Review

"By week 6 to my delight, I can recognise most of the words I hear and have an inkling of how to respond. By the end of the course I am astonished and proud to say that I feel I have a good grasp of Italian and can speak comfortably on everyday subjects. I find that vocabulary I'm looking for seems to pop up in my head rather than deliberately absent itself as it has done in the past." Times Body & Soul "This is a great, fun way to learn. The Mind Maps helped to make it easier. What makes this different is the interactive side; there is more to do and more of an opportunity to use creativity. I'll definitely go for a GCSE in Italian now and I'll definitely use Mind Maps in future for learning any other languages I decide to study." Luke, aged 14, Times Body & Soul "This really does do what it says on the box, it teaches you French that you really remember. Forget all these other courses, go for this one! I couldn't recommend it more - c'est tres bien! (it's very good!) " Amazon reviewer
