I'm having a blast with this program. I love the variety of ways that they reinforce the lesson through reading, writing, listening and speaking exercises, and I'm so glad that they added the hot keys that make it go so much faster. I've worked a few different programs for French, and this is by far my favorite!

Just started the French course as an absolute beginner, and I like it so far. It steps me through and builds upon basics with appropriate and much needed reviews. The voice recognition can be flaky for certain words, possibly due to my headsets (I've tried two), but is generally very good.

I cannot tell you how frustrating it is to try to use this program. The program has so much trouble hearing what I'm repeating back to it. The company's FAQ says to use headsets; I am. Then it says it's because they have it tuned to "native speakers." Well, what good does that do a person who is not native? I don't think native speakers are using RF! I'm not new to the French language so my pronunciation is not bad. I can only imagine how annoyed someone completely new to this would be feeling right now. If it's anything close to how I feel, it's not very good.

Response from Rocket Languages

Response from Rocket Languages: Hi Lynn - I have emailed you to find out more about what's going on. The voice recognition system works off a Google database so it should be very exact.

what is this language learning program. it is terrible. im saying the right things but it thinks im wrong.

Response from Rocket Languages

Response from Rocket Languages: Hi Ivan - It's likely that your microphone hasn't been set up correctly, as we have had no other reported issues of the voice recognition not working. I would recommend checking out our FAQs and/or contacting customer support with details of your system.

My product review should be understood in the context of a man in his 70s struggling to learn a new language. Before purchasing the premium version of Rocket French, I had used Duo, Babbel, and taken an introductory course at a local community college. Duo is easy enough, not demanding. It is a source of vocabulary, but one can put in many hours without confidence of using the words in speech. Babbel promised more interaction, but the speech sensitivity is seriously flawed. Otherwise the program is brisk and challenging. My college class showed that one's hearing in late retirement is unreliable, so keeping up with students less than ⅓ of my age was troubling.
Rocket French requires lots of oral practice, which the others lack. The tablet version of the program (I use a new iPad Pro with gobs of memory) has a problem similar to Babbel's, where the end of sentences are ignored. I can test this by just repeating the phrases that are missed and it translates those just fine. On my desktop iMac, the program works just fine.
Rocket French is more expensive than the other drills, and quite possibly less costly to create. I find that the method is engaging and leans more directly on the need to listen and speak. It has become my primary learning tool.

According to me it is extremely good because someone is able to learn the pronunciation of the words in French and at the same time learning to to write in friend.. It is a good learning tool really.... Absolutely awesome
