2025 Workshop Talk | 1:06 | Leadership & Strategic, Curriculum Overviews, Latin, Greek & Language

Summary


Latin is a core subject for a classical Christian education. When done well, it plays a significant role in creating joyfully literate students and careful thinkers who are well-equipped to become powerful leaders. But when done poorly, it becomes a stumbling block for students, parents, and teachers alike. In this workshop, administrators and head teachers will learn how to design or redesign their Latin programs to be fruitful and bring their students both skill and joy. It will cover 1) curriculum, 2) methodology, and 3) teacher development.

Speaker


Tim Griffith is a Senior Fellow of Classical Languages at New Saint Andrews College, chairman of the Institute for Classical Languages, and director of the Universal Latin Exam. He has spent the last 17 years improving methods for teaching ancient languages in a modern context. Most recently he has developed Picta Dicta (www.pictadicta.com), an online learning platform specifically designed to assist parents and teachers with teaching ancient languages.
