Bonjour, my name’s Marie-Claire Rivière, and I’m the host of Rocket French. I come from the beautiful country of France, which means French is my native language. That also means that I know just how hard it can be to learn a new language, because I’ve been there learning English. Together with my English speaking colleague, Paul, I want to help you to speak and understand French while cutting your learning time in half.
I’ve travelled the world over and have found that languages are a great way to meet people and discover new things. I really want to make your French learning experience rewarding and fun!
So let`s get started with a key part of learning French; how to pronounce French words with a perfect French accent!
You can sound like you ARE a native French speaker when you use Rocket Record, the pronunciation tool from Rocket French!
Rocket Record allows you to listen to the way native speakers say hundreds of French words and phrases. Then you can record yourself and accurately compare your speech with that of the native speaker.

Most of our French lessons take advantage of My Level, our exclusive testing tool. My Level has two testing components, Hear It Say It! And Know It!
Training your ear for French can be one of the things that French learners find the hardest to master. That’s why we came up with Hear It Say It!
Here’s how Hear lt Say It! works. A randomly selected audio track from within each lesson is played. After listening to the track you’re prompted to record yourself saying the word, compare the way you say it to the French speaker, and rate how well you understand what the speaker was saying. A very powerful tool to tune your ear to spoken French!

Now, all the training in the world won’t help you if someone is talking to you in French and your mind freezes when it’s your turn to speak! That’s why we developed Know It! The self-testing tool that really puts you on the spot!
Know It! pulls randomly selected English words and phrases out of each lesson and prompts you to record yourself saying the French translation, compare yourself to the French speaker, and then rate how well you did! You really need to know your stuff for this one but the benefits are huge in maximizing how quickly you can come up with the right thing to say when someone is speaking French to you!
