Best for becoming conversational

I've been listening to various programs over the last few weeks in preparation for an upcoming solo trip to Italy, including the innovative learning series, and this is probably the best for becoming conversational the fastest. I feel that other programs complement this approach, as I also want to be able to read Italian, but I feel that Pimsleur's structured repetition approach is the most like learning a language in situ. I have a basic foundation now, and Pimsleur is taking me to the next level in actually speaking, which is exactly what I was looking for.

Fantastic

These courses really are fantastic. The daily ritual of repetitive, but progressive conversation is kind of magical. It really does seem to work.

Very Basic, Lots of Repetition

This course has excellent native speakers, but it's very basic. You'll learn a small vocabulary and a few phrases that are repeated over and over. Even for a beginner, this will become tedious by the fifth lesson.

Errors

Unit 5 contains at least 2 errors. If the direct object pronoun is used in passato prossimo, the gender and number of the participle must match the pronoun. L’ha visto (la città) should be L’ho vista. Credo che requires congiuntivo. So, “credo che è svizzera”should be “Credo che sia svizzara.”
