Customer Reviews

Cambridge

This was a great use. Still using it and plan on to continue to use it. Great buy for Latin learners.

Excellent. A classical program that works.

I bought this program for my 12 yr-old daughter, as a supplement to Henle latin. She had been studying Henle for a year, mostly on her own, and was getting bogged down in the monotony of exercise after exercise. Cambridge, with it's fun story-line and historical component, is a nice suppelement, and has gotten her interested in her Latin studies again. Sometimes, a different approach to the same material is just the ticket for better retention. Cambridge has done that for us.

Great for Students

This textbook is awesome for serious students who would really like to graspe latin better. It contains the answer key to all the exercises as well as tips for teachers on presenting the material. If you own the student edition, consider the teacher's guide to help you along your way!

A teacher's teacher!

As a Latin tutor with over three years experience with teaching this language, and several years of learning it, this text was a surprise. Not only did it offer me better ways to use the Cambridge readers with my pupils, it also provided me with new information that I found interesting for myself. This manual combines grammar with the easy learning tool of an ongoing storyline, as well as providing application skills and ideas, with some baitable history as well. It helps me not only teach my students better but keep them wanting to learn. Anyone looking forward to teaching, or even learning, this language, should most certainly have this book close at hand.
