Save your money. Not for beginners gvonstoddard Please save your money if you're a beginner wanting to learn Italian from the start. The CDs are absolutely frustrating and if you're a beginner it's not helpful at all . It doesn't make any sense the first CD is very much made for beginner after that the rest of the CD's are for too fast and too confusing. Don't believe me? Just to make sure I wasn't crazy I played them for my girlfriend who is from Italy and even she told me to turn it off because it was too fast and too confusing.

They misuse verb conjugations in many places without explanation. For example: using abbia versus ha or sia instead of e'.They add words or use contractions without explanation. For example: Cos'hai is a contraction pronounced coz-eye. But it's two words Cosa hai which are pronounced coza eye.They repeat tracks on the CDs. Literally, there are duplicate tracksThey waste time re-phrasing sentences with only changing a person's name. For example: Mr. Rossi, turn! Signor Rossi, giri! Mrs. Marco turn! Signora Marco. "Disappointment" according to Mark. I was psyched after the warm up CD and felt that I really could learn a new language with that sort of pacing, explanation, and repetition.

I plan on learning with another set and then I can try to salvage this investment by using these as review when I am more comfortable with the language. For a newcomer
