Product Description
With the Rosetta Stone Italian Personal Edition Level 1, you have the same new language-instruction techniques at your disposal that the U.S. State Dept, the Peace Corps and NASA use!
Amazon.com Product Description
Learn a new language with the award-winning method used by the U.S. State Department to train diplomats. Proven effective by NASA astronauts, Peace Corps volunteers, and millions of students worldwide, the Rosetta Stone Language Library teaches new languages faster and easier than ever before. We all learn our childhood language by associating new words and phrases with the world around us. The Rosetta Stone method replicates this process by presenting vivid, real-life images to convey the meaning of each new phrase. Instead of translating, memorizing, and studying rules of grammar, you actually learn to think in the new language. Vocabulary and grammar are integrated systematically, leading to everyday proficiency. The Rosetta Stone Level I program offers a comprehensive course of study for beginning learners, leading to intermediate proficiency. The program contains over 3,500 real-life images and phrases in 92 lessons and more than 250 hours of mastery instruction in listening comprehension, reading, speaking, and writing. Systematic structure teaches vocabulary and grammar naturally, without lists and drills. There are reviews, exercises, and tests for every lesson with automated tutorials throughout the program. (Ages 6 and older)

 Bella Italia! September 27, 2007
Ms. Nina Mohadjer (US)
I knew some italian, but needed to refresh my knowledge! This is by far the best product! I would absolutely recomend the Rosetta Stone!
Rosetta Stone Rocks August 23, 2007
Donna L. Minck (Newville, Pa.)
This is the first time I tried to learn any language! Being Italian I had a very keen interest in this language and was scared. I started and it was helpful, interesting and I was able to go back and go forward as I felt I needed. I often want to go back and review from the beginning and I am able to do this. The pictures, the written words, and the voice is all so helpful.
 It is ok but not the best August 1, 2007
Robert J. Brauer (USA)
Like some other programs, you have to guess the meaning of the pictures, it is fine with sample pictures but with more complicate situations, people guess differently, so they suppose to speak different words?
If it had pictures and words,include dictionary and explanations, that would be perfect.
My kids are addicted! July 3, 2007

My kids, 7 and 9 years old, are addicted to learning Italian using the Rosetta Stone system. After a year of trying traditional methods (workbooks, audio tapes and videos - all for children)without much interest on their part ("It's too much like school!" my seven year old complained)I was at a loss until a friend recommended the system to me. We tried the free demo CD (available at Rosetta's website) and I was delighted to see my kids enjoying the games AND spouting Italian words and phrases. We ordered Rosetta Stone Italian Level 1 Win/Mac Personal Edition from Amazon and now after just four weeks of daily five minute lessons (sometimes they play for a half hour) we are having mini Italian conversations. I am pleased that my kids enjoy the program and that they are learning the language without their mother nagging them. Che bello!
Worth the money June 6, 2007

It may be a little more expensive than other language software, but I think it is well worth the extra cost. The total immersion method may seem a little intimidating, but you will be surprise at how quickly you learn as opposed to a memorization technique.
