Rocket Languages Reviews

I like the way review is spiraled into several lessons, so the words really stick. I also like the multimodal practice with each lesson. I expected to have some difficulty picking up Italian after many years of not practicing any language except English, but I'm learning more quickly and remembering more thorougly than I thought I would. Tutto bravo!

I got this course because it was one of the few affordable programs that asked for a one time fee instead of a subscription. It has been really useful for learning Spanish. In a week I have learned greetings, how to ask for names, and how to ask for things. I still have to go back to previous lessons and review again and again so that I don't forget words as I move forward. The recordings of the conversations and the flashcards are the best since it's great to hear what people actually sound like when they say these words. The thing I'm most reassured by is that the things I've been learning will be immediately useful in normal conversation. Sometimes when I'm out and about I've heard some of the words I've learned in lessons 1.1-1.3 and I don't even live near a lot of Spanish speaking people!

I JUST BOUGHT THE TRAVELOGUE AND I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED.!!! This version does not give the sentence by sentence AUDIO translation: first spoken in French then telling you what it is in English, which DOES NOT MAKE IT USEFUL WHILE DRIVING OR WORKING OUT. THIS VERSION LIMITS ABILITY TO USE IT BEST WHILE ONLY ABLE TO READ THE TRANSLATIONS. THE USAGE IS MUCH MORE LIMITED!!!

Method: Love the repetition of the content in different forms (listening, typing, reading, role playing). I can learn the material in very different ways instead of just memorizing it all by heart.
Design: The best features are line-by-line audio and vocab. Very useful when I want to hear certain words/lines over and over again.
Content: Very useful and practical. However, Russian only has one level (please add more!).
Experience: I'm extremely pleased with the learning experience.

I was somewhat reluctant to spend money on a Chinese language course as there are so many free resources available online. However, I decided to invest in Rocket Chinese so that I could follow a clear, structured course, to help me learn useful Chinese before I move to China to study later this year. I am so glad I did, as the course has been great. I love that I can download the audio lessons to practise when I have no internet access. I also like how each lesson contains not only the interactive audio, but also writing and speaking exercises, with the ability to record my speech and hear it back to compare it to the native speaker. I have already recommended Rocket Chinese to others who will be moving to study in China at the same time as myself.

Terrible experience with the Rocket Languages. I have been struggling to find a motivation to keep studying but the boring experience that the platform gives you doesn't lead you anywhere. It's just a bunch of "repeat" this, "repeat "that" that you will be closing the browser before finishing the audio lesson. Not only that, the lack of explanation that the teachers give you and makes you need to find other places to learn it's absurd. If I knew this experience would go on, I would have chosen Google Translator instead. If I could come back, I wouldn't buy.

Hello, I am an English teacher but can speak 4 other foreign languages and started learning Japanese a few years ago. I studied it with Teach yourself Japanese, Japanese for Busy People and Take off in Japanese. Then I tried Rocket Japanese and I can say Rocket Japanese is the best programme I have ever seen. Not only is it very creative but very practical and applicable, too. Modern tools and features make it even more interesting, in particular for youngsters! Sayaka as our guide is excellent as well as Mauricio and Amy for Spanish. What I like most about Rocket Languages is that there is always a dash, a touch of culture and customs as well as nuances in different countries (for Spanish). I have already recommended Rocket Languages to several friends of mine. Last but not least, I wish all the teams of Rocket Languages success in the future work-I am sure you will grant us with some new, interesting improvements!

I've been studying German for about twenty-five years, including self-help books and audio programs, as well as taking lessons from a native German teacher. In 2009, I had the opportunity to attended an immersion class in Berlin. I recently began to think about taking another trip to Germany and Austria, so I decided to use Rocket German as a refresher course. I have been pleasantly surprised how quickly the program has brought me back to my previous level of competence ----- and then some. I plan on continuing through the Premium Plus program, and at some point in the future, when I feel I've gotten all I can out of the first two programs, I'll purchase the Platinum. In my view, the interactive conversations offered by Rocket German are invaluable, if you want to continue to improve your conversational skills.

This is a great site, very easy to use, and very helpful! I would recommend this sight to anyone . I am improving my Russian! Rocket Russian came free through my college linguistic's course so I could not be happier for the price!

I just love it! This program is very straight forward, and simple to understand, I recommended to the whole family.
