The Full Roadmap
8 lessons, start to finish
Each lesson builds directly on the last. Follow them in order for the smoothest path to A1.
The Approach
Built to actually stick
01
Pro-drop from day one
Italian regularly drops subject pronouns — this course teaches that instinct from Lesson 1, not as an afterthought.
02
Grammar you can picture
Every verb group and case gets a visual memory-map, not just a table to memorise.
03
Practice every time
No lesson ends on theory alone — you'll write, choose, and translate before moving on.
04
A real path to A2
Lesson 8 closes with a full review and a clear roadmap into the next level.
