Our Thoughts:
I had not planned on adding Greek to our studies, but I quickly changed my mind once we started watching It’s Not Greek to Me with Todd Friel. Todd’s zany personality paired with his fun teaching style leads to an entertaining way to start to learn the basics of Greek.
Todd immediately grabbed our attention and kept us laughing with his quirky sense of humor. He certainly is not your normal, dry Greek professor. His rendition of the ABC song featuring the Greek alphabet was quite amusing. While you won’t be getting into the nitty gritty of Greek, you will be able to read the Greek New Testament once you are done with the course.
I highly recommend adding in the Intro to Biblical Greek PLP (Parent Lesson Plan) from New Leaf Publishing to get the most from the dvd. The lessons, quizzes, and tests allow you to dig deeper into the information presented on the dvd. In other words, you’ll be practicing what is being taught on the dvd. We found that this was a necessary part to really understanding and digesting what was being taught by Todd.
If you’re looking for a fun way to start learning Greek, I recommend trying out It’s Not Greek to Me with Todd Friel. Want to hear what others thought of the program? Head over to read the other Moms of Master Books reviews.
