Foreign Service Institute Italian FAST Course

Table of Contents: Volume 1

For fastest downloading, use the DownThemAll add-on for Firefox. This will allow you to download all of the mp3s on this page at once and increase the download speed up to 400%. Otherwise, you can download each mp3 individually by right-clicking on and choosing Save As... Clicking on will open a new window of Italian to English and English to Italian audio flashcards, while will open a new window of listening exercises. Please note that I have not included everything from the original course. I am mostly focusing on the audio portion so I have omitted the written and classroom exercises, as well as moved the cultural information to the end of each lesson.
