Minutes a day

Listen and repeat

Research shows that you learn better by relying on speech and mimicking. Just like we did when we learned our first language when we were born.

Follow a plan

But you can’t just repeat random sentences. My course plan helps you discover grammar patterns and retain the vocabulary you are being exposed to.

Learn in small bites

If you have a spare 20 minutes each day, you can completely transform your Italian level to the point that you’ll start thinking in Italian yourself in just a few days.

Why it works

Learn at the natural speech rate

The course will guide you so that you are slowly being exposed to the language, meaning that you will be able to comfortably speak with Italian people.

This way, you will be able to have real conversations with people and feel confident about it!

You’ll be able to understand how native Italian speakers talk in a matter of days.

Will I be able to keep up with the natural speech rate? 

  • There is an option to slow down the speech rate. However don’t worry, you will pick it up. Just relax and take it in, you’ll surprise yourself!

Learn at the natural speech rate

What if I can’t pronounce the words correctly? 

  • With Ripeti con me! you won’t even need to worry about pronunciation because you’ll be pronouncing words correctly as long as you are mimicking what you hear.

Slow enough to understand but it sounds natural

The course will guide you so that you are slowly being exposed to the language, meaning that you will be able to comfortably speak with Italian people.

Spaced repetition + grammar tree

In Ripeti con me! everything follows a set schedule. The same words will be repeated in different contexts so that you are becoming accustomed to them naturally, sometimes without even realizing.

This is a new and improved way of learning. It means that you’re not having to actively memorize grammar but instead, words and phrases will be introduced more organically.

Learn vocabulary and grammar naturally
The course makes sure that you practice the grammar and vocabulary that you need so that they stick in your mind.

Will it not be boring repeating phrases?
Reading grammar and vocabulary books is boring. This method organically introduces new words and phrases so that you’re totally engaged. The lessons are carefully structured so that your mind is kept engaged and interested.

Focus on audio over text

The reality is, we are made to learn language by listening and repeating.

In fact, there are over 7000 languages in the world, but only about 200 have standard writing systems.

This means that others only have verbal communication.

They can go about their daily lives without needing to write, and this is possible for any language.

So why are we taught languages by reading complex (and boring) books?

With Ripeti Con Me, you are taken back to natural language learning.

I never learned to focus on audio over text before, why does this work?
Remember when you learned your native language as a baby? This is the most natural way to learn and this is why it works.

Avoid the distractions of your native language

Do you know one of the biggest mistakes that people make when learning a new language?

Trying to comprehend letters and spellings.

This can be incredibly confusing for your brain which is used to processing words in your mother tongue.

By learning Italian through sounds, you will avoid that issue altogether.

Ripeti con me! comes with a booklet, however, you’re only supposed to look at it after each lesson so that you aren’t focusing on words.

By the end, you’ll be amazed that you’re speaking directly in Italian.

Focus on useful vocabulary

You’ll probably agree that it is important that a language course focuses on the more frequent words spoken.

Ripeti con me! will teach you vocabulary in the right context so that you are able to adapt it naturally to different scenarios.

The vocabulary in this course will help you when:

  • Traveling in Italy
  • Speaking with locals
  • Expressing your opinion
  • Introducing yourself
  • Ordering food
  • Checking into a hotel or airport

You’ll be surprised to know that only about 300 words and phrases will help you understand 65% of a normal Italian conversation.

It’s so doable!

I am worried about forgetting the important words.
Don’t worry, the course is designed to help you retain vocabulary, so that you’ll be speaking naturally. Sleep on it and you’ll see that you can remember more words than you thought.

Learn by trial and error

You will probably find that in the past, you have tried to translate sentences before saying them.

This suggests that you have been learning a language the wrong way.

The brilliant thing about this course is that instead of translating everything in your head, you will actually think and talk in Italian effortlessly.

Instead of studying the specifics taught in your own language, this course immerses you immediately.

You will get to practice speaking all the time without being overwhelmed.

I don’t like making mistakes because I sound silly.
You will learn through trial and error, you can’t expect to be perfect from the outset. Keep going and you’ll get there.

Designed for the Italian language

Most language courses are just adaptations of the same script, generally good for all languages.

Ripeti con me! focuses purely on Italy, the culture, the geography, and the people. This is why it’s different.

All the situations in this course are exactly what you’d find on your trip to Italy.

Simply because the course was created and is taught by a native Italian!

Easy-to-use audio lessons

It must be said, spaced repetition can be overwhelming to the student if it is not done properly.

This is why the course has been carefully designed so that all you need to do is press “play” and listen.

It couldn’t be easier to learn Italian!

Inspirational Motivation

Starting a new language means starting a new habit.

This course will help you make daily continuous improvements by taking 30 minutes each day to practice.

You will see results quicker than if you practiced for 4 hours once a week.

This course gives you the tools to incorporate this new habit into your daily routine.

What if I don’t have time to practice?
All you need is 20 minutes per day speaking Italian. You can even practice the course in your car or whilst you’re out and about.
