Rocket German Reviews

I have not yet progressed very far into the course, but for as far as I have gone, Rocket compares favorably with Pimsleur courses I have used. I like the available transcripts and computer material. Being able to actually see the words helps a great deal in getting the pronunciation down faster correctly. The recordings are a little too chatty and waste a bit of time better devoted to the language itself. I look forward to your Russian course.

I teach the "Theological German" class at the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary for Ph.D. students developing their proficiency for advanced biblical and theological research. To complete the course prerequisite of one year of adult-level German I encourage my students to take the 3 Rocket German courses.
They're a great foundation! ... und so viel Spaß! :)

At first, I wasn't entirely sure about Rocket Languages. I had seen reviews on other websites saying that it's teaching methods are comparable and even superior to Rosetta Stone, but I wasn't convinced... until I actually tried it for myself.

As a native German born, I wanted to get back to my roots and re-learn the language I lost when I moved to the states 15 years ago. And let me tell you, if you ever plan on using the language you're trying to learn, Rocket Languages is the place to learn it from. My mother, who is completely German, was completely astonished at my grasp of the language after using Rocket Languages.

Beyond being extremely good at teaching the language, Rocket Languages also manages to keep you motivated as well, with fun activities such as flash cards, to their really cool badge system, which makes you feel accomplished as you reach milestones.

After trying out this product, I can proudly say I'll be coming back in the near future for my next Language Package, French!

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.

The audio lessons are interesting and keep your attention unlike other audio programs. The exercises and transcripts are very helpful for reinforcing the German I am learning from the audio clips. I like how you can mark vocabulary words that you still need work on and how you can review them later from the website. Other audio programs I have tried don't even provide a transcript of what is being said, so it is hard to learn to read and write in the language if you've never seen the words! The games are also a fun break from studying. Better yet, Rocket German is affordable unlike some other options I have considered.

The rocket languages has very good language courses. I have learned a lot both in the German and France languages and I always come back to the side to learn more. Thank you for an excellent site. Baldur

Awesome web site :D now it's easier for me to learn German from my laptop :3 i just loved it so much ^__^ ...[Uh, I need 95 more characters... so here we go -__-] !!! Why the hell should I write 200 characters .. Whatever !! xoxo

Rocket Languages made me to reconnect with my Mutter (die long time ago, when I was a baby). She went from Germany to Chile, with her parents, and had five German-Chilean kids ( I am the youngest). I was losing the language and now is coming back and I feel that I can talk to her.
I am teaching a little bit to one of my grandsons, so he also has a connection with the past. I am grateful and happy at my old age.

Rocket German is a great German learning course. The lessons cover the most common life situations, although sometimes more examples of different variations of the same situation would be nice. I like that there are two indicators how well you know a certain lesson ("hear it", "learn it"), which is useful for tracking to your progress.

I like how everything is organized on the site. I like the features i.e language and culture lessons, My Forum, the tests, the games, survival kit, and My Vocab. For me Rocket German is the way to go for language learners. I do not know how else to learn a language!
