Stefano the genius polyglot- Really helpful Stefano is an extremely intelligent and amazing person . He is a polyglot, that means genius! A little bit sarcastic and ironic sometimes (most of the times), but that makes the lessons more interesting! I am glad that Devil sent him to me! Highly recommended! P.S. He is kind of misanthrope, but that's his perfectionism!

A very well structured, enjoyable course After taking 40 (out of 250) 'Ripeti con Me' lessons I find the course enjoyable and highly useful. Each lesson has a focus on broad-usage forms (e.g. the correct use of when/while, before/after); in the meantime, vocabulary is enlarged, and grammar is introduced as if 'thru the back door.' Every lesson contains new material but also builds on material already learnt. Far from being a mere collection of phrases, this is in fact a very sophisticated method that for me works extremely well. Personally I can say that my progress from one lesson to the next is substantial.

Aural approach is valuable. Aural approach is unique and valuable. Both examples and readings deal with day-to-day situations with humor. Problems with site such as pop-ups are minor. “AI” needs monitoring. Forum has been dropped. Questions regarding billing for renewal were initially met with canned response. Rating upgraded after billing problem solved. (Thanks Elizabeth.)

At last, the best in the field online Italian langage learning system. Think in Italian is the course we have longed for as we plod through many insufficient online offerings. Seamlessly combining composition, grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary building, the AI factor offers ongoing assessment and correction. It's as good or even better than having a real time tutor because any and all aspects don't have a time stamp. My highest praise is that Stefano Lodolo has created a modern classic course of real learning that makes self-delusion about one's real progress impossible. Each Think in Italian session is challenging, fun, and inspires hope that one might, in time, attain the ability not only to think but also converse and compose in correct, colloquial, even scholarly Italian. Bravissimo e mille grazie, Stefano. ---Suzanne Rini
