Learning Is Fast, Fun and Friendly with Quickstart
Italian Immersion!
Product Information
Quickstart Italian Immersion software is designed for you to start quickly and maximize
the full potential of the widely accepted method of learning a language -
the "Immersion" Method. The learning method is similar to the way
you would acquire your own native language. Each word is introduced in a context where
meaning is clear and memorable. The spoken and written words are associated with
visual images, allowing you to improve your listening comprehension, reading
comprehension, spelling, and speaking. You will be authentically immersed
in the Italian language with exclusive Panoramic Immersion Scenes
and background sounds - mastering Italian in no time at all!
Easy and effective for beginners and travelers, a powerful learning tool for
intermediate speakers, and a useful refresher course for advanced speakers!
Speech Recognition & Analysis
Train and improve your pronunciation! Select from over 2000 words and 1200
phrases. The Recording Session with Voice Recording and Visualized Playback
Technology enables you to record your own speech and compare it to the tutor's
voice to determine your accuracy.
Custom Preference Settings
Customize the interface to suit your preferences. Choose a male or female
narrator's voice. Set preference of single language or dual language (your
native language and the language you are learning) for on-screen text display.
Choose whether to have background sounds while participating in Panoramic Scene
Activities.
Native Language Interface
Learn to speak using your own native language! Most language software sold in
the U.S. requires you to first be proficient in Italian before you can learn
another language. Not with Quickstart Immersion! Help and menus, words and
phrases, games and tests can all be changed to the native language of your
choice.
