Cambridge Latin

Elementary • Middle

Our Cambridge Latin Program provides an enjoyable and carefully paced introduction to the Latin language, complemented by background information on Roman culture and civilization. Our materials progress from simple stories adapted from original texts to the original texts themselves. The readings are accompanied by explanations of key language points and are supported by grammar practice exercises. The main emphasis, however, is on learning how to read Latin, not on being drilled repetitively on the finer points of grammar, making Cambridge Latin an ideal program for upper elementary school students.

Oxford Latin

Our most popular program, Oxford Latin combines the best features of both modern and traditional methods, a balance of both the inductive and deductive approaches to learning Latin. In other words, it provides an exciting introduction to Latin based on the reading of narrative passages and original texts by Roman authors, while an equal emphasis is placed on a clear presentation of grammar with a great number and variety of exercises. Our materials flow at a quicker pace, a wider variety of complex sentence structures is introduced earlier and at greater length, and the grammatical patterns to reinforce retention are repeated less than other reading-based Latin programs, making Oxford Latin suitable for those middle and high school students eager to learn more quickly and get ahead.
