Great price and lots and lots of great tools to improve your language skills and become comfortable with your Italian.
I was extremely please by how all of the review show higher rating compared to other programs (i.e: Rosetta Stone) and how the price is much lower. The content is great, by providing you with means to speak, listen, and practice your italian, as well as learn about the culture and costumes of the country and the people.
I also enjoy knowing that I have lifetime access to the software and all that it comes with, which allows me to go back to it whenever I please.

Rocket Italian is an amazing product! I've tried Rosetta Stone in the past but found their lesson plans to be boring. Rocket Italian is engaging and an overall better value since it's far less expensive.

I'm having so much fun learning the language of my parents and grandparents. I didn't learn Italian growing up as my parents wanted to be American. When they got older they regretted not having taught us. But it's never too late to learn. I took 4 years of French in high school, so some of this is a bit familiar to me, however that was many years ago. Thank you for making this so much fun.

Overall Rocket Italian is a pretty good system. You get exposed to the language in a variety of ways and have some explanation as to why a particular pattern exists.

It does have the problem that there is only one correct answer for each thing. This of course ignores the fact that many things can be said in slightly different ways. As an example the phrase "She is angry" technically can be said as either "Lei è arrabbiata" OR "È arrabbiata" however the only accepted answer is "È arrabbiata". In other places an answer is only accepted if it has a he/she indicator.

There are also numerous places where the English phrase refers to you plural but for some strange reason they have not realized that _every_ place they do that needs some kind of indicator that they mean you plural rather than you singular since English only has 'you'.

Overall the issues with Rocket Italian aren't that big but they make it feel more like you are memorizing lines in another language rather than learning another language. The dialogues are the worst for this as they slowly take away more of the words you are supposed to say but you have to say the phrase word for word to get it right even though there are times when you could get the same meaning across with slightly different words. (They really should package the dialogue portion so that it can be used by actors memorizing lines as that is what it does.)

Very happy with Rocket languages. I am currently taking the Spanish course but I am trying to switchover to Italian?
I am waiting to hear from customer service( I just contacted them) .....hopefully it’s doable.

I looked around for an online Italian course and I chose Rocket Italian. I haven't been disappointed - the software and lessons work very well and are taking me along my journey to becoming fluent. Through the course I am building a good base. I am now confident to converse with Italians through a local group. I love how I can pick up and drop down at home or work.

After few weeks of training I am able to grade the Rocket Languages platform, as a serious, smart and performance oriented way of mastering foreign language. This is highly recommended tool, that will be able to help you to learn a language while beeing able to maintain your interest and motivation levels up.

I absolutely adore Rocket Languages! I can't believe how much I'm learning and how good I feel about it. I've tried many language learning programs before (including the much-touted Rosseta Stone) and there is definitely no comparison. The key to Rocket Languages' superiority are the audio lessons with the hosts. They "get" how adults learn and take the time to stop and tell you the grammar. The humor is appreciated as well. I really feel like I have a shot at improving my Italian in time for my trip next April. I can also hardly wait to finish the Italian course so I can then purchase the French course. I highly recommend Rocket Languages.

I have just started learning Italian with Rocket Languages. So far it is the best language course out of all courses I tried before. Very well structured! And one if the best things about it is keeping everything in one app on my mobile. Thank you!

Although I have followed some other Italian language courses, I like this course particularly because of the recording facility, which allows you to hear what you sound like in Italian, as well as the excellent explanations of the grammar points. I also like the numerous tests and the role play sections which mirror as near as possible what it is like to take part in a conversation in Italian. I am not sure I have mastered how all the tests work, but I am sure this will become clearer once I have gone further in the course.
