I know I could do it at home, but I also know the value of a great teacher, like-minded peers, and strict schedule!

Deb H This makes me so excited to think we may be in class together! I'm sitting at 95% commitment. I need to get over the last 5%. This class means shelving my other academic pursuits for the duration, likely. I did that in 2020 to accomplish something specific; it took all year and it felt great. I know from experience that giving my all to something and conquering it by this time next year is a worthy investment. I think I'm up to 96% now. Ha!
Truly the only thing for me still under consideration is the time-slot. I need to make sure I can give up those mid-afternoons in a really ongoing way. Being only 1.5 hours helps.Festina lentē,

I'm glad I stumbled upon this post. I *think* we've decided to do Third Form at home this year with help from the steaming videos rather than enroll my rising seventh-grader in MPOA. It would be his first MPOA course and he is concerned about the pace. We have had to take two weeks on some lessons this year for SFL.
That being said, I would love to take the adult TFL summer course...if I can keep up with it. I wouldn't say that I've mastered SFL. Would that be a prerequisite to the class?
Also, the listing for TFL shows it being offered in two parts, with the second part in the fall. Since I'm on mountain time, I doubt that I could take a class that (for me) meets at 1 p.m. Is the second part of the class teaching the second part of the textbook? Would it be worth just taking the summer course?DS, 11 (MP 7M)

The second part of the course is teaching the second part of the textbook. Just taking the summer course would get you at least the first half under your belt.
As for having mastery of Second Form, we only say that "You should have a working knowledge of the vocabulary and grammar from First Form Latin and Second Form Latin." If you have that, you should be all set.
Peace,

I just finished the adult Second Form class in January. Susan's advice was to work though the SFL Student workbook a second time before starting Third From. In her words, "TF will kick you in the teeth if you haven't mastered SF." This is not to discourage you! I would just recommend you brush up on grammar and vocabulary before TF starts. Susan hasn't released a syllabus yet but I'm assuming the format will be similar to the First Form intensive class that frequently did more than one lesson per class time, some weeks we covered 3 lessons and we always skipped the review lessons. It was a similar format in the Second Form intensive. The fall TFL class will reduce to just Tuesdays at 3:00 EST. I'm on central time and it was a commitment to pause my school day with my kids so I could take a class, but it was worth the sacrifice. My daughter is in TFL this year and with only SF "nearly" under my belt I've been able to help her a bit with sentence translations. It was shocking to me that my SF experience helped me to do this!Dorinda
