This is a great site to help you learn a language. I am using it to learn Italian, having grown up around the language, i thought I already knew the basics, but this has helped me to learn how to speak properly and learn even more! It's very thorough in it's explanations of why certain words are used and how to learn the correct grammar and forms of the words. The voice recognition is an excellent tool in helping you to make sure your pronunciation is correct. It works best with headphones and helps to point out which parts of a sentence you are saying incorrectly, then you can mark it easy or hard so you can come back to it later if you need more practice. They also have a wonderful app that allows you to practice on the go! Honestly without the app, i might never get on to practice, i’m usually too lazy to actually get onto the computer so the app has been fantastic. You can do everything on the app that you can on the website. Customer service is great, I had trouble using the app at first so i sent an email and got a very quick reply. They are also open to suggestions on what you think can be improved so that you can learn easier. Money well spent!

I want to be able to move on from hear it, write it etc with all keyboard commands. I don't want to use the mouse as it interrupts flow.

Great way to learn a new language! The pace is very approachable and the instructors do a great job of showing you a slow pace and natural pace.

I am impressed with the amount of content I quickly picking up! However, I just wish there was a way I could practice my conversation skills, directly.

Only other feature I wish was included was some sort of podcast/media content that you could just listen to on commutes. No need for testing/flashcards from it, but just additional "listening time" about culture and specific grammar mistakes.

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.

Response from Rocket Languages

Thanks so much for your review. We have emailed you directly for some examples of the audio that sounds muffled - as mentioned, all audio is recorded and edited in our studio, and we are having trouble replicating the issue. We look forward to hearing from you soon!

I 've been enjoying the course so far! I like the fact that I can work my own pace. I find it the voice recognition system very useful as I always compare the native speaker pronunciation with mine. I've noticed that my comprehension skills have improved and also the cultural aspects associated with the course are to the point. It makes learning memorable :)

Well, I've just started learning Italian through the Rocket Italian website. I'd spent some time looking for an online course, and this one seemed to receive the best reviews. I was so impressed by the trial, I've decided to subscribe to the course. I've tried to learn Italian in the past but had a few false starts. What I like about the site is its design and ease of use. Careful thought has gone into how each lesson is structured, and how each module makes you feel that you're really learning. Each lesson exercises really force your brain to remember what you've learned. I've already recommended Rocket to a few friends and would advise anyone to take a look. I'm planning on completing the course a lesson per day, then buying the French course when complete.

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.

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.
