Teach Yourself Improve your Italian is the ideal way to extend your language skills if you already have some knowledge of Italian. Whether you’ve completed Teach Yourself Italian or any other beginners’ Italian course, either by yourself or at evening class, you will find this the perfect course for building on your existing knowledge and improving your spoken and written language.

The choice of material aims to give you something of the flavour of Italy today and each unit is based around a single theme with lively interviews and conversations on the accompanying recording. The units are divided up into sessions – manageable chunks that will help you to organize your learning – and there are tips on language learning throughout. There are activities based on the interviews and texts to help you remember what you’ve learnt and put your knowledge into practice.

The accompanying CDs are available separately or in a pack with the book.
