Rocket Italian Reviews

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.

So far it is making a seemingly difficult task fun and easy. The combination of the learning styles is very helpful and symbiotic.
If things continue as they have so far I expect I'll be able to have at least some basic communication skills when I next get to Italy.

I'm really enjoying Rocket French. I find the lessons intuitive and easy to follow. The audio lessons are enjoyable to listen to, and the Rocket Record feature is extremely helpful, allowing me to compare my pronunciation with that of the native speaker. I feel I am already making good progress, and would recommend the programme highly! I'm planning to supplement what I learn here with additional study, and future visits to France, in order to get lots of practice speaking! Although it's still early days, it is likely that I will progress to the next level of Rocket French after I complete this one.

Very nice to have a feedback system, and being able to test your voice against a proper pronunciation is a great help.

I've only just begun my Rocket Italian course, but so far it's been great. Reading through the forums, its nice to see how promptly questions are answered as well, so I know if I ever get stuck, there will be help nearby

Rocket Italian is so much more than memorizing words. It's real world application. The teachers also make it fun with all their joking around. I feel I will actually be able to make conversation when I finish the course.

I like the format of the lessons and practices. I also like the ability to manipulate the dialogues to listen to any part again, as it is in the repetition that I can get the pronunciation and intonation to sound like the speaker. I also like the tips for the tourist that will be useful for my upcoming trip to Italy.

Just started and thoroughly enjoying the lessons. I was extremely frustrated using an older Berlitz course and about to give up...but this has excited me and can't wait to progress further, Great explanations as well especially relating to verbs which have always confused me.

I have used many different language programs and this one seems to have the best combination of activities to cater of my style of learning. As I'm moving to Italy, I need intense practice so that I am may go about my daily activities with ease. I think this is the perfect program to get me up and running. As an auditory learner, I like the repetition is perfect for me. I can't wait to get to Italy to start using this beautiful language.

Frankly, I think Rocket Italiano is very good. Though it is slow going for me, it does seem thorough. I do think the price is perfect and if I get through this first course, I will continue with the next course. I am going to Sicily at the end of June and the first part of July, so I hope I have it somewhat together by then.

Motivation to learn a different language is the key. I like the way Rocket Italiano has provided different ways to keep this interesting. The testing is interesting, as is trying to speak the way the instructors speak. I have not gone through the entire course step by step, but I have jumped around a bit and keep coming back for more.

I am wondering though if there is a major difference between the Italian language and the Sicilian language. I have relatives in Sicily and I am going to try to communicate with them when I am visiting. Some of them I have never met. It should be interesting. I will continue the course when I get back and if I am comfortable enough, I will enroll in the next Rocket Italiano course. As of right now though, it seems that I have a long way to go.

Very good language course, giving the appropriate amount of information required at your stage of development! It doesn't swamp you with too much grammar, only enough to keep you seeking more, using your own initiative.
