5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent learning tool, April 1, 2010

This review is from: ITALIAN in 10 minutes a day with CD-ROM (Paperback)

This book was recommended by a friend, and I liked it so much I decided to buy a copy for myself. It has pictures and pronounciations, stickers and flash cards, and feels like a grammar school workbook, which is said as a compliment. In other words, it approaches learning a new language in a very non-threatening and fun way, not at all like a stuffy textbook. I have been able to make a lot of progress using this book along with the Italian language class I am taking as a supplement to the stuffy textbook. The instructor wants to use this for the text next semester.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good for Beginners, August 27, 2009

By 

Amadeus (Pittsburgh, PA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: ITALIAN in 10 minutes a day with CD-ROM (Paperback)

Italian in 10 Minutes a Day is a great book for beginners or those wanting only a superficial understanding of the language. The colorful presentation, fun activities, flashcards, and word stickers are all a great way to get started, but please understand before purchasing that you will NOT be anywhere near fluent regardless of how much time is spent with this book. You will be "speaking" in 10 minutes a day, but don't think small Tuscan villages where English is little spoken will be open to you, or Italian music or movies. My recommendation, get this book, use it and then get a more serious grammar and a tape course like Pimsluer.
