Rocket Italian Reviews

From what I reviewed so far this is an excellent product. Easy and fun to use. Being able download and listen in my iPad is awesome. Can't wait to continue with rest of the lessons. I already tried few things I learned so far with one of my Italian coworker and he was impressed.

Thus far I am enjoying Rocket. I really like the explanations of why certain words are they way they are. It helps me understand the language.

Great program so far! I'm about halfway done with Level 1 and I am incredibly pleased with the course so far. Both of the instructors have an excellent pace, and the focus on audio with cultural lessons is very effective for me. With other language-learning in school, there was a heavy focus on reading and writing, which is important, but actually speaking the language and learning how to pick our words and phrases you know helps to reenforce the learning effectively.

Very excited to continue the modules and other levels-Molto Bene Rocket Italian!

I am just in the early Italian lessons but already I have a feel for the language. The ROCKET style is both immersive and explanatory. The lessons are based on real conversations and then verbs and grammar are expanded. The added cultural references are fantastic!
I think the strongest feature of the curriculum lies with the ability to record your own voice and compare it to the lesson speaker. I am able to speak and listen over and over, hearing every little inflection until I get it right. At the introduction to each lesson, it sounds difficult. At the end of each lesson it seems so easy. The review before each new lesson reinforces the previous lesson. As an instructor myself, I appreciate the careful lesson plan that engages vocalization, comprehension, vocabulary expansions, and written words. But unlike dry textbook style, the lesson is really just a typical conversation, so you feel able to jump right into a situation and understand. I have wanted to speak Italian my whole life so I can travel to Italy and now I am so exited that this is now within my reach.

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.

the more i do it, the more i like it. I also like the format. Starting out slow, but gradually getting harder.

The program is really helpful and I really enjoy going back and forth through the lessons. I like how they have both an American and actual Italian so I am able to hear it and understand it better. I love the written and verbal quiz. The verbal one usually gets me because its not multiple choice so I have to remember the whole conversation. Its nice that you can rate how well you know it so you can go back if you need to and remember which ones you didnt know.

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.

A great way to start learning conversational Italian! The course is structured in such a way that it gives the learner confidence right from the start. The repeated opportunities for practice allows the learner to easily build up both an understanding and a vocabulary.

I have learned a lot with the Rocket Italian course. It is great, because I can study whenever I want, and there are a lot to do, I can practice my listening, writing and also record my speech.
I am happy about that...
Thanks
