lol. Who wants to tutor me? :lol: First lesson and I'm already having a hard time. Only two more years to go :P The hardest thing so far is reading Aristotles Nicomachean Ethics. Something about Happiness being the Chief Good is all I can tell you.

I took ancient Greek for 2 years...let me tell you...it was hard.

I probably didn't put as much effort into it as I should have so that made it even more difficult.

It can be pretty enjoyable, but make sure you really take time to learn the basics. If you never get those down solid you'll have a real hard time advancing.

If you are interested in learning Greek on the side I suggest "Learn New Testament Greek" by John Dobson. It's a Protestant book, but it's pretty good.
