Things have changed in the world of Latin since I started to teach myself to speak Latin many years ago.

Now there is a wide selection of summer immersion-style summer courses in Latin (and a few in ancient Greek) where the participants only speak Latin or Greek during the course.

Though I never attended one while learning Latin, I have been teaching at two the last few years, the Rusticatio in Virginia and the Conventiculum Bostoniense in Boston and I have seen the impact that being immersed in Latin for an extended period of time can have for beginners as well as more advanced students of Latin. After spending a week or more living in Latin, the language comes alive and that language that may have seemed so alien and abstract becomes something quite tangible and present.

Since there is a great variety of Latin programs available, I have tried to gather every single one below for easy reference. Bear in mind that I only have experience with two of them, so I cannot vouch for the quality. Click the name of the programs to access the accompanying website and learn more about them.
