Find out what actual users have to say about our courses through their Rocket French reviews.
I have several French learning programs and I like each of them for different reasons. I like Rocket French very much indeed as the lessons are well organized and concentrated. I like how each leçon is structured and how the activities stress and test different strengths and weaknesses in my language learning process. I like that I am challenged to discover whether I actually learned the lesson. I feel that the price is a fair one given the depth of material that is delivered and I have purchased Levels 1-3. I would purchase Rocket French again. I do tell people that if they only want to purchase one program that Rocket French is the one to purchase. The language and culture lessons and the survival kit aspects of the program are superb.
I decided not to pursue learning French after paying for the course the week after I purchased it as I wanted to change to the Italian course instead. I asked for a refund twice through the help section and have still not received a refund or acknowledgment that I have asked for a refund. This is a real shame as I was going to purchase the Italian course once I got the refund now I don't trust Rocket Languges to fulfill their promises.
Response from Rocket Languages
Response from Rocket Languages: Hi Clare - I am sorry about the miscommunication here. If the wrong course is bought, or even if a Level is too easy or hard, then we will swap it for no cost. I am not sure what happened with our emails to you, please check your junk folder. In the meantime a refund has been issued!
Very good program, entertaining and keeps your interest. I definitely see improvement and that it has helped me greatly in learning the language.
On the plus side:
• I like the way grammatical rules are discussed in understandable, laymans’ terms
• It’s easy to learn/revise words and phrases
• It’s easy to develop your listening skills to understand what people are saying and its easy to develop skills in identifying what to say
But there is room for improvement:
• Speech recognition needs improvement
o Gives some poor pronunciation 100%, but doesn’t recognise closer attempts
o When sentences are long it often cuts you off
o Often (every session) crashes for no reason and you have to log in again
• Its easy to put all your effort into reading and writing – rather than developing listening and speaking skills
So far, so good with Rocket French! I have used Rosetta Stone French and this is much more fun and applicable. I was halfway through Level 3 of Rosetta Stone when I decided to try another program. Rosetta Stone seems to spend too much time on random, useless vocabulary.
Rocket French is way more fun & entertaining. I have been able to breeze through the first lessons, but am still learning a lot. I wish I had tried this earlier. Rocket French spends much more time on grammar and useful phrases.
This app is so remarkable for learning a french language which I was trying to learn for the past one year. Its so detailed and practical which is the best of this site and it truly makes the learning fun.
Overall a very good product, all of the dialogue is clear and of high quality. The reinforcement section is particularly good for practicing what you've learnt. Rocket French is one of the better premium products out there and I recommend it to any serious language learner.
Whilst I am not a beginner French student I selected that course to access gift beginner Italian for two of my seven year old grandchildren, who are proceeding with joy. The bonus for me is that I'm sailing quickly through the French course and learning a lot more than I ever did in the past. I'm grateful for Rocket's attention to detail, the beautiful pronunciation of native speakers and constant increases in vocabulary with interesting word lists which have jogged my memory from past French study. I have no complaints but only bouquets for your wonderfully entertaining and educative courses. Gracie tante/merci beaucoup!
