It works well, a good structure. Needs a separate flash card section to go over vocab.

It's awesome to hear that you're enjoying our Rocket Italian course. We hope your language-learning journey continues along its current trajectory!
I really like that there is more structure to the courses than many online self-taught alternatives. The dialogues and activities are very helpful. The cultural notes are also great. This course feels a lot more "real life applicable" than many other online resources I've used.

Audio does not work, neither for initial pronunciation, nor playback. When I try to listen "session aborted" appears.

Hi Marguerite, thank you for your review, I'm sorry to hear you are continuing to experience issues with the audio features of Rocket Languages. We have contacted you via email in order to resolve this issue. All the best!
I love the program. I've been using another program for the last 8 months and there is no comparison. Rocket Italian provides grammatical explanations that are easy to understand and remember.
Generally the best language software I have found, but I have two gripes:
1. the level 2 courses have identical dialogue in Italian and French, which makes them so much more boring the second time around
2. There is no reduction in the quantity of english as the level increases. The program should phase out the use of English through level 2 and it should be almost entirely absent in level 3 in my opinion. For this reason I will not buy another level 3 course.

Hi Tim - Thanks for the review. The Italian and French Interactive Audio lesson conversations courses are similar but not identical. The Italian/French gets more complicated as you go up the levels. Also, the Language & Culture lessons for Levels 2 & 3 are about to be fully revamped within the next 2 months.
I have only just started but so far am impressed in contrast with other approaches.
I am very pleased to have a balance of styles and methods of teaching that really encourages one to move forwards and not get bored. the pace of the first few sessions seems about right to me.
For some reason, it works better in terms of mic/voice recognition using Chrome rather than Safari on my MAC, but that's not a major drawback.
It would be good to also have packaged with the product some Italian interlinear translations of modern literature in pdf and spoken (slowly) form ... say Harry Potter/ Alice in Wonderland / The name of the Rose.
I have also found that using a "Translate" app on my iPhone on a regular basis throughout the day to add an extra active dimension to learning the language and pronunciation.
All in all an initially great experience for a 60-year-old who isn't that great at learning languages.
