Rocket Italian Reviews

Mi piace parlare l'italiano! é facile imparare italiano con il metodo di Rocket Italian.

I love the conversational set-up, the practicality and the practice provided, speaking, listening, spelling, flash cards, quiz! Love it all!

so far so good, the method its easy and apprachable

In the first lesson, the voice recognition doesn't work. From 53 words, for 1 word gave the feedback.

Like it so far :) Can go at my own pace and isn't overwhelming

In the beginning I think I won't be able to learn the new vocabulary actively or even passively, but by the end I have it almost all down. The expressions with irregular verbs are well explained and illustrated. Lots of practice with different skills. My only complaint is the program's recognition glitches, usually with numerals.

I have done a few other language platforms, but this is by far the best and most interactive. I'm very happy I came across Rocket Language! We plan on living in Italy a few months each year, and my kids are fired up to learn Italian!

Really well designed course (I have a Masters in Second Language Acquisition), and the material is really varied and enjoyable. The warm and clever personalities of the two hosts really carries me through the work!

I am loving the course! The methodology is very good so far
I hope it keeps the same way in the next lessons

I have been practicing Italian using several methods for about a year, including Duolingo max, Coffee Break Italian Podcast, YouTube videos, and chatGPT. I've learned quite a bit, but I was looking for an additional resource to really ramp up my practice in speaking and pronouncing words. I was drawn to Rocket for its reputation for speaking practice, and so far, I'm really impressed. Some of the other tools I use include speaking practice, but this app really takes it to the next level by having you practice every phrase, record it, and scoring it.

Duolingo will have me translate an Italian word or phrase into English, but I always have a word bank to choose from, which allows me to deduce the answer rather than remember it. I like that part of my lesson in Rocket requires me to translate to Italian without a hint, which forces me to try harder to remember it. I also really like that I can record my own voice and play it back, so that I can compare it to the way the teacher pronounces words.

Like the podcast I listen to, these lessons have a teacher and a native speaker who explains cultural nuances, common mistakes, etc. And this really helps draw attention to areas that deserve special focus during practice.
