Why attend this practicum?

The ICL Latin Practicum is designed to help teachers at every level teach Latin with greater success. Participants are divided into tables based on interest and skill (from absolutely zero to advanced), so every participant can learn at their own skill level in a small group. Everyone will learn techniques useful for getting students to produce and understand Latin from experienced teachers. There will be tables that focus on the following: the basics, composition, advanced composition, and advanced composition/ conversation.
