This course is for students who have sufficient knowledge of Latin to be ready to study Latin texts. In each lesson sentences for translation into Latin will be set as homework, which will be marked at the beginning of the next lesson. We will then spend time reading and discussing the texts. Each lesson we will also spend up to 15 minutes looking at some aspect of Roman history or culture, either from a document or a film.

LANGUAGE CLASS TRANSFER POLICY

If you are a new WEA Student and enrol into a language class and subsequently find that you are at the wrong level (whether too high or too low), you are permitted to transfer into another more suitable class at no additional cost, provided that the request is made within the first two classes and is in writing from your tutor directly to the Education Manager. After that point, an administration fee of $30 will apply.
