great application for German learning.
great free policy
I'm already feeling like I might be able to speak a little German, and sooner rather than later. As an auditory learner, I appreciate the focus of this course so much, and I am really enjoying it so far!
I've only just started my course and am on module 1. However I am really enjoying it and find the course much better than a short course I did recently. I find it a much better course for teaching modern conversational German. As the previous one was more academic. I would prefer if the mobile app was tweaked so that the screen remained always on and not slept while being used in the car. That aside I can highly recommend the course however.
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.
Fast, simple and practical, yet I feel after only one lesson I've learned a lot!
Rocket Languages is motivating me to daily practice with the many activities!!! I especially enjoy listening to the oral example and then taping my version. I feel that it will be difficult for me to learn German at 64 years of age, but I am motivated to converse on my trip to Europe in June 2015!!!
Great course - it gets you speaking from day one. The interactive approach is very useful.
Only complaint is the Language and culture section which is very dry as it's mostly lists and lists of vocab/sample sentences.
I appreciate the explanations of subtle points and progression of exercises (Hear it/Say it, write it, learn it, etc) to develop and expand my memory and understanding.

Hi Russell, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're happy to hear that you are taking advantage of the comprehensive and in-depth content we have available in our Rocket German course. Happy learning!
for practice sessions to improve one's ability to translate, I suggest showing the English first visibly separated from the German.
I Have Been Enjoying My German Learning Through Rocket German. I Like That Each Lesson Explains What You Are Learning And There Are Opportunities To Review Everything I Have Learnt Looking Forward To Doing More And More Lessons.
