I like how interactive it is and that you can reset your tasks as many times as you want until your across it.

While I am learning, I wouldn't use the prompted word, "awesome". The course relies heavily on voice recognition, which isn't entirely reliable. Also, there are a frustrating number of words or grammatical rules that appear in the practice phrases that weren't included in the lesson. Keeping a Google Translate window open helps with the vocabulary. I'm left to hope that the unexplained grammar will eventually be covered in a subsequent module...

Response from Rocket Languages

Thank you for your feedback, Robert. Please contact us at support@rocketlanguages.com, and we would be happy to look into the grammar rule you mentioned, provide more information, and assist you with voice recognition. In the meantime, remember that the Rocket Italian Forum is available for you and monitored by our friendly Italian tutor, so feel free to post your grammar questions there for additional clarification.

This is by far the most comprehensive course in learning to speak Italian. It incorporates speaking with grammar as well as culture and history. I am learning so much and loving the experience! So glad I purchased the entire course. It is worth every penny!

Response from Rocket Languages

Thank you, Judith! It's great to hear how much you are enjoying all the aspects of the course. We wish you all the best!

Learning from english, when from Sweden, is an interesting experience. And I discover advantages along the way, rekognizing different grammar rules and linguistic details in italian, from both my native tongue and english, respectively. I like your philosophy of learning languages, a lot. And I think you have created a magnificent tool/school/course with this Rocket application. So many aspects and depth, in the same appealing package. It`s very dynamic and "alive". Thank you!

Response from Rocket Languages

It's so nice to hear your kind words and how much you are loving the course. We wish you all the best on your Italian journey!

Still feeling my way through the course....I am in the intermediate-level zone somewhere, but feel that I have gaps in my knowledge. I decided to start at the very beginning since I don't know what I don't know. Although some of the lessons are tedious information/knowledge-wise, I find the pronunciation/speaking exercises very helpful. I am self-taught from textbooks, and only wish I had this course from the beginning. I enjoy the friendly nature of the lessons. I haven't had the need for Customer Service, but subscribing was a snap. The interactive aspects of Rocket do not work so well in Firefox, but are fine on Safari.

Response from Rocket Languages

Thank you for your review, Mike. We're glad to hear that all the audio in the course is helping you with some of the beginner-level knowledge. All the best!

I am just starting, the experience is good and you are fining yourself quite immerse into the language and your feel it is quite comprehensive language learning app. Maye the only think that can be approved upon the app is making it more modern with more picture and anything more visual. Other than that great so far.

Response from Rocket Languages

We're so glad to hear that you are enjoying the app and are grateful for your feedback. We hope you continue feeling immersed in Italian with Rocket Italian!

All in all the program is very good. I like that I am able to record my attempt at pronunciation and then hear it back. The scoring, on the other hand could use some fine tuning. I chose the role playing lessons and now that I'm using it, I don't think it is what I should have chosen. I believe I would do better starting at level one learning the basics of the language before trying to have a conversation.

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi David, once you have finished listening to the audio tracks in your Audio Lessons, you should be able to complete the Role Playing activity without any issue. Make sure to listen to these tracks and you'll be amazed at how much you understand in the conversation. All the best!

Good course, with a few issues. The module one sections 1.5 and up, dealing with articles, nouns, pronouns, etc. really need more development. There is a ton of important grammar in there but it is dealt with too lightly, and has way too much unfamiliar dialogue thrown in that is above level 1. This has been a major stumbling block for me. Level 2 hardly touches on these topics. It seems like Rocket dropped the ball on this section. I'll keep flipping back and forth between sections to try and make sense of it!

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Tony, thank you for your review. We understand that these concepts can be overwhelming for new learners and we appreciate your feedback on this. The Italian team will take another look at these lessons with your feedback in mind. All the best!
