BEST FOR BEGINNING TO INTERMEDIATE

Would you listen to Power Italian I Accelerated/Complete Written Listening Guide-Tapescript/8 One Hour Audio Lessons again? Why?

I started from zip (niente) in Italian with this course (Power Italian) and now I feel that I am at least speaking and understanding Italian at an intermediate level. I say this because my wife’s family now understands me when I talk and I can actually converse with her nonna – grandmother in Italian.
Of course, their accents all vary and I speak slowly compared to her native Italian speaking family. BUT … come on man. For $19.00 bucks, this course is a dream. It’s fast and easy enough for me to understand and learn to speak some Italian. If this works for me, then anybody can learn with this method.

Molto Bene - Benissimo

If you could sum up Power Italian I Accelerated/Complete Written Listening Guide-Tapescript/8 One Hour Audio Lessons in three words, what would they be?

From the excellent voice of Hilaria to Mark's explanations to the culture to the idioms and the simple sentences all I can say is that this program simplifies speaking Italian so much that I think even my dog could learn to speak Italian with it. Love it.

Great Italian Instruction Aimed at Fluency

What did you love best about Power Italian I Accelerated - 8 One Hour Audio Lessons - 144 Study Units?

I went from being a complete novice to actually conversing in Italian with natives with this little $19.00 program. It's amazing effective if you use it every day.
I loved the fresh and intense approach which forced me to recall and really learn how to speak Italian. I have read reviews that state the contrary, but I have listened and relistened to this program and the material is always new, fresh, and then it is all strategically reviewed so you get strong at speaking, responding, creating original sentences.

What did you like best about this story?

The teaching approach and technique used in Power Italian is the best I have yet experienced. No guessing. Everything is explained clearly in English by the American instructor and then spoken slowly then quickly by the native Italian speaker. Then the best part. You get repeated chances to get the questions right, to remember correctly. You literally fail your way to fluency with this program just like a little child is allowed to stumble, fall, get up and try to walk until he or she finally makes it.

Have you listened to any of Mark Frobose’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes. I have tried a number of Mark's programs and they are all fantastic. I just have to repeat that it's an unbelievable value to get this kind of effective instruction for so little money, and then have so much fun learning it. The best part is showing off in front of your friends.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I had an extremely happy response to Power Italian Accelerated. The first time you listen you learn enough to say "Where is the bathroom" and "I would like to order now please".

Any additional comments?

Don't waste your money on all of the bizarre language programs out there. Language Audiobooks really makes great programs and I highly recommend you try Power Italian.
You'll be speaking Italian fast and enjoying that process they use!

Easy to Learn, Speak and Remember Technique

Any additional comments?

On the recommendation of a friend who has been using Language Audiobooks programs for some time, I ordered Power French and Power Italian Accelerated to prepare for the trip I just took to Europe. Here is what I experienced with Power Italian 1 from the learning perspective:
Nice Italian Speaker - Good Explanations - Great Relevant Subject Matter - Easy to Learn, Speak and Remember Technique
Here's what happened when I got to Italy after nothing but a few weeks with Power Italian:
I could survive at the Marco Polo Airport in Venice. I spoke Italian to the taxi driver and asked
"How much?" and understood the response. I booked a room in Italian, ordered some food, asked for 'peace = fish' and got fish. Could tell people what I wanted and where I wanted to go and ask them to "Please repeat more slowly" all in Italian.
That after just 2 1/2 weeks of listening and practicing on my IPhone and in my car for $19.00 bucks. Great investment in my opinion. Well worth the money if you want to learn a lot of usable Italian really fast without a hassle.

Like the Listening Guide Approach

Any additional comments?

I really liked the approach with the Italian lady and the guy explaining it in English.
For me it works better than most of the other stuff I’ve used to learn Italian.
My wife likes Pimsleur too, but they don’t have the written material that Power Italian has. It helps me to be able to see the words written and to follow it that way at home, so I go with Power Italian and the listening guide approach.

Best Italian Course So Far

Power Italian by Language Audiobooks is by far the best beginning Italian program I have used so far. Very intense but so easy to understand, to practice and to improve. The native Italian speaker is so considerate and really teaches the correct accent, and Mark really explains things completely in English. I really think all language programs should be structured this way to people like me don't have to guess anymore. I'm remembering almost everything because these two don't let you forgot. Lots of memory review, great vocab. I really like it.

Maybe it's just me but...

It didn't feel very robust, powerful or accelerated. I'm already looking for another audiobook to try to really learn some Italian.

Speeds Up and Simplifies Fluency

You practice with a live educated native speaker and you always understand because Mark explains the meanings in English and then Italian spoken slowly and then at native speed. This way you gradually gain fluency through essential practice and finally you’re speaking real Italian at native speed.
And the memory technique makes it so easy to remember all of it in an enjoyable way. You get to fail at speaking Italian until you get it right.
Like Mark says, you fail your way to fluency, just like a child learns to walk.
No other Italian program can duplicate the genius of the highly effective method.

Super Fast Way to Learn Italian

Any additional comments?

It is unbelievable how quickly I have learned to speak and understand huge amounts of basic Italian with this program. The program totally demsystifies the Italian language by breaking it down bit by bit, translating it so you understand what you’re learning, and then teaching you simple ways to create your own original sentences. Super deal for the money and the Italians I have met in Rome say I’m doing great.
