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 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 States

I took the free course in Rocket Russian and I must say that taking just the free lessons I have learned how to say some important Russian phrases and I am able to speak those phrases just like a native speaker. Just a few days ago I didn't know even the first word in Russian. However just after a few lessons I can say several words. Rocket Russi...

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 French
Canada

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 French

Rocket French is absolutely the best online language learning programme that I have ever tried in my life. Comparing with Rosetta Stone or Pimsleur's French products, I think this is more comprehensive, interactive and interesting as the hosts of Rocket French introduce you to French language and culture with detailed explanations. As for the games...

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 Japanese
Italy

I've tried out many apps to learn Japanese, and no matter how many I tried, I always come back to Rocket Languages!

Unlike many other apps, once you get Rocket Japanese your membership is lifelong, no need to update your subscription. That's a really worthwhile investment. Ah, and of course their learning method and organization of studi...

Rocket Italian
Australia

I bought Rocket Languages to learn Italian. I have found it an excellent resource especially with the microphone and pronunciation rating. With my Aussie accent the program makes me more aware of the way I need to speak for a 100% score on my speech.

The program is extensive and now that I am back from my Italian Holiday I look forwar...

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...

After marrying my husband (who is Korean) I moved to South Korea and began the process of learning Korean. Rocket Korean is a very affordable and enjoyable way to learn Korean; it contains common phrases that are actually used in everyday conversation, and also has several methods to make sure the information sticks after you finish the lesson.
