Rocket German Reviews

Excellent!!! The only difficulty I experienced was studying by myself. It's very hard to be constant when you don't have anyone to remind you to study. It was also a good exercise for my english because I could study it all at the same time.

A very professional and comprehensive language learning product. It is engaging and has some humor which helps with learning. I have completed 17 lessons so far and I have improve a great deal.
I would highly recommend Rocket languages.

Great app with a great way of learning i am amazed

Having spent hours researching various language applications I chose Rocket German. It's an amazing, comprehensive course at an excellent price. Other courses cost as much for just 12 months!
I know a little German, picked up from travelling, but wanted to learn the language properly. I started only last week and have whisked through several lessons already and am astonished at how much I've learned - and retained. I'm not far off 70 so didn't expect to be able to learn so quickly but just by hearing and repeating words and phrases, they seem to stick so I wake up with odd words and phrases in my head. Of course, some words/phrases need more rehearsing than others but you can't expect to learn without effort!
The only issue I have, and I think this is because of how my brain is wired, is that when faced with sentences containing 'an', 'im' 'am' I really need to know when and why each is used; it's these little words that catch me out. I need an explanation of their usage to help me work it out because it's so hard to simply remember by phrase and I'm so eager to be able to apply the structure to new sentences. I'm certain that this is a grammar lesson that will follow later but I feel I need this now.
Listening to different German speakers is incredibly helpful. I realize that I've picked up bad habits and this is helping me to adjust my pronunciation quite quickly.
Overall, brilliant course. Can't recommend highly enough.

I tried other apps with little success. Rocket Language is a different story. I'm learning German more quickly and comprehensively. There is a perfect blend of hearing, speaking, and writing. My goal is to be conversational during my trip to Austria in the summer. We shall see!

It is the best. I am taking a spanish class and this has help me to boost my language.

I'm learning German with Rocket Language and thinks this is the closest experience to a classroom environment. The lessons plans are made with systematic planning and lots of love. I will purchase their package for all the other languages, because they are fun and make my polyglot dream come true.

I did a bit of the trial for German, and then bought all 3 levels because of the deal. Well worth the money for the week I've used it so far. I've been wanting to learn German, but the uni classes didn't stick, so here I am! I like that it jumps into using the language in natural conversation. Instead of starting off with memorizing verbs and their forms all at once, we are simply learning what we would be using at first when meeting others. I'm also very happy with the amount of audio, and that I can go back and repeat things as much as I like. I also like the rankings and points system, as I'm competitive and this motivates me to do more when I look at that sidebar. The only drawbacks of this program are the lack of forum use (communication between students) and lack of direct feedback from a teacher or native speaker, but I have English-fluent German friends, so I'm ok in that department! The voice recognition is also a bit iffy sometimes, but I honestly plan to hone my pronunciation with my friends if I don't pick up the accent from the program. This program is a perfect fit for me.

I have been doing Rocket German for over a year and absolutely love it. Although I come from a family where my Dad and a few siblings are passionate about languages like Latin, Ancient Greek, Italian, and even Mandarin, I never felt like I acquired the genes for it. Worse yet, I spent years telling myself I wasn't good at languages. I went to Berlitz to learn French without much success and tried Duolingo for German, but Rocket German blows them both away. I even have fun with the lessons. I especially like Nik and Paul, the two teachers who do Level 1. I never expected to laugh out loud using a language app, but I have on multiple occasions. (Please bring them back for more Language & Culture lessons.) Sandra, Sarah, and Mattias in Level 2 are great as well. In short, this really is fun. And doable. I WILL be fluent. And it will be thanks to Rocket German.

Rocket German is very comprehensive and helps you learn in multiple ways (seeing, hearing, speaking, writing). The grammar instruction is also very good.
