Open to 9th grade and up. This course begins the formal study of Biblical (Koine) Greek 1. It is a rigorous, college-prep level course designed for self-motivated students who are able to handle large amounts of memorization and attention to grammatical detail. We recommend that students have a solid grasp of English grammar (e.g. parts of speech, verb tenses, noun functions) before beginning the study of Biblical Greek. Students will learn the Greek alphabet, pronunciation, accents, syllabification, 1st through 3rd declensions, prepositions, adjectives, pronouns, and the present and future tense conjugations. They will also begin simple translation exercises from the NT. By the end of this course, students will have learned 226 vocabulary words, covering 73% of the words in the New Testament. Students will get individualized attention during class for word pronunciation and speaking proficiency.  Students should have their own microphone headset.
