Yulia helped me work on Lingua Latina per se illustrata, Chapter 9. We did the exercises, read more material, and then she asked questions in Latin about what we read, and I responded in Latin. Probably the best way to learn Latin.

We did lesson 10 in LLPSI and some additional exercises, and the instructor recommended the Colloquia Personarum book. I'm glad the instructor is speaking in Latin, it's helping me to pick up the habit of speaking also.
