SALVI and Indwelling Language have teamed up to offer the perfect solution:

Latinitas x2, aka Latinitas Duplicata

How it works

  1. You arrange and participate in a one-on-one Latin conversation with Justin "Iustus" Slocum Bailey using the online platform of your choice (Skype, Google+ Hangouts, FaceTime, Clickmeeting, etc.).
  2. Out of the fee--$30 for half an hour or $50 for a full hour--you can designate up to 50% to be used toward tuition at any SALVI immersion event in the succeeding 365 days. Assuming you attend a SALVI immersion event, this means you get one-on-one instruction for only $15 or $25.
  3. If the money designated for tuition goes unused for 365 days, it will become a tax-deductible donation to SALVI in your name. You'll still have received low-cost instruction and you'll have done a good deed!

You are welcome to complete multiple sessions. If you have already registered for Rusticatio Tironum 2015 or Rusticatio Veteranorum 2015, you may enroll in up to three sessions of Latinitas x2 retroactively.

What to expect in your session

How to enroll
Submit the form at the bottom of Indwelling Language's Latinitas x2 homepage or send an email to iustus@latin.org stating your intention to participate. Justin will follow up to find out more about your goals and interests and to schedule the session. You may use the same form or email address to submit any questions you have about Latinitas x2.

Justin is an extremely talented linguist and communicator. He speaks Latin in a way that is expressive and authentic, full of idiom and careful, deliberate word choice. He also speaks in a way that is inviting to those around him, using his humor, his kindness, and his intuition to engage people in conversations whose purpose is not just to practice a foreign language but also to connect as people.

Justin Slocum Bailey is the ultimate educator. He brings to every one of his pursuits extensive knowledge, curiosity about both language and people, a sense of humor, and an extraordinary ability to connect. As I strive to improve my own teaching, I try to channel what I have seen in him. He is thorough, clear, exciting, talented, interesting, and fun.
