Rocket Italian Reviews

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.

Very good course. I like the mix of audio lessons and then the apps to practice. Better than the other apps I have been using.

It's an easy and fun way to get started in any new language or to review after you had a pause.

I've learned way more than with other programs. I love how much opportunity there is to practice and review AND...you can control what you are studying and reviewing. Other programs will offer you 30 words you know to get maybe one or two you didn't and still not offer some of the others you hoped to review. With Rocket Italian there is much more conversational listening and speaking offered in ways that seem to me more sensible. By sensible, I mean in ways that seem to enable it to "stick" more effectively. Lots of repetition and reinforcement. Best of all, I am actually enjoying using this program. I highly recommend Rocket Italian (and I would imagine any Rocket Language) course!

This language program is absolutely fantastic. It has been developed with so much forethought. The information is delivered in an easy to consume manner and reinforced with fun lessons. I look forward to practicing everyday. I have already recommended it to all the mature aged students who are going to class with me to learn Italian. Well done to the Platform Developers.

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.

I am so glad that I found this application on google search to learn Itallian language

It feels very realistic, not just random facts nor specific conversations, but applicable and relevant short conversations.

I just finished the first lesson and really enjoyed it. I was able to practice speaking and enjoyed having to write the words in Italian. That helped to reinforce pronunciation.

I had a discount code in order to purchase, otherwise, it would have been out of my price range.

This course is freaking awesome, im a senior in high school and im going on a class trip to italy, this is a life saver. I really wanted to learn the language before going to the country and this is helping sooooo much i can't believe this is free!! AND it's sooooo helpful 100000/10 !!
