At Rocket Languages, we do language learning like no one else.

We take you to the heart of the language you're passionate about and give you everything you need to understand the language and the culture like a local.

With Rocket Languages, you'll...

  • Have lifetime access to your course.

    A new language can be yours for life, and we believe your language course should be too. With Rocket Languages, you can come back in a month, a year or even a decade and still have full access to your courses. You'll also get all of the updates and improvements that we make for free!

  • Perfect your pronunciation.

    If you can pronounce words correctly, then you know you'll be understood by the locals - which is why we teach you to talk just like they do. With our courses, you can check your pronunciation using our state-of-the-art voice recognition system and listen to native speaker audio of thousands of useful words and phrases.

  • Practice on-the-spot speaking.

    Many new language learners feel nervous about talking to native speakers, so we've created the perfect activity to address this problem. It lets you practice both sides of common conversations in a comfortable, stress-free environment, so that you're ready to respond when you're out in the real world.

  • Remember what you cover.

    You'll put a lot of time into learning your new language, so we make sure you can remember it all by including fun and engaging activities in every lesson. These activities use algorithms to identify where you're having trouble and help you practice problematic words and phrases until they stick.

  • Learn how the language actually works.

    Knowing a few set phrases in your new language can be helpful, but will only get you so far in real-life situations. We take you step by step through how the language works so that you can build sentences on your own and actually take part in conversations.

  • Train your ears as well as your mouth.

    When you first hear someone speak in a language you don't know, it can be hard to make out even a single word. Our courses come with tons of downloadable audio tracks that train your ear to your new language.

    • Be ready to blend in with the locals.

      Communicating and connecting with people in another language isn't just about using proper grammar - it's also about understanding another culture. We get you ready for this with lessons on everything from greetings and foods to holidays and local customs.

    • Get courses tailored for your new language.

      A lot of other courses out there take a cookie-cutter approach, using the same template for every language they teach. At Rocket Languages, we understand that no two languages are exactly alike! That's why we've carefully crafted each of our courses to include what's practical, relevant, and useful for the language you are learning.

    • Stay on track and stay inspired.

      Motivation is key to learning a language, so we make sure to provide you with a wide array of motivational tools and techniques. They'll keep your interest up and your focus sharp so you can meet your goals and make better progress.

Rocket Russian
Australia

Living in regional Australia, I am unable to undertake formal Russian language studies, but this is the next best thing. It manages to cover all the essential language skills which is something I haven't found in a lot of self-directed courses. Self-directed teaching means my speaking and listening skills need extra attention to ensure I am always ...

Rocket Arabic
Russian Federation

Rocket Languages gives a good and easy opportunity to start learning a new language, its audio lessons are of much fun and success, one can listen to the lessons during his way to work, for example. So having spent only about 20-30 minutes per day (approximate duration of one lesson) and even not paying so much attention to grammatical rules (which...

Rocket Chinese
United States

Very well designed course, it is easier to learn the sounds in Chinese which is the most difficult part about learning the language once you memorize basic vocabulary.

Excellent Course, highly recommended.

Rocket Japanese

Having tried other Japanese learning solutions (Books with audio files and other software solutions), I can say for sure that Rocket Languages has a clear advantage: it is very effective and comprehensive while being user friendly and interactive.

I especially enjoy the Web version, voice recognition and the quality and structure of dia...

Rocket Chinese
United States

In high school I took Japanese, in college Russian and Chinese, but that was a long time ago. I needed a refresher. I tried other companies' courses, but especially for Mandarin, Rocket is by far the best. Its competitors either go too fast, go too slow, or are simply inadequate. Rocket courses have just the right balance between depth and ease of ...

Rocket Russian

I have a hard time finding Russian classes in my area and in-person tutoring services cost $40/session. No thanks. After trying more memorized-based programs, I stumbled across Rocket Russian and it's like a class that I can control at my own pace! It's challenging, full of information, and is one of the first programs that has me really speaking t...

I love that the program is available to me for a lifetime. I haven't explored the support forums much but when I have they were very helpful and quick to respond. I am really impressed with this program, and after studying Level 1 and half of Level 2 I took a trip to Quebec and was able to communicate pretty well.

I'm happy that I ca...

Rocket Italian
South Africa

I am finding the Rocket Italian course really helpful in learning the language. I have wanted to learn Italian for some time, but was always nervous that I might freeze up when actually faced with needing to speak it. But the voice recording and playback options online negate this as it allows you to become accustomed with pronunciation and helps b...

Rocket Arabic

Rocket Languages is truly amazing. The combination of grammar, vocab, and pronunciation comes together to make a very efficient, useful language program. I am currently learning Rocket Spanish and Rocket Arabic, both very well put together.

Another great feature that Rocket has is the 'forums' where students, teachers, and natives can s...

Rocket Japanese

This program is great for new learners and has helped me vastly in learning Japanese. On top of that the voice lessons are great and are downloadable so you can practice and learn were ever you go!

This program also doesn't just teach you words on their own it helps in using it in a sentence, using correct grammar, and counting. Overall...
