This course is well-organized into digestible chunks - so it's never overwhelming but just enough content in the module to learn and retain the lesson. The exercises are excellent to reinforce learning! I appreciate that lesson transcripts are included and offers great tips for remembering rules.
I just love the structure of the course and like that Michele is in the videos so it has more of a classroom feel!
This course has improved my speaking skills, especially with the use of reflexive verbs, as well as a better understanding of possessive pronouns and adjectives. Highly recommend this program if you are looking to learn Italian!

I am so happy to be learning Italian through your Intrepid program. The fact that I can go at my own pace, always review and look back at each and every course is so helpful to my study. I started with your 30-day challenge and was hooked on your teaching method. It's exactly what I was looking for and the best way for me to learn!
I am continuously studying, listening and reviewing your courses (you know...because I'm hooked!). Each time, there is something new that I hear or read.

I started my quest in learning Italian through a well-known language app. After a year of trying to learn tangible skills on this game platform, I realized I needed to step it up and get serious. Luckily I found Michele and I was drawn to her teaching style. Her videos had a positive energy and exuded such passion for the language. I had to experience more so I purchased the A1, A2, B1 plus the Italian for Travel courses.
I love that the modules are arranged in easily digestible amounts. I have the flexibility to devour a lesson when it fits into my schedule rather than the commitment of a weekly in person lesson.
I was able to test out some of my newfound knowledge recently in Italy. The ability to communicate with locals gave me the extra boost to keep forging ahead!
I love that Michele's technique focuses on what you really need to know (80/20 method!) rather than obscure vocabulary you might never need to use.
The level of communication from Michele is amazing. She's truly invested in her student's success with learning Italian. I think Michele has found her calling in teaching and empowering others. I am grateful to have found Michele and this program!

I have found taking language courses from Michele a rewarding and enjoyable experience, which I would recommend to anyone without hesitation. For myself, my Italian has improved from near zero to where I can now carry on basic conversations.
Michele does an excellent job of breaking the material down so you study only what you need to without wasted effort. If you are serious about a language, or just curious, taking Michele’s course is a decision you will not regret.
- Marty, Ontario, Canada
Michele is more than just the guide behind this course, she is a natural teacher and passionate language learner who cares deeply about her students and sharing the Italian language. This shines through as she walks you through learning Italian basics, in small, bite-sized steps.
It’s easy to get overwhelmed by learning a new language. But, Intrepid Italian’s short, simple lessons (that include videos, exercises, tips and printables) build on one another, giving you invaluable confidence and momentum.
- Sara, Washington, USA
I found renewed interest and passion in the Italian language when I found Intrepid Italian because of the way Michele presents the course in manageable modules and her upbeat way of presenting. I'm able to pick up and learn in a way that fits with my lifestyle. Before starting with Michele I was quite lost in the many different ways of learning I had tried and had no real direction or success. I put my inability to learn down to my “senior” stage of life but with Intrepid Italian it seems to just fit. Each new module inspires me to continue.

Having visited Italy 4 times and still not feeling confident in my grasp of the Italian language, I decided to try a different approach. I found Michele’s course on the web, and decided to try it.
There are so many things I liked about this course. Michele’s accent and voice is pleasing, each section was short enough I felt like I could commit to daily learning. I really like the downloadable guides as well as the recorded conversations as both full and from different perspectives of the actors. Unlike other travel apps, her course taught me practical words and phrases. Apps I have used before teach useless words such as the Italian word for whale!
I now have a newfound understanding and confidence in communicating in Italian. I have a much better understanding of grammar and the proper use of the language.
- Rick, South Carolina, USA
Loved it, loved it, loved it. I’ve been trying to learn languages using various language learning apps for years now and although I know random words I feel no more confident in actually speaking the languages than I was when I started.
I’m 5 days into this course and feeling more confident in actually speaking Italian than I am while using the apps.
This course cuts through all the unnecessary stuff the apps were teaching me and focuses on getting me comfortable and confident to put my new-found Italian to use.
The audio and worksheets are my favourite as it gets me to speak and write which is definitely speeding up the learning process for me.
I cannot recommend this course highly enough. Definitely worth every penny.
Thank you Michele.
I can’t wait for my next trip to Italy.

I really enjoyed the Master Italian for Travel FAST course, it certainly exceeded my expectations. The learning methodology is great, and easy to follow and found that I progressed much faster in the last 4 weeks than I ever did on my own or using other language apps. Grazie mille Michele, I can't wait until I can put my new skills into action!
- Roma, London, UK
Michele’s course is the best! I can't even count how many other courses I've tried, as I'm sure, we all have. For me, Michele’s course is simply the best and Michele’s additional videos are invaluable.
The course is the perfect combination of, starting off with the simple phrases and easy sentence structure you need to get by on a visit to Italy, along with the formal instruction to fully learn Italian.
Having just returned from our first trip to Rome, just knowing the simple phrases Michele teaches just to make yourself understood was extremely helpful! I honestly used EVERYTHING I learned! I am now even more inspired to stay with the Intrepid Italian Guide to really master Italian! Grazie, Michele!
- Billy, New Jersey, USA
The course improved my confidence to try out simple phrases and decreased my fear of making mistakes. Even though I "completed" the course in 14 days, I still practice the role-playing scripts for everyday situations. I feel like I will get a lot more out of being in Italy even for a short time now that I have the basic structure of the language and simple phrases to use. I am looking forward to being able to communicate like an Italiano on my trip. Grazie mille!

Michele’s "Master Italian for Travel FAST" course has helped to reignite my interest in learning the Italian language.
The course was easy to navigate, comprehensive and accommodating to my learning needs.
I found the real-time feedback provided by each module's quiz to be useful and appreciated the course's variety of learning resources available.
I can't wait to put into practice the phrases I've learnt when I'm next in Italy ... and who knows, perhaps be mistaken for a local!
- Mark Anania. Melbourne, Australia
I'm so happy I took this course. I've spent years feeling badly about forgetting the Italian I learned and never reaching fluency. I love learning with Michele. I love that she isn't a native Italian speaker.
I would argue that she makes a better teacher because she had to learn just the same way I have to learn. And she is confident enough to provide native Italian speakers in the course so you don't have to worry that you are not hearing the language the way Italians speak it. You make it easy to be successful.

Learning a language is never easy. The Intrepid Guide Italian Language Course has me speaking Italian in a few short modules. Combining written work, video and audio mastering Italian easily and perfecting my accent without even thinking about it.
The Facebook group and Facebook live are perfect to help if you have any difficulties. There are quizzes to mark your progress and help you consolidate what you have learnt.
The perfect course for a beginner or anyone who wants to improve their written and spoken Italian.
- Larch. Scotland, UK
I was instantly surprised by how brilliant this course is! The content is presented in an easy to follow lesson style format, whilst not being too much content for even a 10 minute session.
Michele really has made things very methodical and she covers the information and details you need, really well. She’s found a way to make even grammar and sentence structure appealing! I love the pronunciation videos, and how well things are broken down into manageable chunks, and that I was learning things immediately.
The course is also extremely professional looking, with aesthetically pleasing graphics and beautiful cheat sheets that will be so practical on future travels.
This course has been a brilliant present to myself! I would definitely recommend it!

The Intrepid Italian: Master Italian for Travel Fast! Course was perfect for quickly giving me more confidence in my ability to communicate important travel basics. The course was simple to follow and incredibly effective. I am well equipped for my next adventure to Italy thanks to Michele and this course.
- Chris, California, USA
The program was more useful than the 6 week course I took at my local adult school…which was twice the price. Thanks for a wonderful program! Your clear lectures, practical info, and infectious enthusiasm have been delightful.
- Marla, California, USA
Thanks for the easy to follow, stepped plan to learning the language. Communicating with the locals was like opening a door to something I feel I have been missing out on.

Michele's course will get you using your Italian quickly without having to memorize rules. She's got your back for the most important ones like pronunciation and gender, and after reviewing a few straightforward explanations you're ready to learn super practical phrases and words that are designed to make your trip to Italy infinitely easier.

I've been following Michele for a number of years, and her method to learning languages is practical and efficient, in a non-overwhelming way. I especially like the conversational segments, where theory is truly turned into practice and converted to language you will actually use and hear when travelling.
