I wanted to express my thanks. Greek was a very difficult language for me, perhaps because it had been decades since I had learned another language. But your textbook, workbook, DVD, vocabulary cards and laminated card made it so much easier for me. I'm so glad my professor used your textbook. Looking at the textbooks used by other seminaries, I doubt I would have even passed let alone obtained all A's. Thank you and God bless you! —Michael
