Rocket Languages Reviews

I absolutely LOVE Rocket Russian! I have tried so many other books, programs, cds, online tutorials, etc - and this is by far my favorite so far. I love that it uses a lot of repetition to build your foundation. I also love that it's not a monthly thing - but a lifetime subscription so I can take my time and not feel guilty about missing a day or two.
Great program! Love it! Thanks!!

It is so nice to be able to follow the German News, understand my husbands German friends and not to feel like a big banana at a dinner table!! Thank you Rocket Languages!! Now my big aim is to really study this exellant course(and be able to argue in German!!)

I chose to try the Rocket Language course (Hindi) because of its lower price in comparison to its competitors and the good reviews that it has received. However, I have had many frustrations in using the course. Things that have been frustrating, include, primarily: inaccuracies in spelling, inaccuracies in grading exercises and waiting for weeks to get responses to e-mails. Because I paid less for this course than many others on the market my disappointment has been moderated somewhat.

Your other languages may merit higher marks, which may be the reason this product gained the better reviews which you reference in your promotional material. I would find it difficult to substantiate their claims based upon the Hindi course alone.

I thought maybe this is a sort of Beta software where you are still trying to work the bugs out. At least that may be the case for the Hindi course. I might have done more to help you with pointing out the errors except your response time for the few times I tried was pitifully slow.

On the positive side: I have made some genuine progress. I do appreciate the improvements that have been made since starting the course.

Great language learning program. I've been using it to learn German and I have made more progress then I ever did with Pimsleur, Fluenz and Rosetta Stone. The lessons are challenging and the recordings are interesting. If I was ever going to learn another language would definitely start with Rocket.

PROS: I like the layout and the reinforcement. Some might say the course is repetitive, but I find that it actually takes that much repetition to actually stick.

CONS: The German narrators are a little too "peppy" which can get annoying, but that's ok. I would love to see the special characters (non-English) as easy buttons at the bottom of the text box, instead of having to open the keyboard every time. It really slows down the learning to do that.

I researched many programs before my decision to buy Rocketlanguages and am very happy with my decision to go with this one. I really like all the reinforcement they offer from pronunciation, flash cards, spelling reinforcement, explanations of masculine and feminine usage, listening and responding to conversations and much more. It is thorough and complete in its instruction. I chose Spanish as I have many Hispanic friends to practice with and love visiting Central and South America. I have already recommended this course to several friends. They have a free trial too which i took advantage of and is a great offer to see if you are comfortable with the structure. I am completely satisfied.

I love learning Hindi with Rocket Languages! The program couldn't be easier to follow. I listen in my car on my way to and from work, then I take the quiz at home. I love learning languages and I can't wait to master Hindi and brush up on my Italian. The badges really help keep you motivated- I like having something to work towards. I can't wait to show off my Hindi skills on my next trip to India.

Over the years I've tried to learn German through adult ed classes (results depended too much on individual teacher), Rosetta Stone (a very poor approach), and Duolingo (good, but missing some important learning elements). I love the multi-faceted Rocket Language approach and it's the method that works for me! Vielen Dank!

I would definitely recommend this for any one who wants to learn a language fast and have tons of fun. There are badges that you can earn with points.I love rocket languages! There are so many differant languages you can learn fast

I'm new to Chinese. Since I'll be taking a teaching position in Shanghai over the summer I've been researching, practicing, and learning how to speak Chinese and about the Chinese culture.

After three days with the Rocket Chinese trial, I decided to become a full member. Although, I use other Chinese lessons too, I find myself coming back to Rocket Chinese for reinforcement and to build new vocabulary.

As an educator I know that keeping learning fun and enjoyable is as important as the content.

Thank you for creating such a great learning tool.
