PREVIEW THIS TITLE

This new beginner-level text in the Sei pronto series comes with two audio CDs recorded by native speakers. Each of 12 units focuses on one specific aspect of contemporary Italian culture through a wide range of material -- editorial articles, flyers, letters, emails, text messages, advertisements, blogs, telephone conversations and web excerpts.

The Sei pronto series complements traditional textbooks used in Italian instruction. These workbook/lab manuals can also substitute as "hybrid" texts if the teacher wishes to teach grammar directly.

This series is also useful as a listening, reading, writing and speaking review for high school students wishing to prepare for standardized testing in Italian.

  • 12 units: Le presentazioni, La casa, Gli amici, La scuola, La famiglia, I lavori di casa, Il tempo libero, L'abbigliamento, Il cibo, Le azioni quotidiane, Le feste, Le vacanze

“A concise challenging workbook -- an excellent source to introduce Italian language study. [...] Each chapter focues on a familiar subject such as family, food and holidays, keeping the student interested and motivated. The laboratory CD component encourages students to express themselves orally from the very beginning.”
