Learning Italian Like Crazy Speak Italian Faster Than You Ever Thought Possible... 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!!!! No Memorization or Drilling... Drilling is the automatic repetition of phrases or sentences for memorization purposes. You will not find any phrase memorization or tedious drills in LILC. The goal of each of my lessons is to get you to THINK in Italian to make it easy and fun. And you know what? Frankly speaking I don''t understand why the popular selling courses in the market don''t use this approach to teach you my beautiful language.... Just Put The Puzzle Together.... I always try to give my private students as much advice as I possibly can to help them learn to speak Italian. One that just about every private student hears from me (and that I want you to also take heed to) is to approach learning Italian like you are trying to put a puzzle together...
