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 Japanese
United States

I love Rocket Japanese!

I've been studying Japanese for a few years now and the biggest problem I always had was that I had to keep switching between several different books, audio CDs, and computer courses in order to get a FULL education.

It was incredibly frustrating when I would finish a book or course and not feel like I...

Rocket Korean

Howdy from North Idaho, USA! I just started my Korean course -I really LOVE the Rocket method. As a software developer myself, I really appreciate the solid program. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this to anyone. Thank you for the great advice from fellow forum writers about keeping up on the lessons at least a little each day!!

It's been years since I've had a formal Japanese course, and was never near any level of conversational proficiency. I've tried other methods and courses to try and brush up on the language, but nothing seemed to stick. Though I'm only through the first lesson, it seems like this might be what can get me being conversational!

Rocket Chinese
United States

I speak French and English and wanted to upgrade my Chinese because of my wife, her family and friends so they don't have to say things twice. All I can say is that I look forward every day to blocking off that 40 minutes, making some coffee and working my a Rocket lesson.

The Instructors are great and my Chinese is getting stronger. I ...

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
United Kingdom

I have been searching for a Russian language app that allows me to learn to speak Russian at least to a good conversational standard, but which also lets me learn to read and write the associated Cyrillic script at the same time as learning to speak the words ... only Rocket Russian seems to allow you to do all three things at the same time!

Rocket Portuguese
United States

It is good for someone who knows nothing to be able to gain useful phrases and to practice the proper pronunciation. The material covers a good range of every day communication which is good if you are planning to use this for traveling.

Probably a good jump start to begin using the language right away.

It's hard to think how Rocket Chinese could possibly be improved. The content is just amazing, everything from the language itself through to very helpful culture tips as well.

The hosts are delightful, easy to understand and a pleasure to learn from. Obviously Chinese is not the easiest of languages to learn and progress would be imposs...

Rocket Portuguese

Really like Rocket Portuguese, you can take it at your own pace, but in situations you find yourself in when visiting the country. You are not learning pointless sentences like "the dog reads the book" etc.
