Product Description

The only interactive language program offering an immersive environment that recreates the best elements of great one-on-one tutoring.

Be Fluent in Italian

The Harvard, Cornell, and University of Chicago graduates who developed Fluenz were determined to create a program that conveyed the unique beauty of Italian while providing a step-by-step path through the language. By bringing the magic of a great teacher to the computer screen, Fluenz Italian makes reaching fluency in this storied language possible for every single learner.

Love Italian, Actually Learn It

As strong believers in the magic of Italian, the program designers moved beyond the cookie-cutter approach typical of computer language education: methods that boast a suspiciously simple way to learn and treat adults like children by emphasizing the association of words and pictures. Instead of the "fast-food" approach to Italian, Fluenz is all about taking learners step by step through the most beautiful language in the world.

Fluenz Italian brings the power of an amazing teacher to lead, challenge, and inspire adults and teens with a real love for the language. The application is ideal for those who need everyday conversation skills, as well as for those who want to establish a strong foundation for advanced learning.

An effective approach for English Speakers

It is impossible to understand how Italian nouns must agree in gender and quantity (plural or singular) not only with articles, but also with adjectives and adverbs, without a clear explanation. Fluenz is the only interactive program offering tutor-led explanations in English that guide learners through the strategies necessary to reach fluency. This realistic, no-nonsense approach produces real results.

This review is from: Fluenz Italian 2 - Windows (DVD-ROM)

Fluenz Italian II continues where fluenz italian I left off. So if you've done the first level you're ready for this one. However if you already know some italian & feel level one would be too basic for your needs, you might be wondering whether level 2 will do you any good. I'm only up to lesson 4 in Fluenz Italian II, but here are some sample sentances of the first lesson of Level II.

Adesso sono all' ufficio ma vado a casa alle due.

Abbiamo molte cose qui, vuole vedere?

Il grande ombrello costa trentadue euro.

Sono qui per tre giorni, dopo vado in Francia.

Level II is also where you start getting into past tense verbs. It is the same instructor as level one and the same exact format. I was a little dissapointed to see that the format of level two was identical to that of level one as I was ready for something fresh, and wanted them to change it up a little for level two; But considering this is better than any other software out there now including Rosetta Stone, it's still worth 5 stars. I recommend Fluenz to anyone wanting to learn a language on their own.
