GBTruly remarkable! It works! I have attempted to become proficient with the beautiful Italian language for several years. No other program has helped me to advance my skills as fast as Fluenz. I am now mid-level three. I'm doing well and can't wait to start the next level. Thsnk you so much!

GBGreat, real world language learning tool I had thought about purchasing other language "learn at your own pace" software for Italian for a few years. I finally decided to go ahead and buy one and stumbled upon Fluenz. I had never heard of it prior to this and was about to buy Rosetta Stone since I had their free demo. Fluenz, had a different approach, however, which was to teach conversational Italian - words, phrases, etc. which would be used in the real world. All the lessons are presented in an interesting way with explanations of why words and phrases are used. I decided I'd buy it and I'm extremely pleased with the teaching approach. It teaches you the language in a way you can use almost immediately with phrases which you will use on a trip to Italy - what you learn is everyday speaking. Definitely would recommend!

GBExcellent program. Great results! I really appreciated the broad scope of this program. Instead of learming vocabulary in a vacuum, it gives the exact amount f framework you need to speak understandably and correctly. I love Sonia's presentation of the material. I completed The last lesson of Italian 1 on the plane to Rome; and was able to make my way through Italy with what I learned. So glad I chose Fluenz over the other leading program! One suggestion: A short review built in as a stand alone at the end of each session would really help when you are just looking for refreshers of things learned during a session. The audio CD is great and helpful, but doesn't quite perform this need. Overall it was great and I highly recommend Fluenz.

GBFluenz - The Very, Very Best in Foreign Language Programs If you can't afford private foreign language training and want to learn a foreign language at your own pace, then Fluenz is the program for you. I have both the Spanish and German programs and really like how there is a tutor in each session to explain things. There are plenty of written exercises to do to test your comprehension and if you type an incorrect answer, you can easily find out what you did wrong, correct it, and move on. You can also record your voice so that you know what to improve as far as your pronunciation. Fluenz is far superior to Rosetta Stone. The software is also easy to download onto your computer, Ipad, or Iphone. Technical support is very good, too.

GBfluenz I have tried Rosetta Stone and French in Action. I feel I am learning quicker with Fluenz. My only criticism is the DVD doesn't give one enough time to think of the reply in French before the answer is given and sometimes I can't understand what is being said.
