Though Latin is considered a "dead" language, it is still used often, especially in the legal, scientific, and medical professions, along with many others. Latin roots are also used often as a major source of new terms in science and technology. Latin is the base for many other Romance languages, such as Spanish and French, so learning this language can help you to pick up other Romance languages with more ease. While this language is no longer the spoken language of central Italy, it is still the official language of Vatican City and the Roman Catholic Church.

Whether you are looking for help with the basics in your first Latin language course at Garfield High School or you are in need of more advanced language skills for an undergraduate program at Seattle Pacific University, we can help you find the right course for your needs. Varsity Tutors has two options for language learning: virtual group courses and working with a Seattle Latin tutor. Each lesson option has its own unique set of benefits, and you may find that a combination of both is the best fit for your goals. You can be sure that no matter which option you choose, you will be taught by an experienced and patient instructor.

What different language skills could Seattle Latin lessons help me to better understand?

有足够的实践是每一个机会haps the most beneficial step to take in language learning. Seattle Latin lessons give you the ability to work on your Latin speaking, writing, and reading under the guidance of a highly qualified instructor. Regular exposure to the language will help you build your retention of skills like vocabulary and pronunciation. As Latin is a "dead" language, you do not have the challenge of perfecting any accent. However, you will need to work on the correct pronunciation of the language, as consistency will allow you to pick up the vocabulary more quickly, read more fluently, and appreciate the rhythm and sounds.

Although many English words originate from Latin, there will still be a lot of vocabulary to memorize. Inflections, or the endings of words, are another challenge while learning this language. This concept is very important, as the end of the words are vital to understanding the meaning of a sentence. There are also gendered nouns. Latin uses a third gender, which is neuter, in addition to the typical masculine and feminine nouns. The unique rules concerning adjectives and verbs are other things you will want to get a good grasp on.

How do Seattle Latin lessons work?

It can be difficult to make time for the effort it takes to learn a second language, especially if you are already balancing a full-time school or work schedule, family time, and extracurricular activities. That is why we make it easy to fit Seattle Latin lessons into any schedule. Whether you are looking to fit a session into your evenings, weekends, or even on your lunch hour, we can get you set up with the right option for you. Let's take a closer look at the two options for lessons.

If you are looking for a well-rounded overview of Latin, the online group courses may be a good option for you. In these collaborative courses, you will meet your instructor and other students in an interactive, virtual classroom, which eliminates the need to fit an extra commute into your busy day. You will have the ability to join in conversational practice and work on group activities, all while getting helpful feedback from an experienced Latin instructor. If you find yourself needing more in-depth discussions on any particularly difficult concepts, you can reserve additional one-on-one time with your instructor.

If you would prefer a more personalized study session, working with a private instructor could be the right option for you. Working with a Seattle Latin tutor can give you individualized attention that focuses on your goals alone. For example, perhaps you find yourself needing more time to work through the inflections or gendered nouns. Private sessions give you the opportunity to take the time that you need for these concepts without having to worry about a set curriculum or other students. Your instructor could also learn your strengths and challenges and build a custom study session that has your learning style in mind. You can choose to meet your Seattle Latin tutor online or in person. If you choose the convenience of the online sessions, you will meet your instructor on our Live Learning Platform. From there, you will use video chat and a virtual whiteboard for your language learning. You can also arrange to meet in person, perhaps at your home, a nearby library, or any other favorite study spot.
