8 Missions. Real Situations. Italian With a Purpose.

Traditional study often begins with rules and vocabulary.

Italian for Travel: Alex Goes to Italy begins with a situation.

Each mission gives you a communication goal and helps you discover the Italian needed to achieve it:

Enter the situation
Understand what is happening
Learn the useful language
Complete the mission

This approach helps you connect words with meaning and action—so the Italian you learn becomes easier to remember and more useful during a real trip.

Listen. Repeat. Remember.

The book includes 79 reusable language patterns that are easy to memorize and adapt to different travel situations.

The over 300 downloadable audio tracks, playable at normal or slower speed, help you recognize pronunciation, rhythm and intonation while developing your listening comprehension at your own pace.

Created From Real Teaching Experience

The book is written by an Italian professor of Italian language, culture, history, and literature based in the United States.

Because he works directly with American students, the learning experience addresses the difficulties English speakers commonly face instead of offering generic instruction.

This book is for beginners who want to:

learn practical travel Italian;
understand when and how expressions are used;
prepare for everyday interactions;
study with a clear objective.

If you want more than another list of phrases, choose a method that makes you use Italian with a purpose.

Complete the 8 missions. Prepare for the situations. Travel ready.
