Learn Chinese Online With Rocket Chinese

I am excited about starting this program. I feel I can actually learn Chinese and attain a level of proficiency that will allow me to work and visit China. I like the Pinyin. I like the audio and interactive lesson. I am starting this program with a very positive attitude.

Hola Amigos, My name is Peggy Wang. I come from China, I bet there are not many Chinese people learning Spanish, because the language system is just so different from ours, that's why a good learning program is the key to success.

Why I decided to learn Spanish? The reason is that I live in New York city and there are just so many Latinos living here. In addition "Me gustaria viajar muchisimo" and one day I'm going to travel to Spanish speaking countries.

So I just thought to myself, well this is a good investment to learn Spanish, then I started to search for the right way to begin with.

I contacted "class offerings"... there are not so many, but they are also expensive, they all cost several hundred dollars for a few sections and they do not offer the test run to see if you like their program or not. Plus you have to commute to attend the classes.

Then I started to search on the internet and finally I chose the Rocket Spanish Program. The good thing about it, "success" is free. You can learn whenever you want, wherever you want and how many times you want to repeat the lessons.

When I started I didn't even have confidence in myself to continue, and just thought why not, it is free. The program they offer is so good that only after six sessions I have already built up my confidence in learning Spanish, and I have already started talking to colleges speaking Spanish like a pro. None of them believe that I've spent so little time learning that.

Once I built up my confidence I decided to continue to learn the language until I had a grasp of it as good as my second language English. Now I have finished the Level one (Premium) course and I cannot stop myself to continue and I'm completing the Level two course and I can already watch some Spanish news and shows and gather the gist of the meanings.

After Level one you can be a good Spanish speaking traveler but after Level two you can sure talk like a pro.

Rocket Spanish it helps you learn fast and effectively, plus Mauricio, Amy and Carmen are just wonderful. All the conversations are so useful, their voices are great, the phrases are so good, that you learn tons of new vocabulary, expressions, grammar along with the conversations.

Once you learn one conversation you can multiply that by tons yourself. So do not hesitate, start now, act "ahora" and benefit "ahora".

It is helping me learn Chinese. My goal is to move to Taiwan this June. That is one of the main reasons I am doing Chinese today. I also like the challenge. Sometimes it is much easier than others. How can I learn Chinese faster ???

Rocket Chinese is awesome. I used your competitor (the one that advertises on TV) and it was a waste of time. They say it teaches you like a child. The problem is you are not learning as a child. It is too hard to go back and review a particular word or subject and it has technical problems. I'd think that for it's price it would have them worked out. Rocket Languages is the best language program on the market. This is the second language that I have studied with Rocket Languages and it is tops.

Alright, so I have been using Rocket Chinese for about a year now. I was attracted mostly by the price and the amount of features involved. I was not about the drop hundreds of dollars on Rosetta's Stone or Pimsleur, but I did want quality learning. There are hundreds of ways to learn Mandarin for free on the internet. I realize that. But I needed a place that could provide grammatical support, and have comprehensive lessons that taught a higher level of understanding to the language. Here is what I got:
-Good entertaining lessons
-Motivation
-An overall look at the language
-Chinese culture
And here are the things that I have noticed need improvement
-Despite the recent edits to the "Hear it, Speak it" I definitely think that it can be fixed up even more
-The point system can be more comprehensive for example someone that practices every day, reviewing old lessons will never get the same credit as someone who just puts random answers for quizzes, answers BS for blog posts. I know the end goal is to learn the language and these people wont be doing that but you get the idea
-Chinese writing section I think could definitely use some improvements, and a way of testing yourself to learn the characters.
-More video involvement and multimedia. If you want to be competitive with even the free services out there on the internet there needs to be a greater commitment to trying new things with video, graphics, games and whatnot

And that's pretty much it. I'm going to China soon, and I feel that while I benefited from having this course, that it definitely has a lot of room for improvement, which I hope you will consider.

I have so many things to say about Rocket Chinese I don't know where to start. How about the beginning...

I have been interested in learning Chinese for a year now. I have five programs, three I obtained for free and two I paid for. Of the three I found for free, one came from my local library, I didn't feel bad about making a copy because they are public domain, two I downloaded from the Internet and there was no charge.

They are all good programs, I know because I am very critical and skeptical due to the numbers of programs available, I felt I could go broke trying to find a good teaching program for learning Chinese. Of the two programs that I bought one was from a University and one is the Rocket Chinese language course.

The one from the University is good, but I expected much more form a University language course and it is no where near as comprehensive as Rocket Chinese, but to keep things honest, I paid less for the University course.

I feel fortunate to have found Rocket Chinese and I bought the course after being my usual skeptical critical self, and partaking in the Rocket Chinese free sample lessons. After the sample lessons I was hooked and I am still. The greatest benefit for me was the grammar part, because in the other lessons if the person I was trying to communicate with did not follow the sentence structure of the course material, I was totally lost. With Rocket Chinese I learned how the sentence were structured so I could then structure my own sentences, wow what a difference, oh yes, I still have a ways to go, but I am no longer a parrot, I'm a student. For the first time I feel like I can go to class, My computer that is, study and then go out into the world and apply what I have learned.

So what will you get out of the Rocket Chinese learning package, I don't know that's up to you. What I want to tell you is, learn from the year I spent searching for a complete learning course that will give you a fun exciting way to learn Chinese in a class room like setting and then start speaking Chinese right away and increase you knowledge at your own pace. You will learn the words, the sentence structure, the characters, and the culture of China so you will understand why you are saying the words you are saying.

I do not think you could possibility find a better choice for learning Chinese and you will not waste your time or money searching for what you want, Rocket Chinese has it all.

I decided to try and learn Chinese just for the challenge of it.
It is only a few days I started Rocket language method and I am very satisfied. I have already recommended it to all my friends! The small dialogues are very helpful. The phonetic exercises are great to help improve pronunciation. The Practice and level section is also excellent. I only wish there were some more games. Hope that we can soon have it on tablets.

I'm just starting but feeling quite confident! The website is nice, seems well organized and clear. Let's rock and speak Mandarin!!! I'm already thinking about learning Korean and Hindi in the near future!!!

Easy to learn and pick up. Navigation and explanations and simple and good to understand, which is great. I like the point system too and how the process of how far you have gotten.

Too bad my friends have no interest in other languages, otherwise I would spam this site to them and recommend it non stop to them :) 10/10

The ability to download the interactive audio and listen to it offline is great for making use of my time commuting on the London underground, then practicing with the Hear-It / Say-It / Know-It when I get home in the evening.
I hope they make the mobile-app have an offline mode too one day so that I can do the hear/say/know-it practice off-line too.

In the first time i was afraid to not get the Chinese tunes , but with this awesome Rocket Chinese I've learned a lot.. and am thinking to have the whole course here when i get free =)
to all who are making for us these lesson , zaijian!! :)

There are many good tools to practice Chinese. I really like the rocket record where you can compare the pronunciation with Chinese speaking people. The only thing that I am missing is that there should be a prepared vocabulary for each chapter.

What I like about Rocket Chinese are:

+Writing part
Makes you understand the strange writing system which the Chinese people use.
Video recording on how to write letters makes you visualize how you are going to do this, instead of only knowing the theory.

+Audio lessons
Its like a good conversation. Good mood. Nice personalities. Possible to upload to mobile.

+Design
Simple. Progress is showed at the top and give you a little bit more motivation.

+Culture
Interesting reading throughout the learning. Makes you understand China a little bit more.

Rocket Languages seems to be a way to help a learner to developing a courant vocabulary and sentences of daily usage structures of the Mandarin language.
I enjoyed working with the sound tracks during the time I have free for my language study. I am also happy that I have my lessons so that I may go over all of them once or twice again, when I fell the time to do so.

When I use Rocket Language I am totally absorbed and unaware of what is going on around me. The dialogue is written as if someone is actually talking to me and dotted with humour that makes me smile and lightens the learning. Thank you Team.

Konnichiwa, O genki desu ka?

My name is Lucas Broadway, I am 22 years old and I reside in Kentucky in the United States. I have worked in a Japanese based automotive industry for over 4 years and it has always been a dream of mine to learn another language, especially Japanese.

I found it rather intimidating to learn a new language after I had researched other teaching courses – some taught you how to speak but not to read or write, while others rushed through the beginning stages of the teachings and moved straight to the more advanced and intermediate courses. My hope was almost gone until I came across the Rocket Japanese website.

What a relief it was to hear friendly voices teaching a wonderful language in such an easy to follow, easy to learn format. Words cannot explain how simple it is to learn Japanese with this program. If you are struggling to find something that can easily teach and gingerly walk you through a new language then Rocket Japanese needs to be your one stop shop. You will never again have to worry about being late for another lesson or forgetting what you’ve already learned. This program is like sitting down with two close friends and being taught easily and successfully what the Japanese language is all about.

No more useless memorizations or boring drills, just the facts of what you need to know in an understandable format.

If you haven’t yet purchased this program then you are robbing from yourself by not taking advantage of what this great team has to offer.

Thank you Rocket Japanese and your wonderful team for all you have done to help me learn the beautiful Japanese language. Thank you for allowing me to share my testimonial with you.
Have a great day. God bless

I spent two semesters studying Spanish and could understand half of a conversation but I could not speak more than a few words. The interactive lessons helped me become more confident in speaking Spanish without becoming embarrassed in front of others when I messed up. It was just what I was looking for to help me progress in learning and speaking Spanish.

This is Denny Van Deman.

I was delighted to received my copy of Rocket Spanish and get started learning a new language. My main reason for wanting to learn Spanish is that my daughter is married to a Nicaraguan and when I visit Nicaragua I want to be able to converse with his family and friends.

I have been practicing what I have learned with the Spanish speaking people in my community. From the conversations, to the language instruction, I have really begun to learn this new language.

I would highly recommend Rocket Spanish to anyone who wants to learn the language. It is a fun and informative way to learn. Thank you.

I love this program. It is way better than the other competitors and less expensive. the only thing is grammar sections. If they are enriched more this is a flawless program. Speech recognition and forum are two wonderful ideas. Anyway can you add Turkish language too? That is an important language.

Hello Rocket Spanish. My name is Stephanie Miller and I just wanted to take a few minutes and tell you how much I've been enjoying the program. I've been using Rocket Spanish lessons for little over a month now and I'm really impressed by them. Not only does the style of teaching makes sense, but it's easy to follow and its actually pretty fun.

I've always wanted to learn Spanish; actually for a few years now I've been working on it. I've purchased and rented various programs to get started. I've spent hours and hours searching for online Spanish tutorials. I've even found some free websites that had some free videos and lessons to watch and some games to play, but they can only take you so far, and without the context and hearing it in the conversation it's hard to grasp. You know, someone can tell you something is the way it is over and over but until you actually apply the rule in practice you won't really get it, and that's what's so great about Rocket Spanish.

It's full of practical applications and ways to practice conversational Spanish. And in addition to that, it's convenient to use, portable, accessible from any PC. I can listen to it in my car, login and listen at work, or at home.

I would most definitely recommend the Rocket Languages to anybody just for the convenience, accessibility and the plain fun that it provides in learning a new language. Within the first few weeks I was thrilled about what I had already grasped. I'm confident that it will provide the same effect for others.

I think it's a worthy investment for somebody who really wants to learn a foreign language and I thank you very much for everything that you guys have done.

Your customer service is excellent as well. Thanks a lot.

I wish there was a second level Rocket Hindi course for after I complete and review and review this first one. It's great that my account still gets all of the improvements and updates that occurred after I purchased it. It makes me feel like Rocket Languages really is focused on their customers learning the language and not on getting people to continuously pay money for upgrades etc. Thanks!

Hi, this is Joseph Seward I want to leave a testimonial. I live in Utah and work in California as a manager of a construction company, and I wanted to learn some Spanish so I could talk with a lot of Spanish speaking workers that we have here. I ordered Rocket Spanish about six months ago I've gone through all of the lessons.

I have a basic speaking knowledge right now of the language. I can carry on a basic conversation with the workers, I can meet someone new, I can ask them how they are, where they are from, I can shop at some of the local markets here, I can order in a restaurant. It is an excellent program, it is very simple it's very quick you can listen on your way to work, you can listen to it on your lunch hour, they are excellent, excellently constructed and they really give you a working knowledge of the language. I would highly recommend them to anyone else who is going on a trip to Mexico or just wants to be able communicate a little bit better.

It has truly helped me out on my job and I plan on going through them again and probably go through it three or four times. I really appreciate Rocket Spanish and I highly recommend it. Thank you.

Very challenging course, great tools to learn with and I plan on taking more until the end. Great to have a course you can do at your own pace. Start with a spark until it turns into white heat to finish.

I purchased Rocket Hindi and have found it to be an amazing language-learning experience. It is a very fun and engaging way to learn a language, and the price is much more reasonable than competitors. If you want to learn a language, Rocket Languages is the best choice the whole way around!

The great thing about this program is it gives you multiple ways to learn, and doesn't leave you abandoned out of your native language. Whether you learn through conversation, memorization, or association either auditory or visual, Rocket language has a way for you to excel.

Hello, I just would like to extend my gratitude to you for offering me the continuation of the free lessons. I am so excited to have the opportunity to learn Spanish in the best way I thought, Rocket Spanish! I want you to know that I am very appreciative of the free lessons trial, and the way you teach in Rocket Spanish has made learning Spanish so fun and easy. English is non-native to me since I'm a Vietnamese so I had to learn it before in school when I came over to the United States and it was hard even though I was only a sixth Grader then and had to take English as a Second Language for three straight years,

But I found that the way you taught (even though I think the whole package will be a lot better when I have enough to buy it online) were so fun, easy, and best of all, the words stay in my brain for the last two weeks. I'm not sure what hidden method you've used for that powerful touch on my memory, but it worked so well that I've learned so much more in the past two weeks with your free lessons than what my college professor taught me for two months (I quit the semester early because it was boring and I had difficulty keeping up with her pace and couldn't get any help in class).

In my case, I was hooked with your learning method from the free lessons I got off the website, however I couldn't yet afford $99 (even though I think it's worth at least $500) so I was bummed out when the free lessons ended. However you've started to offer me yet another free lesson and I was so impressed with it like other lessons before. So I'm now saving up the money, and hopefully by next month I will be able to purchase the download version and continue with what I like.

In writing this long email, I just want you to know what an awesome product this is. For me it's ranked number 1 out there because your method is just beyond belief, it got me memorize the words for so long, and your pronunciation were so clear and a piece of cake to follow. Please keep up the good work and thank you for such a quality product; it's better what you've advertised on the website.

Thank you for giving me an opportunity to learn Spanish the best way! From the number 1 fan of your Rocket Spanish program.

Hi I'm Dawn Moreno I'm a 44 year-old New Mexico resident. I hear it's suppose to be really difficult at my age to learn a new language, but I bought the Rocket Sign Language program, I wanted to learn just for fun and I absolutely could not believe how easy it was. You don't even have to study with this program.

The videos are very high quality; you can slow them down, or keep repeating them over and over, till you get a sign down pat. This is the easiest way I can imagine to possibly learn Sign Language.

The price is extremely low for a program of this high quality. This program could easily sell for a few hundred dollars.

Rocket Sign Language is fun, it's easy, affordable, there's no studying involved; from day one you start signing. Even somebody, at my age, can pick this up rather quickly. So I'm extremely happy with the program.

I just wanted to say I'm a very tough consumer; if I'm not happy with something, I'll tell ya, you'll hear from me, but with this Rocket Sign Language program, I am thrilled with it. I've told all of my friends about it, my husband couldn't believe that after my first lesson I was actually doing signs. It's just a really wonderful program.

Also I really like the support forum, I think it's neat that there's a message board where I can meet and talk to other people who are also signing. Anyway thank you so much Rocket Sign Language for a great program, I really appreciate it.

Rocket Japanese is an excellent, affordable way to learn Japanese. Sayaka and Kenny work together quite well, though sometimes their interactions seem a bit fake. This program is great for those who know next-to-nothing about the language they want to learn, like me.

I was introduced to Rocket Languages through my local library. This is another reason that Rocket Languages is AWESOME! Persons with limited financial resources can experience this phenomenal learning language tool. I completed the available course lessons several years ago. However, I continue to log in and learn new things. I do this several ways. I can always review the lessons and take my tests over. I can also read Mauricio's learning tips/tools. I can review my own notes that I took and saved and I can still add new notes. Also, the forum is AWESOME! I use it to learn, to practice writing in Spanish (my chosen language) and I have asked questions with AWESOME results. Rocket Language continues to provide me challenges. This keeps me excited, interested, and learning new Spanish every day. Thank you for making this AWESOME material available to our (still quite free) local library's. YOU ROCK!

Ich lerne gerne. The lessons are fun and Nik and Paul are funny. They really try to make the experience hands-on (so to speak) and enjoyable. I can hardly wait to complete a lesson so I move on to the next one!

Rocket Japanese has been an excellent way to review all the things I learned in Country. Great for refreshing your memory on specific vocabulary sets. Well organized so it's easy to hone in on exactly what you want to cover at any given point in time. By far superior to Rosetta Stone.
