I beg to differ.
Fluenz does a great deal without overemphasizing a huge vocab. It is about knowing how to use the words you do know well. Each module seems to accelerate in what you can do with the language and by the third it starts to get pretty impressive.
I've finished the fifth course and I am totally convinced that this method works well.
Stick with it!

I have studied Italian before and am using Fluenz as a 'refresher'. I have to say that although Level 1 is basic and at times I wished there had been a few more words introduced, I found I learnt a thing or two that I had never known/realised or properly understood before and so in that way alone, level 1 has been worth doing. I find the building block approach Fluenz is using works well for me, i.e. get a few things under your belt, then add a few more etc. I am in the middle of Level 2 at the moment and have noticed things have become a little more 'substantial', and this can only continue, so it is worth persevering.

There is a significant difference between levels 1 and 2 and those that follow. I am nearly through level 3 and I find it to be quite challenging and I have previewed level 4 and I find it to be the same. I agree with Brand in that I can carry on simple conversation and be understood, which is really why one learns a language in the first place.

I just started my first session in Italian 1 and I personally felt like Fluenz teaching method gave me a good push.
