There are just 4 simple steps to learning Italian at Language Speedway…

1. Look at an English word or phrase


2. Try to think of the Italian translation

And that’s all there is to it.

Language Speedway keeps track of which questions you know and which ones you don’t know. You’ll get drilled on the questions you don’t know until they sink in, and new questions will be gradually introduced at a pace that’s perfectly tailored to your learning speed.
