Colleagues,
Due to a medical emergency for one of our colleagues, I am writing to ask if you know of anyone who might be able to take on a Latin 101 (MoWe 10:00AM - 11:15AM and Fr 10:00AM - 10:50AM) and Latin 201 (MoWe 8:30AM - 9:45AM) class on Zoom for the time that he is away.
We would be able to offer a stipend of $1500 for two weeks of class coverage, ideally starting Friday, 10/24, but later if need be. If the duration should be longer than two weeks, we could of course adjust this stipend.
Our colleague shares the following about his courses:
We are using the Oxford Latin Course, second edition.
In Latin 101, we are on Chapter 10 of Book I.
We are a bit behind in Latin 201. [...]I had to start at the beginning of Oxford Latin Course Book III in that class. We are now on Chapter 41 in that book.
Please let me know if you know of anyone who could take this on. We are, as I'm sure is evident, anxious to get someone in place as quickly as possible to minimize disruption for our students.
Thank you so much for considering,
Erin
