With many people (STILL) using this time of social distancing to learn new skills and expand their knowledge by enrolling in online classes, I thought I\u2019d take the opportunity to share my experience of learning Italian virtually. <\/strong><\/p>\n

The platform that I use, Rocket Italian, has made some great updates for their 2021 version, including new content added to the Italian Level 1 program<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m going to keep this brief, and in any case, I thought a quick<\/em> video demonstration<\/strong> would be better than a lot of description. Check it out:<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve long been an advocate of online learning, and specifically using a software program<\/a> to accelerate the language acquisition process. I\u2019ll go into a bit more detail, but in short, here\u2019s why: There is a logical, progressive structure<\/strong> along with forced, programmed repetition<\/strong>. It drills it into your brain<\/em> and it does so in an efficient, precise order. <\/p>\n

If you can’t practice face to face, at least you can practice online and emerge from lockdown with a new language! <\/p>\n

    1. Practice on your own schedule. Pick a time when you\u2019re feeling motivated, and never worry about missing a lesson due to scheduling conflicts.<\/li>\n
    2. Practice at your own speed. Not possible in a classroom, because all students learn at a different pace.<\/li>\n
    3. Practice on the go. Your \u201cclassroom\u201d is wherever you have a laptop, tablet, or smartphone. NO excuses for missing a lesson.<\/li>\n
    4. Practice by yourself. In this time of social distancing, it\u2019s the wise, responsible choice.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Why is it so effective?<\/em> It’s because it mimics the way we learned our first language; not by \u201cstudying\u201d it, but by actually using it in real life scenarios.<\/p>\n

      And in case you\u2019re worried about wasting your money, fear not, they have a 60-day no questions, no hassles guarantee<\/strong>. You can get your money back for ANY reason, even if you decide that you \u201cjust don\u2019t have the time.\u201d Although, who doesn’t have time these days?<\/p>\n
