Teach Yourself--Instant Italian

If you've ever wanted to learn Italian and say more than just buongiorno and arrivederci but don't have the time or inclination for long hours of study, then the Instant Italian course is the Italian language lifeline you've been looking for--minimal effort for maximum results. If you can invest just over half an hour a day for only six weeks, then you too could be sipping chianti with confidence or living la dolce vita!

Market-leading author Elisabeth Smith has been teaching her successful instant courses worldwide for 30 years. As a German ex-pat living in Spain, she has first-hand experience of the trials and tribulations students often face when grappling with a new language.

Italian Instant meets the needs of ordinary people: ex-pats, business people and holidaymakers, by providing a day-by-day structured Italian learning programme that builds up language ability rapidly and, most importantly gets you speaking Italian from day one!

With clearly structured learning, split into 35-45 minute chunks, Elisabeth guides you through all the basics, building up your confidence and ability rapidly.

Elisabeth Smith says:
"Anyone can learn a language with my 'Instants'. Even if you live a busy life you can spare half an hour a day for a few weeks. Just give it a go. It doesn't matter if you make mistakes. Near enough is good enough, as long as you are communicating. That's what my Instants are all about. Giving people confidence. Stop them worrying. Getting them to speak and…enjoy it. "

All instant courses are available with full audio support on two CDs.
