Excellent course for learning Italian as my 3rd romance language with Spanish being my best. I do not think there could be a better way to learn the basics. Practice, practice, practice and then find someone to practice with!

I like the lessons. The only downside is that I like to do lessons on a device -- specifically, a waterproof iPod while I do cardio in the pool for an hour -- not on my computer or phone. Unfortunately, with your program, I have to download one lesson at a time, rather than download all the lessons at once so I can put them into a file and transfer them to my device. That's the reason I would not purchase from you again. If there is a work around that would allow me to do a single download, like I can with Pimsleur, I would definitely buy from you again.

Learning activities do cater for students who are keen to speak Italian. The phrases are are easy to follow to see how grammatical parts fit together . Which helps in phrasing when reading, memorisation, recall and substituting words in the phrases.
I'm getting there slowly and enjoying the process.

I'm very new to Rocket (only a few lessons in). I love the idea, and almost all the execution, think it's a great design - well-organized, relevant conversational topics, practical for likely real-life situations, and there's lots of opportunity to practice (recording, writing, quizzes, etc).
Overall happy!

I have to say though that having to listen to one of the 2 two teachers for the course speak Italian with a really strong American accent is super-annoying. I don't want to hear that, it's not helpful. (I have a hard time imagining what Rocket could have even been thinking there...)

All that said, I'm still glad to have it. I'm going to Rome in 4 mo for the first time, and I feel like this will give me a great foundation for very basic interactions, which always feels good.

Response from Rocket Languages

Thanks so much for your review and feedback - it's much appreciated. We wanted to let you know that our level 2 and 3 courses, plus the Travelogue lessons, include only native speakers speaking Italian. We are hoping to update Level 1 at some point, as well, with a native speaker. I hope that helps. Have a great trip to Rome!

I purchased this course to give me a chance to practice speaking. I had to you 3 different browsers before it would accept my microphone. I find some of the voice responses I made were nowhere near what I said when fetched. I'm going to keep going for a while but may cancel.

I am going to Florence for my 60th birthday in the fall. I bought Rocket so I could at least know a little Italian. It is hard and I am learning!
