I've seen quite a few courses for Quenya and Sindarin, but not for Old English. However, I've just stumbled across this, which, although not complete, is set out very well, and is an excellent resource.

There's also an excellent Ardalambion explaination of Rohirric and other 'Mannish tongues' as well, at

http://www.uib.no/People/hnohf/mannish.htm

so far, these are the only two courses I've found. If you know any other sites that give Rohirric courses, post them up here.

Wow, it would be great to learn Rohirric! I'll have to check out those courses. In the meantime, here's a cool translator that I found one day when I was really bored:

I've added a new section of the Reliable Elvish Sites thread having to do with OE. I posted a few links in there as well. Go check them out!
