Excellent!  I remember hearing a few years ago about a woman 95 years of age who 
started and completed the Moody Correspondence course in NT Greek.  I don't know 
if she made it, but after completing Greek she signed up for Hebrew!

I suspect a number of people have such informal classes in churches and other 
settings.  Maybe some of you could share what you feel are the best resources 
for teaching Greek in that type of context.
