Title: Adults are not children
Product review: The Natural Approach has a lot to say for it. But it makes a fatal assumption: adults learn the same way as children.Fact: Adults already have a lifetime of experiences children do not have.Fact: Anybody learning a second or third language as an adult will initially associate the new language with those languages already known.When I used this method in a university class, the first thing all of the students did was to go out to the bookstores and buy grammar texts and a Latin-English dictionary.This is not a textbook that makes a good primary text. However, this book would be an excellent second book for a Latin language class.
