Rocket French Reviews

I think the course is very good - I am learning quite a lot of things I hadn't understood previously. My only criticism is that in the 'flashcards' and the 'speaking' revision it never specifies whether to use the formal or informal forms for 'you' or 'we' (tu or vous and nous or on). I find this quite frustrating as I'm sure others do, it's hard enough learning a language without the negative effect of using the wrong form when answering the revision questions. It would be quite simple to signify which form to use: if you are to use the formal form just put an 'f' in brackets before or after the phrase, and then if there wasn't an 'f' people would then know to use the informal form.

Amazing lesson. I love the whole learning session. The audios, the conversation, the practice and the questions are all lovely.

This is my second language with Rocket Languages. Having tried other methods of language learning in the past, I've found the course a much more rounded experience, focusing on listening, speaking, reading and writing. Grammar does have its own lessons but it's also interspersed with conversation to make comprehension more thorough. Overall, the course makes learning enjoyable and, importantly, the conversations make it relevant to daily life.

Using the free trial. At the moment it has me as a complete beginner so I'm not really seeing whether It will suit me when I need to learn things I don't already know. Sometimes the microphone doesn't seem to work when I'm speaking which is annoying. At the moment couldn't say whether it would be worth buying or not

helpful nice i have never seen a web site so good

I have been improving a lot in french! Its a very good course and very fun to do!

I’ve been using Rocket French level 1 for several weeks now on an iPad. Though I think the format is very good in the way it introduces practical speaking without burdening with grammar, I am unhappy with the software itself. Trying to listen to a sentence that starts after skipping the 1st couple of words gets annoying, and the recording of my speech is too often very poor so that I have to repeat myself 3 times. This occurs on the app as well as on the website. I have contacted Rocket French, and though they are responsive, there has been no improvement, and there’s nothIng wrong with my iPad settings. I just think the software needs revision. I have started it and will continue, but I’m not sure I would recommend it.

Rocket Languages teaching platform is unique and very detailed , they explain everything and leave nothing to doubt , thank god I found them.

I have been learning french on and off for years and know a lot of vocab and the basics but was lazy with grammar and sentence structure. I have done a fair few apps and podcasts but Rocket French is the best I have used for building structure in all areas. I love it and would recommend it. It is interestijng , well paced and covers a wide range of topics and phrases.
Areas for improvement - As per a lot of other reviews, I can't use the speach areas on my laptop as it doesn't pick them up well (it's better with headphones but still not great) however it works fine on my phone so I just use that for speach.
Other niggle is that the French pronounciation of the American presenter/ introducer is so awful. The two french role players are understandably great but I'm suprised Rocket French used someone who pronounces so many french words and phrases so badly. It's less of an issue as you then hear the french role players covering it in the role play so you hear how it should be said but it is poor someone who does not have good pronounciation has been used for a good quality paying product - which overall all Rocket French absolutely is.

So far, the experience is excellent. As I am not a beginner, I am finding the whole process offered by Rocket French to be very good. I especially like the wide variety of exercises, including listening, speaking and writing. I am looking forward to making very good progress.
