Natural Speech Rate

By listening to the course, you will be able to understand how natives speak, in a very short time.

Happily, this course is going to perfectly balance the two, most important aspects of learning a new language.

You will be exposed to simplified material, so you can slowly learn and understand the language, and you will be able to speak with natives.

Even though it’s so simple, it’s real! Meaning that after the course, you will be able to have real conversations, with real Italian people.

Get used to real pronunciation

Although this is a real problem, not many people thought about it when making Italian courses.

Most times, beginners are provided with very slow courses that don’t really give them any real value.

In podcasts or more advanced courses, they speak too fast, making it impossible to understand.

After all this, it’s natural that most people will just give up.

The speech rate is perfectly balanced: it still sounds natural, but it’s slow enough to understand everything!

Luckily, Ripeti Con Me was made for you! It’s the best course you can take in order to learn how to speak and do it fearlessly!

Spaced repetition

Spaced repetition is commonly used in the very best courses out there. It refers to repeating the content after longer and longer time intervals.

In Ripeti Con Me, this is exactly what you will do. Everything follows a set schedule, and you won’t even realize when you learn something new.

Over the many lessons, you will hear the same words repeated in different contexts.

In time, you will get accustomed to all the words and phrases and will start using them naturally.

Because grammar is important too, you will hear it intensively, but without overwhelming you.

This is not just memorizing. This is a new and improved way of learning!

Learn vocabulary and grammar naturally

No one likes to spend hours practicing the same concepts, so the lessons in Ripeti Con Me are quite interactive.

Instead of you having to memorize everything after the lessons, this course makes sure you practice grammar and vocabulary so that the concepts actually stick with you!

There’s a very good balance between repetition and variety.

You won’t get the chance to get bored, but at the same time, you will learn every single concept present in the course. You get to focus on what you really need and want to learn.

Focus on audio over text

Something you should know is that we’re made to learn languages by listening and repeating.

Sometimes, the only choice we have is to listen to the language, and then try to speak it ourselves.

As a fact, there are over 7000 languages in the world, but only about 200 have standard writing systems.

This means that others only have verbal communication, so it may definitely be a challenge!

And to be completely fair, only a small part of the Chinese people actually mastered the writing system.

And they can have their daily lives without actually needing it, and it’s possible for any language!

Bypass your native language

One big mistake people do when learning a new language is learning how to spell the alphabet.

Learning a language this way can be incredibly confusing, and a lot harder to achieve.

This happens because your brain will process the spelling and writing differently.

Especially when you see a character present in your native language, your brain will just process it the way you’re used to.

By learning Italian directly with sounds, you will get way past that issue.

Even though the course comes with a booklet, you’re only supposed to look at it after each lesson.

By the end, you’ll speak directly in Italian!

Focus on useful vocabulary

It’s important that a course focuses on the most frequent words used in a language.

Although you may be excited to learn the 1000 most common Italian words, you still need to use them in the right context with Ripeti Con Me.

The vocabulary in this course will help you learn Italian:

To travel to Italy
To chat with the locals
To express your opinion

Happily, only about 300 words and phrases will help you understand 65% of a normal Italian conversation.

This means introducing yourself, ordering food, checking into your hotel or airport, and sharing opinions with the locals.

Amusingly enough, you will also get a lesson about Italian swear words.

Grammar tree + Real-life expressions

In the process of learning the language, you will go through all the required steps.

You will learn to speak Italian the way Italians do. Starting with the present, and then moving on to other tenses.

Apparently random sentences throughout the course follow a very smart plan.

For each lesson of Ripeti Con Me, you will also find a post about Italian grammar.

This way, you will quickly learn everything you need to know in order to speak Italian like a native, with real-life expressions.

Learn to think in Italian by trial and error

In most cases, when someone starts learning a new language, they will translate the sentences before saying them.

Needless to say, that is wrong. And this is why this course is so great. Instead of translating everything in your head, you will actually think and say it in Italian effortlessly.

While in a normal class you start by learning the specifics in your language, this course immerses you immediately in this new, amazing world of Italian.

You will get to practice speaking all the time, without being overwhelmed.

Designed for the Italian language

Most language courses are just adaptations of the same script, generally good for all the languages in this world.

Ripeti Con Me is different. It focuses on Italy, its culture, geography, and people.

All the situations in this course are exactly what you’d find on a trip to Italy. The names, the places, and the phrases used are all coming from a native.

The purpose is to get you accustomed to the language and country, not just mechanically repeating what you learn.

Italian audio lessons that are easy to use

Spaced repetition can be overwhelming for the student if not done properly.

And to be fair, no one likes a long list of words they have to memorize and forget the day after.

With Ripeti Con Me, all you need to do is press “play” and listen to the course.

You can always look at the booklet if you need any help, and if you can’t understand a lesson right away, give it a day. The information will settle and you will be able to move to the next one!

It’s easy, and everyone can do it!

Stay motivated

Learning a new language requires you to form a habit.

By taking 30 minutes every day for practice, you will see much faster and better results than if you practiced for 4 hours once a week.

With this course, you will stay motivated, and engage in the 20-minute daily lessons.

It’s not like a self-paced app where you can get distracted after five minutes. It helps you form this new habit of learning!

Just press play and the information will definitely start sticking to your head!

Learning a language is like doing sports. You need to practice often, ideally on a daily basis.
