About eTeacher Biblical: The eTeacherBiblical.com program includes weekly, live, online “meetings” in small groups of 7-8 students, and homework assignments that are sent by the teacher after each lesson.

In the process, students gain a comprehensive understanding of the language, including grammar, syntax and vocabulary.
