerations, and looking at his ground-breaking architecture, I think we can all agree that his approach worked. This love-first approach is key to language learning. If there is no interest in reading a text to enjoy a story, it is very difficult to find the motivation to look at the grammar holding it together. The...
