Thus far this course is more than expected. the introduction to every lesson is quite helpful. If all goes well with level 1 and 2 level three is looking realistic. Finally, I need to communicate with my cousin in Calabria much better. Thanks
I bought all 3 levels and just finished Level one. This is my first review and I'm glad I waited until completing the first level because many of the areas that I thought were lacking have been addressed. I am very happy that so much info has been added in the language classes. Of course, the conversations are good, especially to practice listening, but without the language lessons all you are doing is memorizing phrases, which isn't all that useful in real life. I do the language lessons with a pen and legal pad at my side to take notes and write down important rules and vocabulary to review later. Before I move on to level 2 I intend to go back and repeat many of the individual language lessons. It was tempting to just run through the course and finish all the work as quickly as I could get the answers right, but, of course, a lot more effort in really studying and understanding the material presented is needed. Expect to spend several hours to even several days on each module reviewing new info, grammar and vocabulary if you really want to become conversant.
This is excellent because Rocket records your pronunciation, which as far as I know, isn't possible on any other program. Also Dave is an encouraging mentor. This is just so hard for an old guy like me, his encouragement is helpful.
The voices of Maria and Alessandro in Rocket Italian are excellent. The voices imported from (I assume) Google Translate are at times incomprehensible (muffled or blurry). I've started using Google Translate directly on another tab to overcome these difficulties. Your IT people might want to explore the issue. Otherwise, the structure of the course fits my learning style and I am making steady progress. The audio criticism is not a deal breaker. I would recommend Rocket Italian to others.

Thanks so much for your review. We have emailed you directly for some examples of the audio that sounds muffled - as mentioned, all audio is recorded and edited in our studio, and we are having trouble replicating the issue. We look forward to hearing from you soon!
Rocket Language is something I never thought I would come across. Now, I can communicate with other deaf people, even though i'm not deaf. Thanks Rocket Language (and Youtube for helping me find that out) for helping me with sign language!

Hi A'Mayah, thank you for your review. We're so glad to hear that Rocket Languages played such a significant role in assisting you with your American Sign Language journey. Happy learning!
It's a very helpful application, and easly to educate to start learning..you don't have an idea how I like the languages from all some country.. Thanks.......good luck..........................................................................................................
i study italian very well..but as we live in iran ,it is not possible for me to buy courses and i'm so sad about this problem..
I have tried most other elearning apps for French and made little progress. I wanted something with real lessons that I could do when I wanted and with an emphasis on speaking and writing. Rocket French is exactly that kind of course. I've spent 3 years studying with a competitor and got more confused. After just 4 grammar lessons of Rocket France, I feel like I've got a proper understanding of several key grammar points.
If you want to really work on your speaking and get your pronunciation correct, Rocket French is the best on the market.
I would like to say that Rocket Languages is awesome because makes me feel comfortable about learning a difficult language such as Russian. I feel like I have had a immersion in the Russian words and culture, seeming to me as if I were living there...
I became gratefully surprised about the Rocket. They overcame my expectations in the best way!!
Wow!! Thank you for making Flash card vocab revision earn points!! It was a necessary evil before, that I'd tack onto the beginning or end of a lesson . . . I feel even more virtuous now that I can see the tally go up, and it counts towards my active streak!
UPDATE!
On a recent visit to France/French-speaking Switzerland I found I could understand much more of what I read and heard than on previous visits. Although often too slow to respond, when I did say something, I WASN'T ANSWERED IN ENGLISH !! (I take this to mean that my pronunciation is also much improved.)
I am not even half-way through Level 1, and am convinced that Rocket French will have me communicating meaningfully on my next trip.
