I have just started the program, so don't have clear opinions for the start rating yet...my only immediate suggestion would be to include the gendered article when you introduce a noun. I know it's adding to the things a newbie needs to deal with, but learning the articles at the same time might lessen mistakes later.

Response from Rocket Languages

Welcome to the Rocket German community, Barbara! Thank you for your suggestion. While gendered articles are an important grammar topic, we want to ensure that learners fully understand how this feature works. That's why we dedicate a full lesson to it in Module 2. If you're already familiar with topics like this, feel free to jump ahead in the course to a section that suits you!

I am in the last (7th) Module of Level 1.

Generally, I like the course because it is very structured and explains language concepts very well. I like that there are dedicated grammar lessons that clearly concentrate on building your grammar foundations. A complete opposite of Duo Linguo which has no grammar explanations at all.

Some people find the humor in the course stale but I have no issue with it (not great but not bad either, tolerable).

The course does a pretty bad job in all flashcards and speaking (translation) excercises when the "you" word needs to be translated into German (translates to one of "du", "ihr", "Sie"). None of them are commented so you just make frustrating mistakes. There should be clear hints what is expected there.

The lessons are generally very long (often takes an hour to finish) which is not great. I think they should be broken up to smaller lessons that are no longer than 30 minutes. Due to the long time required to finish a lesson, I often cannot finish one during a single day and can only do the remaining part next day.

The Android app has been rewritten since I started the course and it is much better now (huge improvement there, congrats to the devs).


The price is also very hefty for the course. The ~250 EUR I paid should be some family package with 4-6 members (with separate progress tracking). An advertisement supported version would also be appreciated.

Response from Rocket Languages

Thank for taking the time to share your thoughts on the course; it's great to hear that you generally enjoy the course.

Regarding the flashcards and speaking exercises, there will be a notation visible to use as hints for you to know which version of the word "you" to use. We recognize that some lessons can be long but that is because we pride ourselves on comprehensiveness, the lessons will always save your place in them if you choose to leave and come back at a later date.

We hope you continue to get the most out of your Rocket German course.

one of the best if not the best medium for learning new languages systematically. seamless and easy to use interface.
emphasis on speaking and many notes on grammar which is not found in different platforms.
highly recommend for people who wanna learn the language up to advanced level

The speaking does not always match correctly. You can perfectly pronounce a word and still get it wrong, which is frustrating as it holds your progress until you give up. Meine Frau ist Deutsch.

With the promotion, the price is very attractive. The way how it is structured is quite useful, especially it can recognize how accurate I speak, also I need to listen and understand. It is much effective and efficient comparing the normal one way learning.

Response from Rocket Languages

Thank you, Ling! We're so happy to be a part of your German language learning and can't wait to see where it takes you!
