I'm a student of Italy Made Easy, having started during Lockdown, and it's the best thing I've ever done. Being a little older, I find it more challenging to learn new things but Manu's courses are simple to follow and build grammar, understanding, vocabulary and confidence in short 10-20 minute videos. I'm so proud of how much I've learned over the past 2 years that I'm now confident enough to speak Italian when I go to Rome next week and that's a big step forward for someone who has never spoken a foreign language before now. Manu is passionate about his teaching and you will soon learn he's also a very nice person. I recommend this 100%.
I'm signed up for the Beginner Course for probably less than a year. I have memory problems so I have to keep at it. I also signed up for my own Quizlet sets and it really helps to have those. Plus the Italian verb conjugator and online dictionary that Manu recommends. All great tools. I got behind in the lessons and then they revised them. I am up to the NEW Unit 6. Just started learning about -ERE verbs. But, even prior to being signed up I had found Manu's You Tube page and started with the alphabet, numbers, months, etc because I have ancestry in Italy and research documents and his pages helped me a lot to get started and now I can read and understand probably 80-90% of most documents in Italian and a little less for most documents in Latin (which basically followed a lot of the same format as the later documents in Italian). Also some documents in French. Also finding a large number of fellow researchers in South America including some whose ancestors were from the same province and region (Provincia di Torino, Regione di Piemonte) as my ancestors and I have had to refresh my Spanish from high school and learn some Portuguese to read documents in Brazil. And even learn some German to assist at least one person whose ancestors lived in an area of northern Italy that was formerly Austrian. But it all started with Italy Made Easy and Manu's wonderful presentation and system that is enjoyable and engaging and informative. I think the only problem I have is that I am impatient and want to know more and have a hard time "waiting" for the new information coming in the next lessons! lol Kind of like a kid at Christmas who can't wait for the morning so they sneak downstairs to see if there is anything under the tree yet. lol The lessons are THAT good. Grazie mille Manu and the whole "From Zero to Italian" team!
Salve Jan, Mi Chiamo Maria Louisa, I’m also a somewhat new Italian learner. Sono di Doylestown, Pennsylvania. I would love to talk with another learner of Italian . If your interested let me know.
I just started self-learning Italian because of my friends from Italy, and I can 100% confirm that these 3 methods are THE BEST for studying any foreign language (that's how I learned Russian and Spanish all alone)! Thank you for the free lessons and tips, Manu!
Hindi ‘akshars’ are very similar to the sounds and it’s quite easy to catch the vocals if you are Indian with Hindi as a native languages ( India has more than 200 dialects of different languages)
Sí Manu!🎉 I'm planning to go to Italy next month. I'm so excited to start this course with you. This is my first time seeing one of your videos, and this one actually makes me hopeful I'll catch on to the language. Thank you 😊
Si Manu. I used to live in Brindisi as a child. I only remember a few words. I speak English and German. I want to go back to Brindisi as an adult on the Adriatic Sea, to visit.
Si Manu! You were my Italian tutor at University years ago and I never forgot the way you taught! I am currently in Firenze studying at a language school for 3 weeks now and then will be doing your courses when i am home! I want to be fluent!
SI' MANU! I'm hosting an exchange student this fall from Italy and I am trying to learn her language to help make her feel more comfortable so I am very excited to get started!
I just found your channel and you are an awesome teacher. I have downloaded apps, looked for books, searched and I honestly can’t believe I didn’t find your page sooner. I feel this is all I will need to finally be able to speak some Italian while I visit your beautiful country this year. My husband and I are so excited and your lessons will help making the experience even better. Thank you!!
Am glad i found your channel today. I am a Nigerian living in Italy for about 10 years now and i most say i'm not so proud of my Italian language communications skills. Although i'm very sure your videos will help a lot from now henceforth😂. Thanks man and have a wonderful day 🫡
I’m also a student of Italy Made Easy and can confirm everything Manu has said is true! His teaching style is clear concise. You have to keep watching and listening to Italian. Manu has proven his ‘controversial’ style of teaching works! Love you Manu and after trying all other courses you have helped me to achieve my goal of speaking and understanding Italian 🙏 Molto grato
Super thrilled to have found this series. And I’m really glad I have no problems with the vowels because I pronounce them the same in my native language, that also has its roots in the old latin. Can’t wait to find out more!

Wow, Without even beginning the series, It's how I learned Turkish, I used to listen to a lot of Turkish content without understanding and with time It all started to make sense and you get much more familier with the language. Now I'm exited to start. I'll be in Italy for 10 days in the summer.
So happy to have found this! My Nonna is from Puglia and I never learned the language. My dream is to have a full conversation with her in Italian one day!
Si, Manu. My wife and I are planning our first visit to Italy. Both of our grandparents came to the U. S. around the 1920’s. I’m very excited to learn more about my heritage. Thank you
i’m so happy i found this series because this is how my japanese teacher teaches and it works so well for me. she tries to speak 90% japanese each class period BUT she always explains in english AND signs with ASL while teaching new japanese words (to help associate words with signs to remember easier, it helps people who don’t know ASL too) also when it comes to active immersion, i do this anyway with italian bands that i love! music is the reason why i want to learn italian! (and it’s just super beautiful!)
@@joanneformisano5811 "Il Volo" is a group of italian singers and you can learn Italian and pronunciation with their lyrics too! 🎵🎶 Italian Pop \ Pop-Opera \ traditional Italian ballads \ and they did an tropical-urban-raggae album in spanish as a one time project! (They sing in Italian, spanish, english, now some portoguese and they also recorded a couple of songs in latin, french and german.)
This is a huge help! your method of learning grammar in native tongue just catapulted my Portuguese to another level and will allow me to tackle Italian faster! Thanks a ton and I look forward to giving your team my money!
I'm a Spanish native speaker learning Italian in English and it's feel strage but really good at the same time because I love how you make the things see quite easy, even thoght I know that learting Italian from Spanish is better.
Ohhhh my! This pedagogy and how you explain it is just what I need, now, when learning a new language for fun for the first time after having a pretty negative learning experience with "immersion" and "tough love" during some immigrant language courses (not Italian or Italy). I'm Really looking forward to this! 🤩
As an American of Italian Origin, I feel almost compelled to learn the language. I've already learned a lot already thanks to you. Most of the Italian side of my family passed before I was born so I was not raised by them sadly.
@stephenrusso6019. Sicilian American. Ciao My Friend. Well, as for the Italian language, well, Im not good with it at all. But the Sicilian language, well, I am still good with it. Miei Bisnonni, Ernesto e Adalina Frehlini nasciru in Corleone. Diu ti Benedica Miei Amicu.
Sì, Manu. I love your energy! I’ve been trying to learn this beautiful language for years, but I can’t get any further than simple vocabulary. I would love to be able to come up with my own sentences and express myself clearly. Your channel looks amazing! I’m glad I found it!
Si Manu! I am so excited that I had to pause the video right there to put down a comment....I really hope this works. It's always been my dream to learn a wide range of languages and I hope I can learn Italian easily!! Thankyou Manu for teaching us!
This is the first channel i came across when looking into learning Italian and I'm so excited to get started! I will commit to give it my all and I'll give an update after the 30 days!
Oh my goodness, I feel so understood!! Thank you so much Manu. You are such a genuine soul and just this one video has made me feel wonderful! I’ve wanted to learn Italian for years. I think now, with this, I might but able to ! I’m so so excited thank you so much Manu 💗
Si, Mannu. I come from Indonesia and came across to your TH-cam channel about learning Italians. I can speak Dutch well and it is a phonetic language too. I am eager to learn this language after watching the landscape of Italy in Equalizer 3 and My House is in Umbria. Even though I am above 45, I try to catch up your lessons. Greetings from tropical country. Thank you
Sì, Manu! My Paternal Great Grandfather came to Chicago from Basilicata (near Potenza) but sadly, the language was not passed to me, although I did hear my grandparents speak Italian with neighbors from time to time. Therefore, English is my mother tongue. Now I am an Italian citizen by descent and trying to learn my father tongue! I am already at your 8th video in this series and I have learned more here than I have with Babbel and Rosetta Stone! I am going to continue to watch these videos and even replay them a few times as well as keep listening to Caffé Italiano con Manu, your podcasts and QVC Italia per your suggestions. I plan to visit Italy this summer for a few months and see what I can soak up during my time there. Once I get back and see what I have learned, I plan to become an official student! I am going to try and go all the way to C2 so that I can be more confident when I move to the EU a few years from now!
I started listening to your video to learn a word or two to give my mom’s friend some grief for not learning any Italian before moving to the country. But you have given me a blue print for leading any language! Honestly hats off to your quality education methods! 🎉
Thank you my friend, I am from England, but my dad is Italian and I have always wanted to learn. Thank you for teaching, and not forcing us to go back to school 😄
Oh my goodness I am so tickled that I found your channel. I’ve been wanting to learn how to speak Italian Italian for years now and hat. Try some other but it never stuck until now thank you so much. I can hardly wait to be fluent in Italian! My dream is to some day live and n Italy 🇮🇹 ❤
I am taking these TH-cam videos and courses because I was discouraged in my Italian course for community college. You made it so much clearer for me than college 😭🙏 thank you !
Viendo estas lecciones porque quiero aprender Italiano con todo mi corazón. Me gustó mucho la explicación de las vocales, ya que es igual en español. Seguiré con el resto de las lecciones. Muchas gracias ❤
When you mentioned immersion, I just think of all the Latin American kids in ESL programs in the United States, who will go to class and practice English but as soon as they are out of the classroom you will see them on campus talking to the same kids in class in Spanish which is ridiculous. I am born and raised in Brooklyn NY and my Spanish is somewhat fluent but I still struggle at times. I met a Colombian student at my University who was in a ESL program and he would complain that his classmates would never speak English, so he used our conversations as practice and I talked to him in Spanish to practice. Like you mentioned that its important to immerse yourself in the language, so I gave suggestions in music and films that he would enjoy in order to practice English.
I always wanted to learn Italian. But thought it was complicated..I just checked out QVC Italia, and was surprised how many words I actually understood. I'm German, and I think that might help since the vowels are pronounced the same. This seems like it'll be lots of fun. Thanks Manu.
Hooray! Someone finally said it - learning grammar in a foreign language is nonsense. It's often difficult even in your own language because it describes abstract concepts and patterns. Thank you. I'm yours.
Thank you for these lessons 💜 I'm learning Italian to close the language barrier between my boyfriend and I 🥰 He tries with English, but it can be difficult for him.
I'm intrigued!! I was very good in school, then lost it. It's my favourite language but I can't afford classes ☹️☹️, I don't like Duolingo, it has mistakes and makes you compete which puts me off. It's great that you give your time to do this for people like me, thank you ❤️
Hi Manu, new student. I speak French, English and Spanish. I hope this combination will just make things a lil easier for me 😅. I’m actually very glad to have come across this, siento q tus cursos van a ayudarme mucho. Arrivederci 😁
Si, Manu I work in an Italian company surrounded with Italians. I secretly want to learn Italian, atleast the basics so that I can understand what they are speaking and one fine day give them a surprise of their life 😀
Un metodo molto interessante per imparare l’italiano, bravo! Complimenti anche per il tuo inglese, di solito parlato da un madrelingua non lo capisco tutto, ma parlato da te è completamente comprensibile.
I’ve looked into a number of online Italian language learning sites and there are several good ones. But the approach and teaching style of Manu Venditti is exceptional. I’m relearning the beautiful Italian language after many years away from it and thanks to Manu it’s incredibly enjoyable.
Great content. Learning italian is almost similar to learning Swahili. We also start by learning a, e, i, o, u as kids. Pronounciation of words is exactly as they are written.
Is amazing how another language can open your mind, And how many doors it can open, because in this moment I'm learning a third language thanks to my second language that is English, because my main language is Spanish. 😃
I'm New student here, can't wait to learn more Italian I already speak Portuguese and some English also I can understand Spanish. I'm very excited to see how far I can get
@@lucapagano7636 What nobody told me, when I was at school, is that anybody can take any GCSE they want. You don’t have to register for exams through a school or college. If you want to take GCSE Ancient Greek or GCSE Meteorology or GCSE engineering or whatever you are interested in, you simply register with an Examinations Board (there are several different ones) as a private candidate. If you want to take GCSE Italian, and your school does not offer that opportunity, simply take the exam as a private candidate.
Holy something. You just made me realize why I like Tommy Teleshoping if its in dutch. Its clean, easy and simple wording. Imight actually use this in my field of work. LOL
Thank you, Manu! I'm a native English speaker married to a Venezuelan whose father emigrated to that country from the Campania region of Italy. I'm already near-native fluent in Spanish, but I'll be visiting my wife's extended family in Italy later this year for a month, so I need to learn (improve) my Italian, fast! I very much agree with your methods for learning, and am happy to see your emphasis on learning grammar in one's native language (nothing infuriates me more than language training courses that de-emphasize grammar; one CANNOT learn to speak a language effectively without knowing the language's operating rules). My biggest fear: Spanish and Italian are so close that I'll constantly confuse the two (my wife has this problem as well). Hopefully your course of instruction will be focused enough to help overcome this! Looking forward to learning from you!
This is amazing! I have not yet started your course but we visited Italy in May & although I took 4 yrs of Italian many years ago & my Italian was very rusty & I felt so bad. My main problem was not being able to understand by HEARING a person speak. It was all so fast to me (normal to the speaker) & hard for my (now older-) brain to process! Listening to your intro here NAILED IT. When learning Italian in almost any program we’re taught mainly just how to speak but not really listen. Actual communication requires *both*. I don’t understand how all of these courses don’t understand that & why is it so “controversial”. I’m so happy that you emphasize this. I’ve tried Babel & Rosetta Stone & although they’re nice for absolute basic learning, they’re not exactly geared for “older brains” & some older people like me, have some neurological delays when learning new languages because we’ve been naturally conditioned for 50+ years of our lives communicating in only one. I once had the benefit of being around my Nana & older great aunts who only spoke Italian together, so it made learning easy back then. But not hearing it regularly anymore, & not being able to speak it with anyone - like I was able to with her - learning has been difficult. I stumbled upon your video this AM on my first search to find a way to practice again & I must say - I don’t believe in coincidences. 😉 Looking forward to this new journey & getting back to Castelcivita, Salerno and actually communicating WITH people! 💜🇮🇹
Thank you so much for this amazing message! We truly appreciate your positive energy, and we are glad you found us 😍 We will guide you, support you and help you to achieve your goals💪 Enjoy the mini-course and welcome to the Italy Made Easy Family 😊
I’ve been wanting to learn Italian so bad and I’m so glad I found your channel ❤ I already know Spanish so the vowels and pronunciation is very similar but I’m hoping I’ll be fluent in Italian 🥰
Sì, manu! New student! I'm a brazilian, and studied English alone, but I wanted to learn something else, and and you made me chose italian. I'm so glad I found you, you're very confident and I want to be your student for the next thirty days! Thank you for teaching us this beautiful language. Do you think I can learn from you? You said, learn Italian from your native language, but you seem better than anothers teaching. Note: I'm already bilingual, I understood everything you said.
Ciao Ana Paula and thank you for your nice words! Our approach is to teach Italian through English - with explanations in English and frequent comparison with English. So if you feel confident learning in English and you can understand our content without struggling - of course you are welcome on board! You'll see that knowing Portuguese will also be helpful to you - some words and structures are similar! 💪 Benvenuta 😍
I'm German, and it's easier for me to pronounce Italian than for English speakers, because German is also - mostly - a phonetic language. We use also a few Italian words in every day language (like "basta" a. o.). I also like to listen to Italian old songs, and understand from that quite a lot.
I’m Sicilian and I really want to learn Italian bc nobody in my family knows it except my grandpa and he never speaks it, thank you for making this series!
I’m so pleased I came across this video. I already speak Italian, having learnt it myself after marrying an Italian and moving to Italy many years ago. My grammar isn’t bad, but I hope to follow your course to improve. 🥰
Ciao Manu. I have been learning the Italian Language for several years and was always frustrated with my lack of comprehension of spoken Italian. I had heard of passive listening but gave it little credence. I tried it for one week with 3-4 hours per day listening to TG2000 Italian news. By the end of the week I was amazed by how much more I understood the conversation, the speed seemed to had slowed and I was able to pick out individual words far easier. since doing this my comprehension has increased 10 fold. This is one of the best tools I have found to help me on my journey to being a happy little Italian language learner.
Manu, amico mio! I’ve been watching, and loving, your older videos. I’m so happy to see current lessons. I love the way you teach. Never boring! Charming. I started learning Italian because I fell in love with Italian music and wanted to know the lyrics. Beautiful journey!! Grazie, Manu! Can’t wait to watch the new videos. Janice
You got me thinking about immersing myself in the language - I do Wordle in English every day, so thought I could try the Italian version. First one bombed out, but I've solved two now, and learnt some new Italian words in the process! Going to stick at it and increase my vocabulary.
Sì, Manu! I've always wanted to learn Italian and have picked up lessons here and there, but haven't dedicated myself. I want to make a true effort now and plan to start with these lessons to kick start it!

I find italian a little similar to spanish because both langages have the same meaning in a lot of words
That's true 💪🤓
@@italymadeeasy Because they are Romance languages:)
Because they’re both Latin based! That’s why they’re so similar
Kinda but no 😂
@@RedMichicompanies kinda but yes and no😆
I'm portuguese and after living in England for 20 years I never thought it would feel so good to hear vowels being pronounced correctly again.
I know! isnt it nice! I keep correcting people back in USA and they get mad at me. "We say it like this here"..but I say its Wrong!
Ainda bem que não sou a única portuguesa aqui :)

This pedagogy and how you explain it is just what I need, now, when learning a new language for fun for the first time after having a pretty negative learning experience with "immersion" and "tough love" during some immigrant language courses (not Italian or Italy). I'm Really looking forward to this! 🤩
As an American of Italian Origin, I feel almost compelled to learn the language. I've already learned a lot already thanks to you. Most of the Italian side of my family passed before I was born so I was not raised by them sadly.
thank you, Stephen! we are glad our resources are helping you learn your family language 🥰

As an Australian/Italian, with an Italian name, I need to learn Italian!
Si, Manu. I love Italian
Oh this is so exciting! I’m going to enjoy this series. 😊
Grazie, Manu! I recommend your channel to everyone I know who’s learning Italian. I come back to your lessons again and again. 🎉
Thank you Harry! 😃
Sì, Manu.
I love your energy!
I’ve been trying to learn this beautiful language for years, but I can’t get any further than simple vocabulary. I would love to be able to come up with my own sentences and express myself clearly.
Your channel looks amazing! I’m glad I found it!
Wonderful! Welcome on board, we will guide you and help you achieve your goals!
Si Manu
Si, Manu. I can't wait to learn Italian that I have unfortunately haven't succeed yet, so hopefully with these lessons I could master Italian🙃
Si Manu! I am so excited that I had to pause the video right there to put down a comment....I really hope this works. It's always been my dream to learn a wide range of languages and I hope I can learn Italian easily!! Thankyou Manu for teaching us!
Thank you for your kind comment! We are happy to have you here 🥰
This is the first channel i came across when looking into learning Italian and I'm so excited to get started! I will commit to give it my all and I'll give an update after the 30 days!
Welcome on board, Yvonne! We'll be waiting for your update!
We'll be waiting for your update of progress! Best of luck
Oh my goodness, I feel so understood!! Thank you so much Manu. You are such a genuine soul and just this one video has made me feel wonderful! I’ve wanted to learn Italian for years. I think now, with this, I might but able to ! I’m so so excited thank you so much Manu 💗
yes, Grace!! Love your enthusiasm 🤩 you are very welcome! 💕
Si, Mannu. I come from Indonesia and came across to your TH-cam channel about learning Italians. I can speak Dutch well and it is a phonetic language too. I am eager to learn this language after watching the landscape of Italy in Equalizer 3 and My House is in Umbria. Even though I am above 45, I try to catch up your lessons. Greetings from tropical country. Thank you
Sì, Manu! My Paternal Great Grandfather came to Chicago from Basilicata (near Potenza) but sadly, the language was not passed to me, although I did hear my grandparents speak Italian with neighbors from time to time. Therefore, English is my mother tongue. Now I am an Italian citizen by descent and trying to learn my father tongue! I am already at your 8th video in this series and I have learned more here than I have with Babbel and Rosetta Stone! I am going to continue to watch these videos and even replay them a few times as well as keep listening to Caffé Italiano con Manu, your podcasts and QVC Italia per your suggestions. I plan to visit Italy this summer for a few months and see what I can soak up during my time there. Once I get back and see what I have learned, I plan to become an official student! I am going to try and go all the way to C2 so that I can be more confident when I move to the EU a few years from now!
I started listening to your video to learn a word or two to give my mom’s friend some grief for not learning any Italian before moving to the country. But you have given me a blue print for leading any language! Honestly hats off to your quality education methods! 🎉
Thank you so much, we appreciate your amazing feedback, and we hope you will enjoy our mini-course! 😍
A Super interesting method. I will give it a try.
Si Manu.
Seeing your first lesson, and already started loving your way of teaching. Gracias ❤
🙏 grazie!
Si Manu. I have learned some in Italy but will look forward to learning more. 🙂
Sí, Manu! Starting this journey today and commiting!
This is so fascinating to me because my native language is Spanish. Thank you for giving us your precious time to teach us.
Glad you enjoyed this video! We are very happy to have you on board!
Thank you my friend, I am from England, but my dad is Italian and I have always wanted to learn. Thank you for teaching, and not forcing us to go back to school 😄
Grazie! It's a pleasure to help you guys, we are very happy and we hope you will enjoy our mini-course😍
😂😂😂😂😂
Si Manu! I have never been more motivated to learn a language! Thank you for you inspiration and continuous support
Molto bene 💪! Your motivation is inspiring and we are happy you are here 🩷
I’m Persian and I find Italian language very beautiful!
Oh my goodness I am so tickled that I found your channel. I’ve been wanting to learn how to speak Italian Italian for years now and hat. Try some other but it never stuck until now thank you so much. I can hardly wait to be fluent in Italian!
My dream is to some day live and n Italy 🇮🇹 ❤
I am taking these TH-cam videos and courses because I was discouraged in my Italian course for community college. You made it so much clearer for me than college 😭🙏 thank you !
we are sorry to hear you had a bad experience with learning Italian in college, but we are so happy to have you here studying with us now, Michelle 🥰
Viendo estas lecciones porque quiero aprender Italiano con todo mi corazón. Me gustó mucho la explicación de las vocales, ya que es igual en español. Seguiré con el resto de las lecciones. Muchas gracias ❤
When you mentioned immersion, I just think of all the Latin American kids in ESL programs in the United States, who will go to class and practice English but as soon as they are out of the classroom you will see them on campus talking to the same kids in class in Spanish which is ridiculous. I am born and raised in Brooklyn NY and my Spanish is somewhat fluent but I still struggle at times. I met a Colombian student at my University who was in a ESL program and he would complain that his classmates would never speak English, so he used our conversations as practice and I talked to him in Spanish to practice. Like you mentioned that its important to immerse yourself in the language, so I gave suggestions in music and films that he would enjoy in order to practice English.
sì, manu! I love the tip about thinking in your native tongue using Italian grammar, that’s such a great technique!!
🤗 thank you for being here, Basil!
I always wanted to learn Italian. But thought it was complicated..I just checked out QVC Italia, and was surprised how many words I actually understood. I'm German, and I think that might help since the vowels are pronounced the same. This seems like it'll be lots of fun. Thanks Manu.
Hooray! Someone finally said it - learning grammar in a foreign language is nonsense. It's often difficult even in your own language because it describes abstract concepts and patterns. Thank you. I'm yours.
Thank you for these lessons 💜 I'm learning Italian to close the language barrier between my boyfriend and I 🥰 He tries with English, but it can be difficult for him.
I'm intrigued!! I was very good in school, then lost it. It's my favourite language but I can't afford classes ☹️☹️, I don't like Duolingo, it has mistakes and makes you compete which puts me off. It's great that you give your time to do this for people like me, thank you ❤️
I’m about finished with Spanish 1 and Italian shares quite a lot of similarities with Spanish. Your explanations are very nice, thank you.
Im a somalian learning italian i love ur continet ❤❤
That's amazing! Thank you for following us! 🥰
Honestly, I like the Italian language very much. Italian actor Gabriel Garko also made me try to learn more.
Hi Manu, new student. I speak French, English and Spanish. I hope this combination will just make things a lil easier for me 😅. I’m actually very glad to have come across this, siento q tus cursos van a ayudarme mucho. Arrivederci 😁
Si, Manu
I work in an Italian company surrounded with Italians.
I secretly want to learn Italian, atleast the basics so that I can understand what they are speaking and one fine day give them a surprise of their life 😀
Ciao Raghav, we are very glad to help you with your new goal of learning the Italian language, stay tuned 🤓
Grazie Manu
I really appreciate ur work
Un metodo molto interessante per imparare l’italiano, bravo! Complimenti anche per il tuo inglese, di solito parlato da un madrelingua non lo capisco tutto, ma parlato da te è completamente comprensibile.
Going to Italy in August and you got me excited to learn your beautiful language. I pray I do it justice!! Thanks for the confidence booster!!☺
A confidence booster for you, Louise! A presto!😍
I’ve looked into a number of online Italian language learning sites and there are several good ones. But the approach and teaching style of Manu Venditti is exceptional. I’m relearning the beautiful Italian language after many years away from it and thanks to Manu it’s incredibly enjoyable.
Thanks for sharing this amazing feedback with us, it makes us feel honored ❤
Sí, Manu ! I am so ready and excited to learn your beautiful language ❤
Thanks Mr. Manu Venditti
Great content.
Learning italian is almost similar to learning Swahili. We also start by learning a, e, i, o, u as kids. Pronounciation of words is exactly as they are written.
So interesting, Michael! Grazie!😍
Is amazing how another language can open your mind,
And how many doors it can open, because in this moment I'm learning a third language thanks to my second language that is English, because my main language is Spanish. 😃
Another language can open your mind, so tre, Kevin!😍
Sì Manu!! This time i will not give up
Si,Manu. This will help a lot given I wanna learn different languages
I'm New student here, can't wait to learn more Italian I already speak Portuguese and some English also I can understand Spanish. I'm very excited to see how far I can get
Wow! Currently studying Italian GCSE in Britain (and hoping to do Italian A-Level) and this is definitely the best resource I’ve found by a mile!
bro your lucky we only have spanish gcse in my school
@@lucapagano7636 What nobody told me, when I was at school, is that anybody can take any GCSE they want. You don’t have to register for exams through a school or college. If you want to take GCSE Ancient Greek or GCSE Meteorology or GCSE engineering or whatever you are interested in, you simply register with an Examinations Board (there are several different ones) as a private candidate. If you want to take GCSE Italian, and your school does not offer that opportunity, simply take the exam as a private candidate.
Holy something. You just made me realize why I like Tommy Teleshoping if its in dutch. Its clean, easy and simple wording. Imight actually use this in my field of work. LOL
Thank you, Manu!
I'm a native English speaker married to a Venezuelan whose father emigrated to that country from the Campania region of Italy. I'm already near-native fluent in Spanish, but I'll be visiting my wife's extended family in Italy later this year for a month, so I need to learn (improve) my Italian, fast!
I very much agree with your methods for learning, and am happy to see your emphasis on learning grammar in one's native language (nothing infuriates me more than language training courses that de-emphasize grammar; one CANNOT learn to speak a language effectively without knowing the language's operating rules).
My biggest fear: Spanish and Italian are so close that I'll constantly confuse the two (my wife has this problem as well). Hopefully your course of instruction will be focused enough to help overcome this!
Looking forward to learning from you!
Can you help me to learn English?i from Egypt.
This is amazing! I have not yet started your course but we visited Italy in May & although I took 4 yrs of Italian many years ago & my Italian was very rusty & I felt so bad. My main problem was not being able to understand by HEARING a person speak. It was all so fast to me (normal to the speaker) & hard for my (now older-) brain to process! Listening to your intro here NAILED IT.
When learning Italian in almost any program we’re taught mainly just how to speak but not really listen. Actual communication requires *both*. I don’t understand how all of these courses don’t understand that & why is it so “controversial”. I’m so happy that you emphasize this. I’ve tried Babel & Rosetta Stone & although they’re nice for absolute basic learning, they’re not exactly geared for “older brains” & some older people like me, have some neurological delays when learning new languages because we’ve been naturally conditioned for 50+ years of our lives communicating in only one. I once had the benefit of being around my Nana & older great aunts who only spoke Italian together, so it made learning easy back then. But not hearing it regularly anymore, & not being able to speak it with anyone - like I was able to with her - learning has been difficult. I stumbled upon your video this AM on my first search to find a way to practice again & I must say - I don’t believe in coincidences. 😉 Looking forward to this new journey & getting back to Castelcivita, Salerno and actually communicating WITH people! 💜🇮🇹
Thank you so much for this amazing message! We truly appreciate your positive energy, and we are glad you found us 😍 We will guide you, support you and help you to achieve your goals💪 Enjoy the mini-course and welcome to the Italy Made Easy Family 😊
I’ve been wanting to learn Italian so bad and I’m so glad I found your channel ❤ I already know Spanish so the vowels and pronunciation is very similar but I’m hoping I’ll be fluent in Italian 🥰
Thank you for being here, Camila! Surely knowing Spanish will help you becoming fluent in Italian! ☺️
Si, Manu. Thank you!
Si Manu. Grazia Maestro
Sì, manu!
New student!
I'm a brazilian, and studied English alone, but I wanted to learn something else, and and you made me chose italian. I'm so glad I found you, you're very confident and I want to be your student for the next thirty days! Thank you for teaching us this beautiful language.
Do you think I can learn from you? You said, learn Italian from your native language, but you seem better than anothers teaching.
Note: I'm already bilingual, I understood everything you said.
Ciao Ana Paula and thank you for your nice words! Our approach is to teach Italian through English - with explanations in English and frequent comparison with English. So if you feel confident learning in English and you can understand our content without struggling - of course you are welcome on board! You'll see that knowing Portuguese will also be helpful to you - some words and structures are similar! 💪 Benvenuta 😍
Ciao @@italymadeeasy! Yes! I realized it is very similar. Thank you! Grazie mille!
I'm German, and it's easier for me to pronounce Italian than for English speakers, because German is also - mostly - a phonetic language. We use also a few Italian words in every day language (like "basta" a. o.). I also like to listen to Italian old songs, and understand from that quite a lot.
Thanks dear, I am exited, hope and believe I will do it. Thanks again
I really appreciate your efforts Manu. I am deliriously happy to be your student. Thank you.
We are glad to hear that! 🥰 Buona fortuna with this new journey!
I’m Sicilian and I really want to learn Italian bc nobody in my family knows it except my grandpa and he never speaks it, thank you for making this series!
It's a pleasure for us to help you to achieve your goal of learning the Italian language, stay tuned for more videos! 😍
I’m so pleased I came across this video. I already speak Italian, having learnt it myself after marrying an Italian and moving to Italy many years ago. My grammar isn’t bad, but I hope to follow your course to improve. 🥰
Wonderful! Thank you for being with us🤓
si,manu!andiamo!
I’m so excited to start!!
Ciao Manu. I have been learning the Italian Language for several years and was always frustrated with my lack of comprehension of spoken Italian. I had heard of passive listening but gave it little credence.
I tried it for one week with 3-4 hours per day listening to TG2000 Italian news. By the end of the week I was amazed by how much more I understood the conversation, the speed seemed to had slowed and I was able to pick out individual words far easier. since doing this my comprehension has increased 10 fold. This is one of the best tools I have found to help me on my journey to being a happy little Italian language learner.
Ciao Paul, congratulations 🎊 We are glad that you are everyday more improving your Italian, and with our help only the sky is the limit! Stay tuned 😍
Manu, amico mio! I’ve been watching, and loving, your older videos. I’m so happy to see current lessons. I love the way you teach. Never boring! Charming.
I started learning Italian because I fell in love with Italian music and wanted to know the lyrics. Beautiful journey!! Grazie, Manu! Can’t wait to watch the new videos. Janice
Thank you Janice for your amazing feedback. 🤗 We feel extremely happy to help you in learning Italian to reach your goals ❤
Si Mano,molte grazie.
Handsome
Thank you for taking the time to teach others Italian language! 💙✊🏽
I’m taking a class this semester and I’m a nervous wreck 😂!
Almost! 🥰 That's a very ancient one as well
Grazie di cuore Manu! Dopo quasi 6 anni, ancora studio tutti i giorni e questa informazione è proprio meraviglia! Un abbraccio!
Ciao Joe! Benvenuta, un abbraccio anche a te 😁
You got me thinking about immersing myself in the language - I do Wordle in English every day, so thought I could try the Italian version. First one bombed out, but I've solved two now, and learnt some new Italian words in the process! Going to stick at it and increase my vocabulary.
Fantastico! Keep it up 🔥👏🌟
I love your teaching methods 👍👍
Si Manu! I am committed!
Sì, Manu! I've always wanted to learn Italian and have picked up lessons here and there, but haven't dedicated myself. I want to make a true effort now and plan to start with these lessons to kick start it!
Ciao! You can do it! We will be here to guide you and incite you in learning the Italian language, stay tuned❤
Thank you so much. I now live in Italy and am so grateful for your lessons these next 30 days.
Ciao Cathy, we are extremely happy to help you 😁 thank you for your support and trust!
I just realized Italian vowels are very similar to Shona vowels including pronunciation to an extent
I hope this makes the learning process easier ‼️
