FSI Italian FAST Volume 1

The Italian Familiarization and Short-term Training Course (FAST) consists of thirty lessons that have been prepared with accompanying tape recordings. Designed for use with an Italian instructor, the course has as its main objective to enable students to develop language skills considered basic and useful in Italy. Instead of a structured, grammatically-sequenced set of lessons, the course stresses communication in everyday practical situations of a social, logistical and workplace nature.

Students are urged to use whatever language they have at their disposal without being unduly preoccupied with grammatical accuracy. They should make this effort even in situations in which they are exposed to practical language considerably above their level. They should remember that they must learn to cope with such language but not reproduce it.
