I just started using the Rocket Language Italian course and I am extremely pleased so far. I've tried Pimsleur in the past - which I enjoyed but it lacked the cultural and grammatical explanations necessary for successful learning. In addition, the combination of the audio lessons and testing pages makes Rocket Language the most complete language learning tool I've tried. In addition to the actual course the customer service is wonderful. Specifically, Aeysha was extremely helpful when I was ordering the all three courses and answered all of questions.
Rocket Italian is the best application for learning Italian; great dialogue and practice exercises reinforce learning in an enjoyable format
It's all in all a nice way to learn a language, I'm currently in the trial for Italian and Japanese as those are the 2 languages that I am currently learning. It would be even better if the app would not always crash when trying to do the flashcards.
Besides that I am happy with what this program offers.
Response from Rocket Languages
Hi Markus - I believe an update is due out to fix that FlashCard issue!
I highly recommend Rocket! This program is super engaging and covers all the bases of learning a new language. I'm just finishing up Level 1 of Rocket Italian and have already learned so much.
Although it took me a whole year to get into a habit of using it, I am finally practicing regularly and progressing faster (lockdown meant no more excuses!).
I realized after some time that the timezone was probably set by default to the USA and I couldn't understand why I kept losing my streak even though I was practicing daily. This was initially de-motivating until I discovered I could change my settings very easily and changed the country to New Zealand.
The exercises are well designed to cover the key language areas and I find the system helps cement vocabulary really well. More quiz questions per lesson would be welcome and maybe more diversity of exercise type!
I believe app learning is a good way to get initial exposure to a new language and get a basic foundation in order to sign up to a class with other humans or take a trip overseas. I am confident that after a year of regular Rocket Italian I might be able to go for a level assessment at a language institute and skip the basic levels. I'm very happy with my purchase - it was a good investment and is worth every cent.
Why do I want to learn Italian??
I asked my self so many times that question and didn't figure it out .
Finally I realized that I love that language so much and can never get it out of my head .
Rocket Italian was helpful for me, especially with that wonderful woman ( Maria Dilorenzi ) .
After all .... thanks to all your Team, specially my best teacher (Maria) .
Your Faithfully, Kareem .
I love the way lessons are broken down into manageable chunks. Also with the main focus being on spoken Italian in everyday useful situations rather than flash cards telling you the cat has a spoon! The customer support is brilliant too.
I like the way that you go over the same thing in different ways which helps to fix the concept in your mind. I have studied Italian and spent some time there over the years and am using Rocket Italian as a refresher.
The best language program I've come across. It has everything: speaking, writing, listening, notes, grammar, culture and multiple tests to check whether the lesson is understood. Very complete. I have recommended it to several people.
Incredibly fitted to the needs of one who have a base knowledge in Italian and wants to improve his speaking skills
