The Malta Classics Association (MCA) is once again organising the Lingua Latina Ab Initio (LLAI) series of exam-track courses in Latin. These courses are intended to equip students with familiarity with Latin grammar and syntax structures and to therefore allow them to make greater independent use of the wealth of medieval and early modern documents throughout our archives as well as Classical Latin sources more generally.

Each of the below courses will follow up on the other. All lessons will be held on Wednesdays between 7:30pm and 9pm, and online. All sessions will be recorded. Please note that the ELEX Vestibulum following the third course can only be sat for in person. Kindly check the below linked provisions schedule and syllabus, and course fees. Prospective students may register also as MCA members when applying for the course to benefit from MCA member discounts.
