Abstract: 
This article describes a hybrid approach to Ancient Greek that combines online tutorial exercises with fl exible face-to-face meetings and as- sessment within the Blackboard Course Management System. The goal of this system is to enable the Classics program at the University of Missouri-Kansas City to offer its three-course beginning Greek sequence concurrently so that students begin in any semester, work independently online while receiving any necessary help in a tutorial environment from the professor or a peer tutor, and continue their Greek studies at any time during their academic career without being constrained by a rigid three-semester rotation.
