  • Resumen

  • Are you ready to supercharge your Italian listening comprehension? Our podcast is the perfect tool for you.

    Studies show that the key to mastering a second language is through repetition and active processing. That's why each episode of our podcast features a story in Italian, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Italian and English.

    This approach not only allows you to fully understand and absorb the vocabulary and grammar but also provides a bilingual support to aid your listening comprehension.

    But we don't stop there. Research in sociolinguistics highlights the importance of culture in language learning, which is why we provide a list of vocabulary words and a transcript of the audio to help you understand the cultural context of the story. And for your convenience, we also include a transcript of the audio to help you refer back to any parts you may have struggled with.

    And our podcast is not just for language learners, it's also for travelers or people who wants to connect with their roots. Are you planning a trip to Tuscany, Sicily, or Lombardy? Maybe you want to speak Italian with your nonna from Rome? Our podcast will give you the cultural and linguistic background to fully immerse in the regions of Italy.

    Our podcast is based on the latest research in linguistics, sociolinguistics, psychology, cognitive science, neuroscience, and education to provide the most effective method for mastering Italian listening comprehension. Don't miss this opportunity, give our podcast a try and see the results for yourself.
