Recommended Reading
here is no perfect grammar of Italian and hopefully one day I will write one.
I recommend the 550 Italian verb book by McGaw-Hill. It is the best investment you can do as verbs are the motor of most sentences.
www.wordreference.com is a great online dictionary and can help you find vocabulary,phrases and even conjugated verbs.
For beginners, short stories with parallel texts are a good choice and for more advanced students, I recommend Vittorini (Conversazione in Sicilia) and Ginzburg (Le voci della sera or any short stories) and for the xtra advanced ones "La Storia" by Elsa Morante.
Finally, www.repubblica.it, www.lastampa.it, and www.corrieredellasera.it have plenty of material to keep you going, including multimedia in which you can hear interviews and flash news.
www.rai3.it is a great listening tool
Best of all: read anything and ask yourself questions, then of course ask me.
