Excerpt from Praeceptor: A Master's Book
It has struck me, since writing Chapter II, that I have not emphasized sufficiently how important it is that the teacher shall, at every stage, know and keep in mind the exact amount of knowledge possessed by the pupils both in vocabulary and in Grammar; this is absolutely necessary, for otherwise he will continually be talking over their heads.
I have to acknowledge my obligations to Mr. W. L. Paine and Mr. C. L. Mainwaring for supplying the materials for Chapters III and V, and Appendix II; and to the same gentlemen and Dr. Rouse for useful criticism on many points.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a fresh perspective on the foundational principles of teaching Latin, drawing on a wealth of experience in modern pedagogy, and particularly the Direct Method, to posit a highly effective approach with demonstrable success in the teaching of Latin. The author puts forth a compelling argument for prioritizing the spoken word as the gateway to language learning, grounding the Direct Method in sound reasoning about how languages are acquired naturally. This perspective encourages fluency and comprehension and emphasizes hands-on engagement with the material to build intuition and internalize knowledge. Beyond methodology, the book explores the place of grammar and translation within the Direct Method, providing practical approaches for integrating these elements while maintaining the Direct Method's core principles. The author's insights on language as a living, dynamic force are not merely relevant to Latin but offer valuable perspectives for any language educator. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
