Wheelock's Latin


[ High School and Self-Education Board ]

I had done some investigation on Latin before buying TWTM and was told that Wheelock's was *the* book for Latin.

Now I have TWTM and find that Wheelocks was, indeed, recommended in an earlier edition, but now it is not.

Can someone tell me why?

My son has never studied a language before, so I want to make sure his experience is as successful as possible. I've been holding off working with him on this until I can make sure we are starting in the right place -- I don't want him frustrated right out of the gate.

He is fourteen and I have him doing eighth grade work as an introduction to this way of learning. So far, he seem to really like it and look forward to working.

Thanks for any help!

Oh -- I guess I should mention that, while I studied Spanish in high school, I never studied Latin -- so it needs to work for both of us. :-)
