4.0 out of 5 stars A good pack which includes everything for the beginner, 30 Oct 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Italianissimo: Beginners No.1 (Paperback)
This language package works well as the contents of the cassettes follows the chapters in the book. As well as introducing the basics in speaking and listening to Italian, it also introduces the grammer neccessary to understand all aspects of the language.
At first the speakers on the cassettes seem difficult to understand, but as you re-listen and repeat, they become clearer and you can chart your progress with the language.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 16 Aug 2009
I learnt italian with the first edition of this pack, and I've bough the second edition for revision.

The course focuses on practical tasks - introducing yourself, ordering drinks, reserving a hotel room etc rather than the 'chapter-1-definite-article-and-the-present-tense' type approach of old-fashioned courses. Personally I prefer that even if it means some of the 'jumping about' that an earlier reviewer complained about.

I like the fact that the programme generally uses dialogues between real Italians rather than text read by an actor which always sounds artificial.

If you are a real absolute beginner then you might want to start with the BBC's Talk Italian course.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very poor.., 28 Sep 2007
This textbook is so bad! It jumps around all over the place, the sound bites are confusing and the layout is all flash and no substance. Save your money!
