Hi Ciffy, thank you for your review. It's awesome that you have had a great learning experience with Rocket Italian. All the best with your Italian language-learning journey!
I'm greatly enjoying the experience, but i wish the tests were more comprehensive. the tests only consist of 5 questions, nothing difficult, nothing that requires a lot of memory, and they're not randomized (the position of the answer) so it's difficult not to remember the position of the answer vs the actual answer itself after the first time.

I used to be very impressed by rocketfrench, but there are a lot of things that I don't agree with anymore after almost two years of using it.
The good:
1. Listening to native speakers, repeating it, comparing it, having the scripted conversations - all that is good for pronunciation and I enjoy that.
2. there is a structure
The bad:
1. Updates that feel like beta-versions -> I did not pay to be a beta tester
2. The translation approach is outdated and will not lead to fluency.
3. The translation approach often does not make sense in the grammar chapters.
hints as to which version of multiple options to use are literal translations instead of contextual hints, that would lead to better understanding of the concepts underneath.
4. As in many other courses it is mostly very formal written french that you learn, sometimes some "real spoken french" is mixed in and that mix does not make much sense as it mixes different "registers" like formal, neutral, familiar french.
Most upsetting are the updates, that change the programm and not always for the better.
If it were always changes for the better, improving things and giving more options, I would be fine with that.
But sometimes things are being taken away and taking things away from customers is not a good idea.
That is not a problem for new customers, cause they are not missing anything.
But it is a problem for me as a user of almost two years and I don't have what I bought anymore.

Rocket Languages is essential for anyone who is serious about learning a new language. The course is designed to help us start having real life conversations from the very first lesson. Instead of wasting time learning useless vocabulary, Rocket Languages teaches words and phrases that we are likely to use to everyday. So, if you want to immerse yourself in a new language, ditch those other language apps that are gimmicky and flash card based and instead invest in learning a new language with depth and understanding.

Learning languages is really nice here; it sticks. Reciting the vocabulary and having it "graded" is really helpful for pronunciation. The "Play It!" portion is extremely helpful when it comes to being able to speak the language on cue. And when you're learning Russian, like me, or a language with a different writing system, "Write It!" can be frustrating and challenging yet extremely beneficial.
