Find out what actual users have to say about our courses through their Rocket Italian reviews.
Rocket Italian is well designed to help develop both conversational Italian and an understanding of grammar and syntax. My only complaint is that the software sometimes has glitches as it speaks or listens, and doesn't always hear what you say, even when you're saying it correctly. I have tested this both with computer mic and speakers, and with headphones and dedicated lavalier mic.

I'm really satisfied and enjoying this course. It is helping me with pronunciations which can be very challenging.
Great to get me back to learning, easy to follow instructions.
Exceeded my expectations. Thank you. I do highly recommend Rocket. It was easy to use and quite fun. The site is user friendly, so no hang ups. I did customize settings for my prefferences, which is a terrific feature. Like when the system was speaking too fast, I simply slowed it to 3/4 speed. Ottimo lavoro!
The sexism is very irritating--the male character constantly sexualizes his Italian co-host.
It would be helpful to be able to fast forward/ be able to review the lessons --the ratio of chitchat to content is off. Less of Alessandro and more formal grammar explanations would be great.

Response from Rocket Languages: Thanks so much for your review, it's much appreciated. We're sorry you're not satisfied with the Interactive Audio lessons. Please note that you can just listen to the conversation in Italian, rather than the full lesson if you prefer - just look for the Play It section on each Interactive Audio lesson page. For more formal grammar explanations, please try the Language and Culture lessons - there are approximately 5 per Module. We hope this helps!
This is a well structured, rounded and compelling language program. The balance of learning styles (auditory, spoken, written, testing) reinforce the lessons. The content is relevant for me, an English-speaking Australian, traveling to Italy for the first time in September. The pricing is value-for-money. 'Repetition' is the mother of learning and you incorporate repeated phrases throughout each successive lesson. I find I have to keep re-doing lessons to anchor the learning. Bravo! Grazie.
Loving this course has everything you need to learn on a modern platform, very well thought out-- has all the angles covered for easy, effective and fun learning.
I'm having problems with my microphone. It's frustrating.

Incredibly fitted to the needs of one who have a base knowledge in Italian and wants to improve his speaking skills
This is the best online platform to learn a language in my very honest opinion. Tried different stuff that is good too but not as complete as Rocket Languages.
