Rocket Italian Reviews

i have very much liked the rocket italian course and i am sure i will purchase this course at some time.you are providing very good courses for learning and by hearing the words we can also excel in that accent and thank you for proividing audio interactive lessons

I am greatly enjoying the Rocket Italian course (whilst continuing with Rocket French). Really glad I bought these courses - they are far better (and much better value for money) than others I have tried as they help you not just to speak and understand but also give valuable insights into how the language 'works'. Short of living in the target language country (or marrying a native speaker!) this is probably the best way of learning a language well.

Excellent experience and lots of fun. I really didn't think my learning was going to be that fast, but the more I study the more I want to get home and study. It feels like it is getting into a habit and I am getting addicted to this habit.
I will certainly recommend to my friends that are interested on learning a language.

It is a horribly frustrating program. I have yet been able to download it. Only two lessons in two modules have been downloaded. To be fair one of the chat support people told me to call and she would guide me through the download, but I am tired of playing with the program and haven't called. After the download to the computer I have to download them to CDs. Oh help!

The review by Debora Inklaar is pretty accurate but typically too cheesy american to be impartial. My own assessment having previously attended an evening class for three terms is that Rocket Italian is a better option. i'm getting on fine with it. Your implanted review doesn't need to be so cheesy,

I really wanted to learn Italian for i pesonally think its a beautiful language. I had a really hard time learning it because not alot of people here know it. Ever since i started using rocket languages my life has been made so much easier. It's easy to use and my italian has improved and thats all thanks to rocket languages (Maria DiLorenzi).

I'm so glad I found Rocket Italian! It's my new happy place, which manages to be as effective and entertaining as podcasts and apps I've tried without being pedantic, patronizing, or repetitive. Alex and Maria are excellent hosts and keep things practical with helpful cultural notes and realistic situations. Even though Alex has a distinctly American accent in comparison to Maria, it's endearing and instructive in its own way. I'm having a blast so far and can't wait to get to later, more complex conversations.

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.

I am enjoying learning Italian for my trip and it seems to make sense so far. Not sure of the customer service because I have not had to use it and cant choose stars based on use so I choose a one star. Sorry, hate fake stat boosting. I can say the search functionality is trash. I tried to search a simple word such as "Tomorrow" and it came up with no results. I have a feeling I will learn much and be happier than I would with Rosetta.

I am coming to the end of the second module in Level 1 Italian after a few weeks of studying for about an hour per day. I like the structure of the course overall and enjoy the various methods used to help the language penetrate my slow brain! At times there does seem to be a slight disconnect though in the sense that the ‘language and culture’ sections which follow the situational interactive audio lessons provide information that would have been useful to know prior to commencing the latter. Looked another way, I guess I could say that they reinforce the earlier lessons but, for me, some of this knowledge would have been useful ‘up front’ to assist in the understanding of those lessons. That aside, to date, I am very happy with the course; it has held my attention and kept me motivated. Let’s see if this remains the case in the coming months and years!
