Learning to Learn After 40

Veni Vidi Vici

Aryn and Andrea Season 1 Episode 3

"I came. I saw. I conquered" - Julius Caesar

Latin. A language that we never realized we needed in our life. There is so much goodness in this language as we are learning to understand it, read it, translate it and build our knowledge of the foundation of language through it.

Join us as we have a conversation and ask questions around why we should learn Latin and explore the many facets of this dead language and the truth, goodness and beauty found within.

For those that are interested in learning more we mentioned a few curriculums available (although there are many more than listed here):
- Henle Latin
