Tying in with a BBC 2 series, this is the second stage of a multimedia language course for beginners learning Italian. Following on from the format of the first stage, it takes learners further and consolidates their skills in the language. The material is full of authentic dialogues recorded throughout Italy and offers practice material, grammar reviews, self-check material and cultural information for both the self-study learner and the classroom student. Corresponding cassettes, a CD pack and a teacher's book are also available.
