- Anna Proudfoot
Once you have mastered a beginner's course in Italian, it can be hard to know where to go to improve your Italian further. In spite of the slightly off-putting title, this book is a very readable and accessible way to continue your Italian studies, with a thorough and comprehensive look at how Italian is used in everyday conversations and situations. Each chapter contains short dialogues, tests and plainly-written explanations of the different points of grammar, leading to a greater understanding of how the language fits together rather than simply measuring key phrases parrot-fashion.
