[GET] Learning Italian Like Crazy — Your best choice to learn how to speak the beautiful Italian language!

I personally think there are some huge problems out there for people like you trying to learn to speak my beautiful Italian language. For starters, many of the popular selling Italian language programs have you falsely believe that you can learn to speak Italian without having a solid grammatical foundation. Let me tell you, that’s just not possible! To become fluent in Italian you have to think in Italian. And, you can not begin to think in Italian unless you have a good Italian grammar foundation. It’s really that simple and straight forward!

The second problem that I see is that many of these Italian courses place a lot of emphasis on memorization of words and phrases. They use some very rigid methods to drill into your head the meanings and definitions of what they consider to be practical and useful Italian words and phrases. Very little emphasis is given to using real scenarios and natural conversations in their lessons. So, often times your quest to learn to speak Italian becomes more difficult than it should be. By this point, many people convince themselves that they just can’t learn to speak Italian. Oh, how wrong they are, how wrong they are…


I have also noticed that many of these Italian courses don’t place enough emphasis on proper pronunciation. I actually consider this almost a sin! You see, I truly believe that God gave the Italian language the most beautiful sound of all languages. So why don’t these other Italian courses focus more on teaching you how to properly pronounce the beautiful sounds, pitches, and tones of the Italian language?

"Our method teaches you Italian the same way you learned to speak your native tongue…"

That’s a very popular phrase that I have heard on the radio, TV and even read in print and online (maybe you’ve heard it too). And, honestly, on the surface it sounds really good. I mean think of it, you really didn’t have to study or attend a single class to learn to speak in your native tongue. It was all really natural. So, if you find a course that can teach you to speak Italian the same way that your parents and/or caregivers taught you to speak then of course you have to get it. I mean, it only makes sense. But, let’s peel back the "Our method teaches you Italian the same way you learned to speak your native tongue" phrase and see what it really smells like…

We’ll start off by asking the obvious, "can an adult learn to speak Italian the same way a baby learns to speak his or her native tongue?" The answer to that question is ABSOLUTELY NOT!!

We won’t even get into the brain development phenomenon that takes place during the early years of life, which of course is like no other period in our entire adult life. Instead, let’s talk about the environmental setting in which a child learns to speak.

Have you ever stopped to think about how fully immerse children are in their native tongue during the years in which they are learning to speak? You have the mother, father, grandparents, uncles, aunts, in-laws, and friends constantly interacting with the child in his or her native tongue. Many of these interactions are specific to getting the child to say a word, phrase, or sentence. This structure creates a true and full 100% language learning immersed environment for the child. So, combined with the wonderful brain development taking place, the child learns to speak.

Now, ask yourself, what course can duplicate the same brain developmental stage and environment setting where you will be 100% of the time fully immersed in learning to speak Italian? Of course the answer is none!

So, now you see why you can not learn to speak Italian the same way you learned to speak your native language? You need a course that recognizes and acknowledges this fact and presents the lessons to you in a format geared to where you are in life, an adult!

Perhaps the last problem that I see out there for people trying to learn to speak Italian is that most courses don’t provide you with enough details of the specific topics covered in each of their lessons.

To me, this is equivalent to taking a top level view of what you will learn in each Italian lesson and something that will help you set your expectations before you even buy the course. It will also obviously help you make a better informed decision as to whether or not a particular course is right for you. The end result will be saving of your valuable time and money in your journey to learn my beautiful Italian language.

In creating Learning Italian Like Crazy (LILC), I used a method of reinforcement to help you THINK in Italian. Without a doubt this method/approach separates Learning Italian Like Crazy from the popular courses I made reference to earlier. Many students have emailed me to say “Wow Giovanna, this is really a fun way to learn Italian.” Others have said that my method of teaching Italian is more effective than any other method that they have ever used to learn Italian.

There are foreign language teaching methods (i.e. courses) out there that mistakenly use listening and repetition of phrases as a futile attempt to fluency into a foreign language. From my personal experience in learning other languages and in teaching, that’s one of the most impractical and ineffective ways to learn or teach a foreign language. The monotonous memorization and drilling exercises get old quickly and is often the reason why many people give up learning a foreign language. Phrase memorization and drilling is tedious, boring, and DOES NOT WORK. PERIOD!!!!

Drilling is the automatic…
