Learning Italian has never been so easy with Michel Thomas Italian language courses. His approach
gives startling results within a remarkably short time, all without the
need for books, memorizing, or homework.
What is the Michel Thomas method?
Over a period of more than
fifty years, Michel Thomas has developed and perfected a unique method of
teaching Italian that 'makes it simple' (The Sunday Times).
In essence, Michel Thomas breaks the Italian language down to its component
parts and enables learners to reconstruct the language themselves to form
their own sentences, to say what they want, when they want. The experience
of learning Italian becomes so exciting and satisfying that it stimulates
self-motivation and builds confidence.
With identical courses in French, German, Italian, and Spanish,
the Michel Thomas range includes the 8-hour Foundation Course, the 5-hour Advanced
Course and the 2-hour Language Builders all of which have taken the language-learning
world by storm.
STOP PRESS: The Italian Vocabulary Course builds on the Foundation and Advanced Courses to increase the number and range of words you will be able to use. Rose Lee Hayden, Michel Thomas’s most trusted teacher, shares her first-hand insights with the author, Paola Tite, an experienced author of Italian courses, to give you over 1,000 Italian words in a unique and memorable way. Rose is joined by two native speakers to make sure your pronunciation is perfect, while a booklet shows you the written language.
