The flagship course, L'Italiano (often sold as Italian with Ease in English-speaking markets), contains roughly 100 to 113 lessons depending on the edition.

• The Passive Phase (Weeks 1–7): You listen to the audio while reading the foreign text and translation. Your only job is to familiarize yourself with the rhythm and intonation of Italian.
