Rocket Languages review criteria
We are really enjoying learning Italian with Rocket Languages. Having your pronunciation rated is a real bonus, it's something that a real teacher might not be able to convey as accurately. It can also be quite funny finding out what an Italian would hear as opposed to what you thought you said. We also like the reading, writing and comprehension activities. Because the grammar of the language is explained you get a greater understanding of the language and feel like you're 'learning; the language and not just repeating and memorising it parrot fashion.
Rocket Languages is a great starting point for learning a new language. The format is fun and easy! It makes learning an enjoyable challenge! I love the testing! My husband and I are both studying Italian and the badges given are a good motivation as well for us, especially if you're a bit competitive. I feel I am learning a lot from Rocket Language. I wish they would offer Dutch as a course as well. I must say though that many languages are offered, and that is fantastic! Thank you Rocket Languages for opening doors to new worlds!
I am only on lesson 1.1, but so far, so good. My Grandfather was born in Italy but only taught me swear words in Italian. My plan is to go to Italy in two years to research my Genealogy, and discover more about my Ancestors. Your program is excellent, thank you!!!!!
I love this program. I am learning so much, although the premium program is a little expensive. But, I'm going to Italy in a few months and I feel very confident and I'm doing very well. I have a couple suggestions: 1) I would like an area or a quick "free" App to write a few of my own sentences or words to practice (instead of bringing a tablet or paper to do this), and this App will write it out in Italian (or visa versa in English); and 2) Do you have an App where I can open it up without Wifi? To open while I'm in Airplane Mode? I have a competitors App on my phone to do this but it is not as good as Rocket Languages). I don't need or expect the whole premium program outside of WiFi, just an a quick App where I can write or search a word in case I need to refresh on the Airplane, or if I forget a word, or I need to read something, etc. outside of the Wifi in Italy.
This is the second time I have used an electronic based course for learning Italian. The first was about 15 years ago, and I did not proceed very far. The structure of this course is very clear and easy to follow, and surprisingly the points earning has exposed a hitherto unknown competitive nature which has assisted motivation to propel me forward. The only change I would make would be to have voice recognition rate your speech, rather than rate your own. The forum is useful, and customer service extremely prompt. 5 stars all around.
The best web to learn the Italian language.becuase after wonderful lectures you have tests to complite and there you can put to the test yourself.I have benefited from lectures and testst,so I want you to do the same.
I am just in the early Italian lessons but already I have a feel for the language. The ROCKET style is both immersive and explanatory. The lessons are based on real conversations and then verbs and grammar are expanded. The added cultural references are fantastic!
I think the strongest feature of the curriculum lies with the ability to record your own voice and compare it to the lesson speaker. I am able to speak and listen over and over, hearing every little inflection until I get it right. At the introduction to each lesson, it sounds difficult. At the end of each lesson it seems so easy. The review before each new lesson reinforces the previous lesson. As an instructor myself, I appreciate the careful lesson plan that engages vocalization, comprehension, vocabulary expansions, and written words. But unlike dry textbook style, the lesson is really just a typical conversation, so you feel able to jump right into a situation and understand. I have wanted to speak Italian my whole life so I can travel to Italy and now I am so exited that this is now within my reach.
It's well organized and easy to use anywhere and anytime. Love the record and playback feature because it helps me hear how I sound compared to the instructor. I have the app as well, and use it in the car on my way to work. It was nice to be able to buy just the first lessons to see how well I liked it. I will definitely be buying the next set of lessons too.
I think Rocket Languages is great! I love the way it integrates real life conversations with grammar in a way which makes language learning fun, interactive and productive. I also love how at the end of each lesson there is an option to practice the vocabulary using different modes (listening, writing, speaking). This not only allows you to memorise the words but practicing in this way also trains your ear to be able to write unknown Italian words without needing to be told how to spell them. I only started learning Italian about a month ago but I already feel like I've made so much progress and the great thing is I enjoy it too!
Response from Rocket Languages
Thank you, Emily! We're delighted to hear about the progress you've made learning Italian in just a month. We love having you in our community of language learners and can't wait to see where this journey takes you!
Well, I've just started learning Italian through the Rocket Italian website. I'd spent some time looking for an online course, and this one seemed to receive the best reviews. I was so impressed by the trial, I've decided to subscribe to the course. I've tried to learn Italian in the past but had a few false starts. What I like about the site is its design and ease of use. Careful thought has gone into how each lesson is structured, and how each module makes you feel that you're really learning. Each lesson exercises really force your brain to remember what you've learned. I've already recommended Rocket to a few friends and would advise anyone to take a look. I'm planning on completing the course a lesson per day, then buying the French course when complete.
