Publisher's summary

With Paul Noble’s simple, relaxed approach you will learn in a way that suits you – without having to memorise long lists of words you won’t use, scribbling notes as you listen, or feeling frustrated. Instead, Paul will introduce you to the basics of the Italian language and guide you through over 13 hours of everyday scenarios – from simple situations like asking for directions and eating out to talking about yourself and how to master the different tenses – that are practical, fun, and applicable. Just listen, interact, and learn wherever you are.

Whatever your experience with languages, whether you’re an absolute beginner or someone with basic knowledge who wants to improve their ability, this is the course to get you speaking Italian quickly and confidently.

A native-speaking Italian expert will help you to perfect your pronunciation as you progress through the course. You will learn a huge range of vocabulary in no time at all, and be able to quickly make your new knowledge work for you in a variety of everyday scenarios. A downloadable booklet is also included to use as a reference and revision tool.

Paul Noble left school unable to speak a language – having found that the traditional learning methods left him feeling ‘confused, incapable and unable to really say anything’. Determined that there must be a better way to learn, Paul spent years devising his own unique method of learning languages which cuts out all the grammar, all the memorisation, and all the stress. He began using his method to teach in his Language Institute and, thousands of students later, he prides himself on never having had a student fail.

Hands down the best class and teacher for any language, this being another fantastic one :-)

Great beginner course - excellent for travel

I found the method very efficient and I enjoyed the tips (tomato, mosquito, pluto etc) in forming the different tenses. It includes pretty much everything you need to know if you plan a journey to Italy. I found the narrative voice a bit to relaxing :). I also adjusted the speed to 1.2 or 1.3, as the pace was a bit too slow. There are a lot of repetitions but I guess this is how the vocabulary sticks. Overall, a good investment, well worth the 1 credit for the complete course.

Great start to Italian

I thoroughly enjoyed learning on this course. Clear and concise, I really learnt a lot

Best Audio Book to Learn Languages

I’ve tried quite a few audio books to learn basic Italian but this is the only audible book which made it possible for me to start to converse in the language. I ‘m looking forward to listening to Next Steps in Italian and hope it’s as good as this one.

Excellent study material

Plenty of repetition. Enough to make your travelling easy in Italy. Enough for basic conversions.

Updates Required

Very good program overall.
However, I don’t think many people camp anymore or reserve hotel rooms without a bathroom. The program should be updated to include airport situations and phone and texting scenarios.

Wish the conversations were a bit more varied

The learning method was great (though I find 1.5 x listening to sound more natural). The phrases and discussions seemed a little odd, but maybe it gets better with the “next” part of the series. Otherwise, pretty great!

Italian 101

Great way to start learning a new language. A good way to progress in the language. May recommend that a few more modern context be used but overall it is thoroughly enjoyable and intuitive.

It works

It just works. I enjoyed it very much and learned. Thank you mr. Noble!
