My name is Lucas. I am from Argentina, Rosario. Currently I am teaching Latin and some Ancient Greek.
Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching Latin for two years online, mostly by the Natural Method. The lessons are really practical (the students read, hear Latin and speak, write in Latin.) and tend to gravitate around the main goal: acquire fluency in Latin to read the great classics.
I have taught people from every part of the world and of very different ages. The experience has been positive.
I often upload content speaking in Latin/Greek pertinent to Latin/Greek literature to YouTube (either for creating content for students or just because I want to speak about my favorite authors); you may check here: https://www.youtube.com/@lucasantognini
My lessons & teaching style
If you don't find a convenient slot of time, send a message!
In classes, we read a Latin textbook and generate a conversation around that. I ask a lot of questions to check comprehension and improve the student's ability to speak and hear. In case there is any doubt, I explain the text mostly in Latin; otherwise in English. I also make comments about some pertinent historical facts about the text or related topics.
Since I believe that is quite important to practice a language to master it, I give homework which includes exercises and writing summaries.
Keep in mind: a lesson must be cancel before 24 hours. Otherwise, in general, the lesson will be charge.

I have been taking Latin lessons with Lucas for about 8 months, working though a textbook (Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata) at a steady pace. From our very first lesson, he put together a plan for me and got me on track to learn. I can definitely say that he is caring and attentive teacher; he always explains concepts in detail and gives clear examples. He provides good feedback and leaves me with some material for review. If you are looking to improve your Latin abilities, I would highly recommend Lucas!

Optimum magistrum linguae latinae eum esse puto. In schora latine colloquens, discere possum ut linguam vivam. Gratias ei ago.

I'm really enjoying and learning so much by discussing different philosophical topics in Latin with Lucas. Today he shared with me some ideas from formal logic. Lucas has helped me learn more Latin, as well as more philosophy! Thank you a million.

Lucas and I can get on the most random and crazy of topics and talk at length about them in Latin. In my core, Latin is a living, breathing language thanks to Lucas's brilliant way of teaching and interacting with me as a student. He's a great person to learn from!
