Questions about learning latin from a beginner

If you are an independent learner, then I would recommend you a Reading method:

You can also take a look at similar courses (both are of Spanish origin):

This method is based on graded texts, from very simple and frequent lexicon to advanced. Ørberg’s course is the most popular (and the oldest one), and completing both its parts you will be able to read the authentic Roman literature (from my experience). In recent years, a great amount of supplementary materials were produced to practice the vocabulary, so even on the beginning level you can always find what to read besides the textbook.

When I start learning a new language, I usually take 5-10 classes with a live teacher to practice pronunciation. So I recommend you.
