Amazon.com Review

Look ma, no textbooks! The Learn in Your Car series treats you like a child--in the best possible way--starting with one-word phrases ("please," "good-by"), counting exercises, and simple nouns ("bus," "train") designed to imitate a child's learning process. First you hear the words in English, then they are repeated slowly in clear, unaccented pronunciations. The method is extremely effective for those who don't know a thing, or for those who want to brush up by testing themselves when the English words are spoken. The tapes emphasize the building blocks of communicating in a foreign country rather than rote phrases that only apply on the tape and not in real-life exchanges. Level 1 painlessly covers basic verb forms, essential prepositions, near future and past tenses, as well as shopping, hotel reservations, and other travel-related situations. The series includes French, German, Italian, Russian, Japanese, and Spanish in three levels that can be purchased individually or in boxed sets. Each level contains two 90-minute cassettes (or CDs) and an accompanying booklet (not for use behind the wheel) with helpful explanations and scripts for the lessons.

Review

"Your audio program is the best I've tried. I just returned from France and had a wonderful time conversing in French even though I had only three weeks with your tapes before I left. Thanks for putting out such a superlative product at a reasonable price." --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

This review is from: Italian: Level 2 (Learn in Your Car) (Italian Edition) (Audio CD)

Great for commuters, I'm on the third level and I found these to be the best CD courses (I tried several) One good feature is, the teacher's voices come from separate channels, this is very helpful for clarification and better understanding. The female teacher's diction is not perfect (for Italian) but is pleasant, and last is that answers are repeated twice. The easiest way to learn is REPETITION, REPETITION, REPETITION. and this method is designed just like that. Same applies to my French course. I recommend these 100%.

This review is from: Learn in Your Car Italian, Level Two [With Guidebook] (Italian Edition) (Audio CD)

I had purchased and used these Learn in Your Car series in other languages but because of the poor reviews for this one I got other ones instead and was disappointed. Finally I decided to get this one and realized I should have stuck with my original idea because these were far superior to Drivetime, Pimsleur, Italian for Dummies. Each Italian word or sentence is pronounced twice. As someone else mentioned, it is helpful to use another source of study as well, such as a grammar book or a class.
