I've been searching for a good intermediate Italian channels for ages -- and without much success. Your videos are superb: extremely well laid out, logical to follow, and highly instructive. Your explanation of direct object pronouns is excellent. You are a gifted teacher Tom. Many thanks.
My current Italian professor likes to only teach in Italian, so to hear it explained in English is extremely helpful!! Thanks for helping me pass my exams!
Madeline Nielsen what is flash cards and I wan to have conversations ....it helps me good .....don't worry I'm a just a boy.....don't think know wrong niether I won't bother u really .trust me
I'm learning italian and it's incredible how you make italian grammar so easy to understand; even I can understand more with your videos than I do with some Spanish speaker teachers ( btw my native language is Spanish -_-) so thank you very much for these videos!!!! Grazie mille!
I've been learning Italian for years and I just had two HUGE ah-ha moments while watching your videos. These two concepts I'd never understood and no teacher had ever explained are now cleared up! Really cool. Thanks!
Same here, I loved that the examples are written down in the complete form and then in the way that it is used, I can make assumptions in my head while he's explaining and check it out seconds later if I did understood.
Veramente sei molto bravo 👏🏻 mi piace tanto il tuo inglese e certamente il metodo come hai spiegato,grazie di cuore,ho cercato e guardato tanti video ma non ho trovato nessun video utile. Grazie a te ho capito tutto 💜
Hi Tom. You are a legend. Love your videos. As a teacher myself, I can say that you certainly are a natural teacher. Keep up the good work and thank you.
I've struggled for so long with the objects pronoun part on Duolingo without properly getting the hang of it. Then I stumbled onto your videos and have had a true hallelujah moment! Thanks ever so much! Grazie mille and greetings from Finland, Tom!
I'm italian and i'm trying to get a better understanding of spoken english. I really like your english, if everyone speak like you, my life would be easier :).
This is fabulous. I have been leaning Italian for a long time now & these pronouns have been really difficult for me. Your explanations are just what I need. Mille grazie!
Tom these are great videos. I am learning Italian and your everyday words (previous video) and this one on direct object pronouns which reminded me of some grammar rules I forgot are a great help Thank you
I didn’t quite get what my teacher taught me for this particular grammar so I came to UA-cam looking for help. This guy explained it really well and now I can get back to my exercise book and finish what I couldn’t earlier. Thank you so much. Obviously I will be a regular viewer from now on. subscribed!!! Grazie mille!!!
Great job Tom, i have begun learn italian 2 weeks ago and i really surprise how far i can go on this topic, you have got large contribution in my learning process, I'm working in Italian company and i've decided to learn and show my new italian skills, Thx bro, Greetings from Poland
This topic is crazy. THANK God for Tom. I would have been crying and thought I was punished with this topic. These little pronouns are so insignificant but you made it so simple. I bought your study pack and so worth it !!! Grazie !!!
BOOM! Once again filling in those DuoLingo gaps. I noticed that past tenses with avere were agreeing when used with Pronouns, but here's the much-needed explanation. Thanks again.
HI Tom, this is really handy.... studying Italian but all the teaching is in Italian and all your questions have to be in Italian-which I can handle but if you want to ask a fairly nuanced grammar question it ends up like the song "There's a hole in my bucket...". Excellent and am sending a link to the rest of the class. Thanks Stefan
Tom I have been lost in translation for quite a while... but now I have seen your video and things are much more clear. A big thanks to you. I will be following you from now on... :-)
Excellent Tom, I have to watch it again...have to repeat and repeat again....it don't come easy! I swear if I lived in Italy I would have this down by now...give me 6 months. It's tough when you have no one to bounce off in daily life. But I forge ahead. :)
Although I have a basic of Spanish and Portuguese is my mother tongue, I must confess that Italian is still really hard for me, other than a little weird, but I really love Italian language. It's the most beautiful Latin language in my point of view. I still wanna improve my knowledge of Italian, despite of I don't know if I will be fluent in Italian one day. Excellent video!
you are the best. The best Italian teacher. I am brazilian and I am tryung to learnig italian so at the same time I'm learning italian I am practicing my english listening. Confrats you're great.
Thank you Tom these are great refreshers, I really enjoy grammar and you explain it so simply and succinctly. It’s not difficult to look at or listen to you either, so double win.
Hi Tom... I just wanted to tell you how helpfull are your videos and to encourage you to keep up the good work you're doing... I'm from México and I've been learning english for a long period of time (on and off though), so what I'm also trying to say is that I keep learning english while learning Italian.. that's why I think your work is great... Let's see if later I can catch up with you in the French language.. take care man! and once again congrats.
I just found your Channel and I already love it! You do such a great Job explaining things in a way, everyone can follow. Thats's what I need now to really push my italian! Thank you and greets from Germany!:)
Thank you again Tom! I have found direct objects quite tricky but your video has really helped. I'll probably watch it a few more times and take notes as well. I really like the written examples on the screen too. Wonderful! Ali x
Such a great explanation, thank you so much!!! I've learned a lot from your videos, I mean both Italian and English. Keep up the brilliant work Tom! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I'm learning Italian thanks to you. My boyfriend is Italian and says it's the English people who write the wrong way not the other way round.... Anyway bravo for the good teaching skills , following your lessons.
Tom, I find all your videos so helpful, but especially this one. I was having a problem with understanding the compound verb tenses and this was so well explained. Grazie
Actually I don't have a plan to learn Italian. But when I watched your video, you made me wanna learn. Keep doing! Thanks alot for your awesome videos :D
Great job for me here sir. I have now learned how and what all those crazy looking two letter words mean. This will help take my learning up to a much higher level faster. Thanks a ton. These and verbs are my main interest at the moment. I figure if I understand these and also pronomi, I can read a lot of Italian subtitles and understand much more.
Hello. This was super clear. I think it would be great if you asked the viewers questions to get them actively using what you're teaching. But really good work
Dear Mr. Tom, I am so happy to see this video and it is very easy way for me to grab things from video like this rather than reading materials. I would like to see video that explain "Ci'' Application. I think "Ci" has lot to discuss Isn't It? And also video that explains how to give direction in Italian. By the way, I must thank you for doing wonderful job in these videos simply because all of them have been done very professional way. Cheers!! Vinod
I'm trying to watch your videos and understand because i just speak spanish but a little of english that's fun because i am learning italian in english but baby thank you for ur time
Thank you very much , i just saw your video for first time & i became able to know the direct object pronouns , it has been very confusing to me but now it's not anymore :)
Tom, great video, thank you. I wanted to comment in another video but forgot - can you please do some videos using ci; da vs di. These are my grammatical difficulties. Grazie mille!
Thanks at least now I have understood because before I felt it is hard to undearstand. Continue to help us through this video for I am still a student.
I'm a little bit confused with this video. Where does the word "visto" comes from? Based on your explanation about passato prossimo, "vedere" should change to "veduto". Or is it an irregular verb?
Grazie tanto, Tom. Sono molto contenta. I have just found your site which has,finally, provided the solution to a problem which I found very difficult and which I thought I would never understand. Your explanations are so clear and useful. Eccellente! Ancora una volta, grazie mille. Jacqueline
I've been learning Italian for about 6 days now and this video is a bit overwhelming. lol Don't get me wrong, all your videos are great and you're teaching me a lot, but I think I better just learn like a baby learns their mother tongue. I'm of course Italian, but we never spoke it in my family. I've wanted to learn my whole life and now with my operatic studies, I must learn it! Not to mention French and German! Do you have any great tips for me? Have you made a "tips" video for beginners? I'm using Rosette Stone, listening to Rai radio, watching Rai TV, and reading in Italian. And of course, watching your videos. Keep the videos coming. ciao PS Wish me "In bocca al lupo" as I continue this journey.

Yes. Me too. The other one for me was reflexive pronouns
Same here, I loved that the examples are written down in the complete form and then in the way that it is used, I can make assumptions in my head while he's explaining and check it out seconds later if I did understood.

Thank you and Congrats for your excellent way of teaching.
So late I came to know your lessons.
Hope to pick up
And . . . your explanation for direct objects with passato prossimo . . . super
Keep going, Tom! Fantastic lectures! It helped me tremendously!
Very good, a confusing topic explained clearly and concisely. Grazie mille.
I really like your teaching especially your tongue of the English and the Italian bravo
Your english and italian are both awesome!!!!!!
Just a little correction. "Lo" and "L'ho" do not sound the same. "Lo" has a narrow "o" sound, whereas "ho" has a broad vowel sound.
Dear Mr. Tom, I am so happy to see this video and it is very easy way for me to grab things from video like this rather than reading materials. I would like to see video that explain "Ci'' Application. I think "Ci" has lot to discuss Isn't It? And also video that explains how to give direction in Italian.

It's really a great job you're doing. Grazie mille. I speak French and it's pretty much like French language.

This is so so helpful! I may or may not be using your videos to cram for my oral exam in Ita 201. I'm curious though, how did you learn Italian?
Tom, great video, thank you. I wanted to comment in another video but forgot - can you please do some videos using ci; da vs di. These are my grammatical difficulties. Grazie mille!
Thanks at least now I have understood because before I felt it is hard to undearstand. Continue to help us through this video for I am still a student.
Great refresher video! I had forgotten most of this info 😱😱
Mi piace il tuo video! I am just at the beginning of my way to learn Italian and found your videos extremely helpful!
I'm a little bit confused with this video. Where does the word "visto" comes from? Based on your explanation about passato prossimo, "vedere" should change to "veduto". Or is it an irregular verb?
Ahhhhhh, your videos are so super helpful!
Mille grazie!
You are always my great Italian teacher ♥️
hard to remeber that sentance construction. Thank You for understanding I am beginner in italian
Grazie tanto, Tom. Sono molto contenta. I have just found your site which has,finally, provided the solution to a problem which I found very difficult and which I thought I would never understand. Your explanations are so clear and useful. Eccellente! Ancora una volta, grazie mille. Jacqueline
Thank you. Very helpful.
you are my best friend right now! was trying to figure out Duolingo's clitics section and these pronouns had me a bit confused for a bit.
No other like you to teach man! keep it up!
This is amazing! Saving me for my italian class, grazie mile!!
Bravissimo. Grazie mille. You're simply wonderful. Dio ti benedica
Now I am thinking forwarding you complete syllabus guideline hoping you can spare time for entire course content.
I've been learning Italian for about 6 days now and this video is a bit overwhelming. lol Don't get me wrong, all your videos are great and you're teaching me a lot, but I think I better just learn like a baby learns their mother tongue. I'm of course Italian, but we never spoke it in my family. I've wanted to learn my whole life and now with my operatic studies, I must learn it! Not to mention French and German!
Do you have any great tips for me? Have you made a "tips" video for beginners? I'm using Rosette Stone, listening to Rai radio, watching Rai TV, and reading in Italian. And of course, watching your videos.
Keep the videos coming.
ciao
PS Wish me "In bocca al lupo" as I continue this journey.
