content: The introductory disc of Drive Time Italian employs the repetition and pace that is reasonable for this type of learning which is while one is driving and listening without textbooks, as it is advertised. Following that disc however, the speakers do not repeat, and the pace is very quick. In additon, the instructor uses technical terms such as 'the infinitive' out of a context to provide support for adult learners who have been away from formal schooling for awhile. The lessons need to be done more slowly, and with much more repetition. The Italian and the English version should be used together so that the learner knows what is being said, and the progress the learner is making. I am very disappointed in this set of CDs and believe they were not worth the money I paid.
