5.0 out of 5 stars Best language series out there
I've studied a lot of languages on my own and have struggled with finding material for language self-study. THIS is by far the best material for studying Italian - interesting, fun, interactive, the perfect speed for pronunciation, and despite being Berlitz uses sound methodology - communicative method of teaching. I have tried Teach Yourself series(awful, speak too...

2.0 out of 5 stars Awkward and Hard to Use
I was hoping for a cheap version of Rosetta Stone, but this is just an update of the old "hear me pronounce the word" cassette tape systems available for years. I finally gave up and will go to Italy with my phrase book. Anybody want to buy my lightly used copy of this, contact me! ;-)

I've studied a lot of languages on my own and have struggled with finding material for language self-study. THIS is by far the best material for studying Italian - interesting, fun, interactive, the perfect speed for pronunciation, and despite being Berlitz uses sound methodology - communicative method of teaching. I have tried Teach Yourself series(awful, speak too fast) and Italian Now (yawn!). Don't waste your money on anything else.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good course, February 1, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Berlitz Basic Italian (Italian Edition) (English and Italian Edition) (Audio CD)
Havent used it much yet...just received it. But, it seems like it is a very well put together course. One that actually teaches you useable Italian instead of a bunch of words you'll never use. It starts off giving you ideal information that'll help you check-in to your hotel...by example. Whoever compiled the course remembered what all transpired when they checked in at an Italian hotel & used it as an example.
Again, a useful course & the price was more than OK!
