I used Rocket Italian for several years and the used several other language apps, however, none were as complete as Rocker Italian. Also, with the recent changes to the Rocker Italian format, I feel more comfortable knowing that it is using the CEFR format.

Thank you for being such a dedicated member of the Rocket Italian community. We are proud to align our courses to internationally recognized language standards such as the CEFR and are glad that you are finding comfort in this.
If you are looking to learn to speak a language, especially without living in the country, this software makes it easy. Rather than memorizing words all day and getting bored, this software keeps you interested and gets you speaking quickly!
Quite good although the programme is not that easy to follow which makes it harder for me to buy.
I need a simple one with less computer glitches. Although this ones verbal pronunciations are good.
I also couldn’t understand jumping from modules throughout the trial.
No directions on how to get back to programme.
Pretty happy overall with the medium for learning. I often use it on the go, walking or driving, when I can't check the screen, so the spelling of some words are not obvious until I get time to review them. Otherwise quite happy.
I don't know as for other languages, but Rocket French is very useful if you want to master the French pronunciation and improve your accent. Since French is a difficult language to speak, this course stresses the speaking part, a feature you are not going to find in books if you are learning on your own.
It's a good program and easy to follow so far. The free trial is a great way to introduce what the program is about and allows us to have a taste of what the structure is. I have been learning grammar from Duolingo and this program helps me with conversation and pronunciation. After many hours on Duolingo, I found this program reinforces what I already learnt and I hope it will help me speak French in the near future.
Ha sido una grata experiencia realizar este aprendizaje. Me encanta el idioma italiano, aunque tengo poco tiempo, en el tiempo que puedo sigo las enseñanzas y consejos entregados. A mi parecer, es una experiencia recomendable, sobretodo, para quien con poco tiempo le gustaría aprender algún idioma. Grazie Rocket languages.
I find the oral practice work very good and feel that I would also benefit from writing as well. [ like the instant comparison of pronunciation the most compelling feature of your product and the price the least appealing.
I like the format and emphasis on spoken language in the Rocket languages online courses. However, I was disappointed in Rocket Spanish because it is totally geared towards younger travellers going to South America, whereas I am an older person spending a few weeks in Spain. There was very little clear advice as to differences in pronunciation, grammar or vocabulary for the language as spoken in Spain - just occasional references. There were no systematic examples of polite conversation with an older person such as a hostess or landlady. I spent a lot of time trying to work out the polite forms of the questions and answers for the ones included in the lessons but had no way of checking whether my attempts were correct. There was no list of days of the week or months of the year which I got from a dictionary but it would have been good to have them included in more of the conversations - they're pretty basic.
An interesting experience and interaction for learning Japanese, a solemn language.
