Dwane frequently receives emails from Visual Latin families with questions on how to teach Latin. Especially once families reach lessons 11+. Dwane offers this valuable Visual Latin Course Tip …

Pace Yourself!

The difficulty of Visual Latin will increase as you progress. I wish there were an easy way around it. Unfortunately, there isn’t. I’ve searched. Latin is going to get tough. That is why we tried to include lighthearted humor in the course. Latin has to be hard. It doesn’t have to be boring.

The beauty of a video course is that you can take as long as you like.

I don’t know how many times I have gone through the video series from SpanishDict.com. I will have to go through some of them again, I am sure. When I want to learn a new skill, I’ll watch videos and read books over and over again until I master the skill.

The only pressure will come when students enter high school and face the dreaded “requirements.” My Visual Latin Course Tip …. Middle school children are still young. Let them enter the tougher lessons at a slower pace.
