    Conversational Italian for Beginners

    5.0

    A very well presented course in Italian. Larry taught at a steady pace and with enthusiasm for the Italian language and culture.

    Easy to understand, wish the last few sections were more in depth

    5.0

    Overall I think this is a great course. Larry spoke at a good pace and gave a good introduction to Italian learning. The last few sections were informative about traveling in Italy, but I would rather learn more key Italian conversational phrases than about traveling tips. I think people can research those on their own. I would suggest taking those sections out and putting in a few more sections on conversing. That would make the course perfetto!

    I always wanted to learn Italian. This is a good start for it. You won’t be fluent by any means, but you learn a solid foundation.

    Well Worth My Time and Money

    I really enjoyed this beginner Italian lesson, and have learned so much. Larry does a great job of explaining, and breaking down the lessons in such a way that it is easy to remember. I’m was pleasantly surprised that there is a section that goes over Italian culture, and some important things to note when you are visiting Italy. This is so important because you really can’t learn a foreign language without understanding the culture. I very highly recommend this course.
