Hi friends, my name is Glenda, and teaching foreign languages is my passion! There are a lot of different ways to learn a language—studying books, taking a class, or even watching foreign movies. But I’m an auditory learner. I have to hear and repeat the language to make it stick. In fact, when I was a teenager taking Italian classes, I would often make my own (cassette) recordings and study for my tests by listening to them.

Most people think the way to write a best seller is to have a lot of talent and even more luck. As you will learn, there is a recipe for success, and luck may be the least important ingredient in creating a best seller. No one has cracked the code better than James Scott Bell. A best-selling author himself, and the author of the number-one best seller for writers, Plot & Structure, Mr. Bell has been teaching the principles of best-selling fiction for over 20 years, principles that apply to any genre or style.

In July 1995, San Jose Mercury-News reporter Gary Webb found the Big One - the blockbuster story every journalist secretly dreams about - without even looking for it. A simple phone call concerning an unexceptional pending drug trial turned into a massive conspiracy involving the Nicaraguan Contra rebels, L.A. and Bay Area crack cocaine dealers, and the Central Intelligence Agency.

Hi friends, my name is Glenda, and teaching foreign languages is my passion! There are a lot of different ways to learn a language—studying books, taking a class, or even watching foreign movies. But I’m an auditory learner. I have to hear and repeat the language to make it stick. In fact, when I was a teenager taking Italian classes, I would often make my own (cassette) recordings and study for my tests by listening to them.

Loved it!
Paul’s untraditional method of teaching is wonderful! The clues he provides to remember important information is so unique and useful. It’s also great that he doesn’t expect you to cram everything into your mind the first time you hear it. So you actually enjoy going through his lesson knowing he will circle back to new topics again later on to refresh your memory. Totally loved it and learned a ton. Will be using the last chapter for practice as he suggested very often. It’s a bit of a speed-round of everything you learn in the book. Such a well thought out set of lessons.

Mixed emotions, but overall recommend
I listened to this as a complete beginner to Italian, but with background in Spanish, French and Portuguese. What I learned from this course, I learned well and feel confident and capable. I feel like I'm pronouncing things relatively well and although I don't have any idea how to spell many of the words I can speak, I believe it's a better way to learn if you plan on speaking and listening rather than reading and writing.
My main complaint is that I didn't learn very basic things like "Hi, how are you?" and "You're welcome". It seems strange that I can say, "I'd like to reserve a room for two people, for three nights, with bath." and "I am not feeling well, I vomited. I have sun stroke" but I didn't learn simple greetings except for "ciao". I got the second course and still haven't encountered what I would like to learn before traveling (greetings, important items I might see on a menu, directions (things like left, right, ahead, etc). From the second course, I can say "I was in the middle of cooking dinner when you knocked on the door" but I don't think I'll need to say that on my trip.
Overall I'd recommend the book if you would like to improve your ability to listen to and speak Italian but you'll definitely need a supplement if you plan on traveling.

More useful than 6 months of Duolingo
I recently went to Italy after 6 months of daily practice on Duolingo (not slouching either- I’m in the top 2% on the platform) and found myself unprepared for most basic exchanges.
I think the moment I realized I needed a better tool was when I found myself in a cafe, pointing at a sandwich in a case but unable to say “I’d like that one” in Italian.
So I turned to audible and I’m glad I did.
I’ve made more progress towards becoming conversational with this course than I did in the previous 6-9 months.
Paul’s teaching style is very easy to follow: rather than rote memorization of hundreds of words, he drops etymological bombs that add many words to your vocabulary instantly. For example, almost every word in English which ends in “ation” (Latin root), simply changes the end to “are” in Italian—that’s 1,200+ words. :head_exploding_emoji:
I also particularly like his use of having a native Italian speaking woman answer the questions which he’s asking you, after a short pause.
I shouldn’t totally discount Duolingo- I’m sure the 6 months I did (and I continue to use it) helped prepare me for this course to some extent- but if I had to choose one, I’d choose this course, without question. Kind of mind blowing that it only cost a single book credit on Audible. Can’t recommend enough.
