Find out what actual users have to say about our courses through their Rocket Chinese reviews.
The Chinese characters are written in a font size that is easy to read. The voice recognition needs some work. I really like that this course is so interactive.

It's great to hear you are finding the Chinese characters easy to read; this is essential in understanding Chinese. We have contacted you via email to try and assist with your VR issues. All the best!
Rocket languages make it fun to learn. The way the course is interactive makes learning new vocabulary very easy. I listen to the lessons while I am walking or on the subway. It has helped me get the basics for surviving in China. The only improvement I would suggest is that the app is made available offline. In China, the app sometimes will only work with a VPN turned on. I would fully recommend Rocket to anyone wanting to learn a language. It has more than helped me.
Very good interaction, even though there is no actual interaction with a live person. The testing is excellent with repetition of phrases. One thing I would like is a vocabulary list for each lesson.
I'm currently only halfway through the second lesson, but it seems good so far. You should be aware that the main reason I'm writing this review, is because they'll give me $10 cash back if I do.
Note that there are a lot of special offers, and the one they email you may not be the best one available at the time. Also, if you're paying by credit card, and you're not in the US, you will probably get a better deal if you pay in USD, and let your bank do the currency conversion, instead of taking the option to pay in your local currency.
Honestly though, it does seem pretty good so far, and seems to be very good value.
Just starting out but seems to have very good interaction and structure. Particularly like the voice recognition so you can have a, somewhat, proper conversation.
This app is like building Noah's Ark. It's hard at first, but eventually the work bears fruit. This forces you to practice everything that is studying the language. Speaking, writing, reading comprehension, naturally connecting associations.

You've hit the nail on the head with that metaphor, Jaakko! While language learning can seem challenging in the beginning, for those willing to put in the time and energy, the payoff is really exciting and allows you to connect with people and cultures you never would have experienced otherwise. We can't wait to see where your language learning takes you!
Rocket Chinese has a lot of interesting features, but some don't seem to work as intended. I tried many times to do the testing...but somehow, it never registers when I do the speaking, although the microphone displays the profile it should have...lately the vocabulary did not seem to register eiter anymore when I put words into it.
It met my expectations generated by the online reviews, most of which often prove misleading. I enrolled for the trial period and was pleasantly surprised. I believe Rocket Chinese provides an excellent resource that, if combined with motivation and regular, sustained practice will lead the student to breakthrough into conversational fluency - and that is my goal.

I do like that the literal translation is also provided. It helps to understand how the sentence is structured. I often try to do it in my head but it's nice to the see it confirmed.
