Find out what actual users have to say about our courses through their Rocket Italian reviews.
After trying different language suites, text books and audio programs, I must admit that I could have saved a lot by starting out with rocket. The different features such as writing exercises and quizzes are something the program has over other systems.
I do find the goading unnecessary, however, whereby I'm referring to the pricing politics during the free trial. For 6 days they flashed me pop-ups, that I could save half the price of the $400 package. Then, right after I finally purchased the suite, I see yet another limited offer, which would have saved me an additional $30. That makes me question the integrity of the service, although I haven't regretted my purchase to date. Why flash the $400 price tag, like you are bartering at a Turkish bazaar?
The American accent spoken by Alex reminds me of fingernails and a chalk-board. But the Itialian speakers dominate the course. I feel confident reccommending Rocket Italian to others seeking to achieve conversational proficiency.
This curriculum is good...better than the R.S. course. I am able to learn Italian at my own pace, in my spare time, and I can listen to courses while commuting. I appreciate how the curriculum forces conversation, which aides in faster learning. I bought the first Rocket Italian course and I have used it for hundreds of hours. What a great value! I will be buying the next 2 courses soon!
I'm really enjoying this course. I've previously tried to use both Duolingo and Babel. Duolingo is good for learning vocabulary, but not much else. And Babel was just too boring! I love this format, how there's the base lesson that helps you learn from a conversational point of view, and then the complimentary language and culture lessons to provide more color and nuances. And the Play It feature is great! I would highly recommend Rocket Languages for whatever language you are trying to learn.
The learning process is orderly, and the instructors are engaging. Alex can be a bit wooden at times, but that is a minor issue. I need to go through the lessons again and again. Difficult to learn a new language as an older adult, but Rocket Italian is an excellent way to get started. The lessons provide plenty of opportunity to practice. You need to use the website and do the exercises. The audio is not enough for me. I like the daily point system which gives you a goal to strive for. The goal can be met with modest effort (not too little or too much is expected in a given day). I'm still in the first series. I feel I am improving, although iyou must trust the process to derive the benefits. Practice, practice, practice!
Excellent experience and lots of fun. I really didn't think my learning was going to be that fast, but the more I study the more I want to get home and study. It feels like it is getting into a habit and I am getting addicted to this habit.
I will certainly recommend to my friends that are interested on learning a language.
Sometimes you get more than you pay for and that is the case with Rocket Languages. They don't promise more than they deliver and they deliver what they claim. All for a good price!
I've tried the online freebies (I continue to use some of them) but my serious study of Italian is Rocket Languages. While I would have preferred to learn Italian before moving here, Rocket is making the transition easier. Setting my own pace and the ability to review are important to me.
To learn a language it seems you need to see it, hear it, write it and speak it; Rocket incorporates all in one package.
The instructors seem to love Italy and the language and impart lots of information in addition to the language lessons.
Grazie for enriching my time in Italy.
Rocket Italian has been a perfect fit for my limited time in practicing the basics of the language. I appreciate the different exercises and think this is a solid program for those starting out. Being able to listen to the audio lessons is available and great reinforcement when reviewing vocabulary and other terms. I would buy this product again.
I am greatly enjoying the Rocket Italian course (whilst continuing with Rocket French). Really glad I bought these courses - they are far better (and much better value for money) than others I have tried as they help you not just to speak and understand but also give valuable insights into how the language 'works'. Short of living in the target language country (or marrying a native speaker!) this is probably the best way of learning a language well.
I have a very busy life style. Working away a lot all over the UK. My mum's side of the family were from Italy. I've had the desire to learn Italian for this reason and also I plan to honeymoon there in 2018. Rocket Italian is great because I can download lessons and then when doing a long drive a can listen to the lesson.
I have been trying to learn Italian for a long time because my husband's family is from Italy and speak Italian. I have purchased books, flashcards, CD's, and other programs but nothing seems to work. Rocket Italian is a fun, interactive learning tool that keeps me engaged and wanting to come back to increase my points and earn the next badge. Alex and Maria make the lessons laid back and enjoyable by adding more vocab and concepts to the conversation to build on your knowledge. I am excited to continue learning with this product!
