I have a great desire to learn the original languages of Scripture. I am further along with Hebrew than Greek. I want to study with somebody. Is there anyone who knows what I might do to start something? I was considering Skype. Anyone here want to start with me in Greek? I just don't know where to start or what really to do. I would like to get more of a classic Greek study for the church father's and septuagent vocabulary. This is what I have heard at least.
Do any local schools offer these as classes??
Not strictly related (i.e. not about study groups etc), but I've found the Daily Dose of Hebrew/Greek sites to be invaluable in my learning Hebrew with Futato's Beginning Biblical Hebrew, and intend to buy Black's Greek grammar to follow their videos for Greek once I've finished Hebrew and let it settle for a while.
I wish we had something locally that would allow me to sit in an actual classroom setting with others while they studied, but I'm not sure it would be affordable even if I could.
There are several books in logos. There is www.teknia.com. There are videos and workbooks. Several of the resources are available through Logos.

Philippians 2:3 Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.
You might want to take a look at Mike Heiser's language class page. This is not the "Learn Hebrew" or "Learn Greek" classes in Logos Mobile Ed. but, for what I can tell, are traditional language classes. I have never taken one of his courses so I don't know what they are like or the cost.

At teknia you can also sign up to take Greek 1 and 2 with Mounce.
Like any other language, start with memorizing the alphabet. The gospel of John is also a perfect place to begin NT Greek reading and exegesis.
