4 months other sources > this is my way

I spent about 4 months cramming 2 hours each day with vocab, verb conjugation and even a private tutor online. But I wasn't SPEAKING ITALIAN yet. This Pimsleur Italian One course completed and I can now speak basic (VERY BASIC) phrases to get myself understood. I'm moving on to Level two now. I had bought level 2 initially because I had 4 months under my belt of hardcore studying (1k vocab words and basic grammar and verb understanding). I immediately went back and bought level 1 and started at the very beginning. I did not find it slow or frustrating. I learned critical basic phraseology I never gained in other learning modes. I truly enjoyed this course and the topics and building blocks.

Best way to learn a new language!

This program lets you learn one short conversation at a time and it teaches you connective words to help you make your own sentences. I do the lessons every day for 30 min (I repeat each one twice because it helps me retain it better) and u feel I'm doing very well with my Italian!

Soon it becomes easy. Do each lesson over and over

Loved it. gets easier and easier... then harder and harder and you think you'll never get it. Then it clicks in again. And you've learned something else. Before long you will start thinking of the Italian word for the objects in your life. But you really need a speaker to practice with.

Don't buy this from audible-- missing materials

This audiobook requires a booklet that is not provided with your purchase. Without this booklet, lessons are useless as the narrator reads and you're supposed to follow along. Translations are not provided for the listener.
