I am learning German and really appreciate the emphasis Rocket Languages puts on speaking in real situations. I've only been studying a few months so far at about 30-45 minutes every day and can already have short, simple conversations with my husband, a near-fluent German speaker.

The lessons are broken up so that I can have short practice sessions that fit into my busy schedule, which is great.

I also love seeing the visual display of how far I've progressed through the program. It's very motivating to see the number of completed lessons increase over time.

The games are pretty fun as well. I use them as a break from the "real" lessons.

Rocket German picks up where the (excellent) Michel Thomas German course finishes. Once you have learned the basics of German sentence structure using Michel Thomas, Rocket German gives you a wealth of vocabulary to use in your conversations. It's friendly to listen to, and the vocab "sticks" unless the typical "Learn German in your car" style CDs which just throw vocab at you, and hope that you'll remember a small percentage of it.

Sehr Gut! it's a really good course to do, even if no one you know speaks German, you can hone your skills with the mock conversations provided in the course. Excellent to use, and it keeps you motivated. Keep practicing, and you'll understand and speak German at your own pace. Lots of fun as well.

I am loving this course so far! I have only just started but am remembering so much and I love the voice recognition. I had been learning German in a classroom setting for about three years but had to give it up over a year ago as it was getting too expensive. Even though I have a little (ein bisschen) understanding of the language, the first few chapters of the module have been great revision and I am learning things I had forgotten. The price is great (especially as I got the new year discount) and the fact that I get unlimited access is amazing - much cheaper than classroom lessons and I can do as much or as little as I want, when I want. So glad I found Rocket Languages.

I was so impressed by your course that I wrote a review after working with it for a day or so and gave you four stars. After working with it extensively for over two weeks I am now even more impressed and would like to give you five stars on every aspect. The only word for Rocket German is brilliant. You understand that when the average person says that they want to "learn" a language, they really mean that they want to understand people speaking that language in basic everyday situations and in turn be able to be understood themselves when speaking. Your material is first class for that and the ability to practise phrases over and over again comparing your own voice to a native speaker is undoubtedly the best aspect of your course. For most of us, what we hear in our head when trying to speak another language can be quite different to what sometimes comes out of our mouths. Your course gives us the chance to "hear ourselves as others hear us". When trying to speak another language, confidence is paramount. Your course delivers in spades the ability to speak confidently in everyday situations using basic vocab. My advice to anyone looking at German language courses is this - if you want to speak basic German confidently, do yourselves a favour and invest in Rocket German. You won't regret it and the course is worth every cent of the purchase price.

I have been using Rocket German to learn mainly German language on and off for few years. During this time I have tried other language courses but none comparable to Rocket German. I never thought I would have interest in language learning, but thanks to Rocket German today learning new languages is my greatest passion. Learning with Rocket German is fun, its interactive, its easy (Deutsch ist leicht) it open my ears to understand. Thank you...Rocket German. I am happy to say today, "Ich spreche ein bisschen deutsch und ich lerne gerne." Toll! Donna

Last spring I took a Level 1 German course at a local community college. I purchased Rocket Languages- German to help me hold onto what I had learned and to extend my learning. It is fabulous! I especially like that I can record myself and then playback the tutor followed immediately by me. This particular feature is far more helpful than a classroom. I just finished my first series of lessons and have "rocketed" to the second series. Great job Rocket Languages!! This 60 year old learner is greatly impressed!

German Level 1 was great - detailed and thorough, moving at a good pace. I have just started Level 2, and it is a different thing entirely, and unfortunately not at all good. It seems to have been botched together from a previous, separate attempt at a course (the numbered Audio lessons are completely different in the lesson plan and in the audio track), and it doesn’t follow on from Level 1 in any meaningful way (there’s repetition of stuff we’ve already covered).

Most disappointing is a dramatic drop in quality of the Language lessons. The grammar explanations are much shorter, and leave gaps and questions unanswered. The lessons on Dative and Genitive are terrible - cursory explanations and patchy examples. Example sentences either display grammatical features which go wholly unexplained in the text; or fail to display the relevant grammar at all. Poorly thought out, and a frustrating contrast to the excellent Level 1.

Response from Rocket Languages

Response from Rocket Languages: Hi Tim - At the start of 2020 we revamped all of Rocket Germans Level 1 Language & Culture lessons (the ones you speak highly of!), and were it not for the pandemic we would have also released fully updated Interactive Audio lessons for Level 1 as well (these are probably a month or so away now). Level 2 is going to be revamped in the style of Level 1 soon.
