Rocket Italian Reviews

I've been looking for some kind of program that can help me further learn the Italian Language and I believe I just may have found it in Rocket Languages!! I've been able to learn quite a bit in just the short time I've been using the trial version and am prepared to purchase this product!

Thank you!!

As a second generation Italian born in the US my parents did not teach me Italian and I've always been saddened by their decision. A trip to Italy last year prompted me to at least know enough to get by. But, I have wanted to really learn how to speak, write and understand the language. A blog recommended Rocket Italian , it was on sale and the rest is history!

Had studied Italian on my own for few years, but had trouble in when in Italy keeping up with listening and speaking with native speakers. I came home and found this program had exactly what I needed to really improve my conversational skills. It is thorough, gradual and moves you along steadily, but comfortably. I'm sure my friends while notice the difference when I return!

My first hour with it! Great. However you really need to get the HTML5 recorder working as the Adobe Flash is very cumbersome. But, still, its much, much better than nothing. I improved my pronunciation very quickly.

So far, so good. I have completed the five levels of Rosetta Stone and don't feel confidant at all about my proficiency. I'm hoping this course gets me to the level I want. My wife and I are going to Italy in October for vacation.

I enjoy these lessons very much. They are easy to use and learn from. The annunciation, for the most part, is very understandable and easy to repeat after. I enjoy the quizzes and wish I had a microphone attached to my computer so I could record my own phrases.

The Italian course provides an excellent beginning for learning this pleasing language. Easy to follow, paced appropriately, and just enough to get you going but not frustrate you. IMHO, this approach is far superior to just flashing pictures and trying to get you to associate with a word.

So far so good! Learning a new language when you are in your 50's is hard at times. But with Rocket Italian I'm finding I am making good headway. I find it very useful to be able to go to whatever lesson I feel like. Some days I'm tired & just want to go back over the basics. Other days I'm energised & ready to tackle a new topic. The tests are really useful too. I often go back to an old test to again reinforce my learning.

I like that so much of the exercises use audio. Too many language teachers end up teaching how to read a language, but put very little emphasis on speaking and comprehension. I also really like the dictation exercises, mostly because they give me practice in comprehension of spoken Spanish.

I am studying Italian in Siena for eight weeks, going to a school in the mornings and using Rocket Italian in the afternoons. I enjoy the variety of the subjects covered and especially like the quiz. I am surrounded by the language at present but will find this course invaluable when I get home to Wales.
