Rocket Italian Reviews

Unfortunately, the lessons in Level 2 are not as well done as Level 1. There is little value in attempting to repeat long directions (as in Lesson 8.4). It would be much more helpful to have us repeat short directions: turn left, turn right, make a U turn, go straight ahead, for example. Or, better yet, put the English down (Go to this street, turn left onto that street, make a U turn, etc.) and have us translate it into Italian, with the correct Italian phrase afterwards.

I've only been studying for two weeks, but so far I'm cautiously optimistic. I like the reinforcement exercises and hope they continue. Review, practice, reinforcement, and generalization are so important for language learning and these conditions of good learning seem to be built into the program so far. I'm a little turned off by the chattiness of the two conversants but that's just me.

Useful! Rocket Spanish and Rocket Italian is very good!

This seemed like an excellent way to learn Italian. I have now lived here, in Italy, for two years and it is definitely essential that I can understand ir!

It is not very good at hearing what you say and my class really doesn't like it.

So far, Rocket Italian has been wonderful. I love the mix of interactive audio lessons and the Language & Culture lessons. It gives me the opportunity to learn both by immersing myself in real phrases AND by getting into the grammar and vocabulary. I like that I'm tasked with listening, speaking, reading and writing, and I combine it with my own note-taking and studying to really cement my learning.

The voices of Maria and Alessandro in Rocket Italian are excellent. The voices imported from (I assume) Google Translate are at times incomprehensible (muffled or blurry). I've started using Google Translate directly on another tab to overcome these difficulties. Your IT people might want to explore the issue. Otherwise, the structure of the course fits my learning style and I am making steady progress. The audio criticism is not a deal breaker. I would recommend Rocket Italian to others.

very good and easy to follow and learn. I love the way we can talked in the different dialogs and we can hear the way we talk. Nice course

As a military member currently station in Italy and actively using Rocket Italian, I must share that this program works at its best! The program is fun, enjoyable, and very efficient at breaking the lessons to it's learners. The work staff even in distance are very credible and happy to help when needed. After only a few months of learning, I'm able to order my own food, pay my bills, catch a train speaking nothing but Italian. Most importantly, I am able to communicate with my significant other and her family and this is just the beginning. Rocket Italian, highly recommended to those passing through Italy or simply wanting to catch a new language.

I prefer more grammar rules and explanations starting out. So far the program is very basic. More vocabulary would be better.
