Rocket Italian Reviews

so far so good, need to ask me 4 or 5 lessons in

Hi,
I've been using Rocket Italian for a week now and find I'm learning more Italian than in an evening class I took at college three years ago. I like that I can listen to my recorded voice and immediately compare it to the native speaker. This allows me to greatly improve my pronunciation. The pacing of the lessons is good, though I have to review often previous lessons so as not to forget difficult parts from those lessons. I'm trying to complete one lesson each day. I spend 30 minutes, then take a break before returning to finish the lesson. I practice talking aloud to myself during the day repeating the words and phrases I've learned. I will be travelling to Umbria for a month in a year. I hope to be able to have simple conversations with the local people. So far I am very pleased with Rocket Italian. The regular price is expensive, but I managed to buy it with a promo code for 60% off. At that price it is a good value for all that you get. Also the forum is an excellent way to get answers to your questions. I recommend Rocket Italian to anyone wishing to learn this language!

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.

As I work my way through the Rocket Italian lessons, I am really learning Italian. Everything is explained so that the grammar makes sense, and I am getting lots of practice speaking Italian. I have tried other online programs, and they do not even come close to the thoroughness of Rocket Italian. Besides, the dialogues are fun!

I am only on lesson 1.1, but so far, so good. My Grandfather was born in Italy but only taught me swear words in Italian. My plan is to go to Italy in two years to research my Genealogy, and discover more about my Ancestors. Your program is excellent, thank you!!!!!

I've only been using the course for three days now, but so far the lessons have been interesting and engaging. I find it a plus that there is a native speaker who speaks clearly and slowly and is easy to understand, even with the accent. I am mildly concerned about not learning a variety of vocabulary but as I have literally just started the program, I'll reserve judgement.

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.

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.

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 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).
