I would like to exhort those of you motivated to effectively teach Greek
consider this:

* children learn languages quicker than anyone
* language skills gained early can be augmented more easily later in life
* skills in Koine gained in childhood could make for mighty scholars years
later
* churches and schools are generally open and appreciative to learn these
skills
* it is not the Bible that says the Spanish and French are the important
languages!
* one doesn't have to be Carl to teach the basics to children

I'd love to see everyone on this list consider teaching a Koine class in
their Sunday Schools or home school groups.
