    2nd-day student/teacher/homeschooling MP Latin teacher here and I can't believe I'm actually doing it! I can already see how this is going to be great! I love the scripted lessons. I watched some of Tanya's other videos and her enunciation of "mastery is key" is ringing in my ears, and so we will!

    I’ve worked as a teacher in several different types of schools - International Schools, Language Schools, Christian Schools, etc. And I’ve always been asked to teach subjects I had to learn as I taught them. Only when I worked in public school was it expected that I stay in my lane and only teach the subject I was hired to teach. I think a good teacher should be able to teach anything. Even if that means learning as they teach.

    I would love to hear more about people who did not have a formal education but still went on to do great things and what we can learn from them. That is encouraging and inspiring.

    When a youngster my father, god bless him,thought reading was a waste of my time and physical work was paramount ,in his mind and for me certainly, The book you mentioned, Beowulf , happened to be laying on the firesurround in my bedroom and was to be opened and tried many times but never seriously engaged my mother knew ,somehow , that I had the worm inside me and it would not rest until drastic action was taken and me to the town library where I had the great fortune to be introduced to Richmal Crompton
    Classics were not for me until too late to rub the best of greek and latin psychology and other attributes of a gentleman
    into me ,William Brown and his like Ginger and the screamer Violet Elizabeth were read of until at last I outgrew them all
    now in my eighties I am old enough to appreciate opera and all things that you talk of ,I very much like listening to Professor
    Victor Davis Hanson who I admire very much and is the product of hard physical work and a classical education an American
    who should be emulated by all

    We love MP Latin. I was nervous about teaching it for the first time but it’s my second grader’s favorite subject.

    Elizabeth Gaskell is an amazing author…love her Wives and Daughters. I have loved every book of hers I have read.
    Another great episode…needed that reinforcement.

    When my 9 year old mentions that she does Latin people look at her like she has two heads. 😂

    What if your family already speaks 3 languages, is it necessary to learn Latin as well?

      Which languages? Would you like them to have Latin study in their education?

      I'm Brazilian. Portuguese is a Roman language, do you think is easier learn Latin than a English native speaker?

      ​@@Tiago198441i think, at least with the way MP set up their curriculum, that Latin helps English speakers understand English better! I can't speak for Portuguese, but perhaps it would be familiar.

      To my understanding, Latin is the core aspect of classical education in general no matter what you speak. And with MP, the use Latin as their primary language Grammer study, in which Latin teaches English Grammer better than English teaches English Grammer. There are other reasons for studying Latin as I'm learning. So if you want to educate your kids classically, Latin study is not an option.
