Hello Everyone,
I'm Tara, and I used to learn Latin, sadly I stopped having not had the greatest teacher , but still like to promote the subject/language.
Hopefully you guys can make me more enthusiastic and start to enjoy the subject.
And a quick question, how many people are interested in learn/want to learn Latin? Just out of curiosity...

Salve!
I also had a dreadful Latin professor in college. She would actually insult the students who couldn't get the concepts; fortunately I did well, but not without many rollings of eyes and sarcastic comments (this is why tenure isn't always a good thing!). Thankfully I found a wonderful textbook recommended to me by others here at Textkit a few years ago, called LINGVA LATINA — I talk about it in the recent introduction by Jennifer:

Good luck to you! The people here are incredibly thoughtful with their comments and generous with their time; they have assisted me greatly through the years.
