Ted:
I am teaching an online first year Greek course using Machen's book. We
are have way through the book now, the class having just taken its
mid-term and in a 3 week Christmas break. We started with 175 in
September, 10 of which were assistants. After 5 tests we are down to 17
who have taken all tests and are doing well. It has gone surprisingly
well. We have audio files for pronunciation, the students read and study
each chapter on their own, ask questions as needed, do the problems at
the end of the chapter, etc.
We are planning on hitting the Greek text for tranlation purposes in
January. Feel free to join us. See my signature file below for further
information. You also should check Jonathan's site. We have a money
back guarantee, though. If you are not totally satisfied, your money
will be happily returned. The course is free.
Dr. Paul S. Dixon, Pastor
Wilsonville, Oregon
