Rocket Languages Reviews

After barely progressing with Rosetta Stone for four years, I already feel like I am learning so much with Rocket languages! While Rosetta spends a lot of time teaching phrases like the girl swims, the girl runs, and the women are cooking, rocket languages starts with useful phrases like I enjoy learning, My name is, etc.

I like the format of the lessons and practices. I also like the ability to manipulate the dialogues to listen to any part again, as it is in the repetition that I can get the pronunciation and intonation to sound like the speaker. I also like the tips for the tourist that will be useful for my upcoming trip to Italy.

Just started and thoroughly enjoying the lessons. I was extremely frustrated using an older Berlitz course and about to give up...but this has excited me and can't wait to progress further, Great explanations as well especially relating to verbs which have always confused me.

I have returned to the course after a lapse of time. I prefer the new style, and the added tests are helping me to recap and have increased my motivation to study. Had difficulty in getting the voice recording to work.

excellent course
very detailed and comprehensive
i use it every day

I have used many different language programs and this one seems to have the best combination of activities to cater of my style of learning. As I'm moving to Italy, I need intense practice so that I am may go about my daily activities with ease. I think this is the perfect program to get me up and running. As an auditory learner, I like the repetition is perfect for me. I can't wait to get to Italy to start using this beautiful language.

I wanted to go back to learning french after having taken some courses in college. After trying a few different approaches, I came across Rocket French. I have to say, I'm very pleased with the results. The dialogues are instructive and fun, making it that much easier to want stay with the program. I can easily recommend Rocket French to anyone thinking about learning the language.

Very good language course, giving the appropriate amount of information required at your stage of development! It doesn't swamp you with too much grammar, only enough to keep you seeking more, using your own initiative.

Love the emphasis on learning through phrases, and becoming comfortable with the spoken language instead of beginning with grammar/vocabulary - much more enjoyable and relevant way to grasp the language. Also puts emphasis on learners figuring out the way the language works for themselves.
Everything is so clear, plenty of repetition and exercises to practise speaking/writing, although I'd like new verbs/nouns to be introduced even more frequently for changing phrase context/learning new vocab - Rocket French has made it seem so easy I always need more! Thanks.

Frankly, I think Rocket Italiano is very good. Though it is slow going for me, it does seem thorough. I do think the price is perfect and if I get through this first course, I will continue with the next course. I am going to Sicily at the end of June and the first part of July, so I hope I have it somewhat together by then.

Motivation to learn a different language is the key. I like the way Rocket Italiano has provided different ways to keep this interesting. The testing is interesting, as is trying to speak the way the instructors speak. I have not gone through the entire course step by step, but I have jumped around a bit and keep coming back for more.

I am wondering though if there is a major difference between the Italian language and the Sicilian language. I have relatives in Sicily and I am going to try to communicate with them when I am visiting. Some of them I have never met. It should be interesting. I will continue the course when I get back and if I am comfortable enough, I will enroll in the next Rocket Italiano course. As of right now though, it seems that I have a long way to go.
