Rocket Hindi Reviews

I used to be terrible at learning languages at school. And also Hindi was hard in the beginning, but once I got the grips on it, it was so much fun with Rocket Hindi. There are multiple ways to learn, and I also keep a notebook (offline). The combination of all of that really helps.

I was looking at various Hindi apps/books, but was having difficulty with teaching myself a language from scratch. I did the Rocket Hindi trial and started to finally feel like I was making progress with my learning. I am excited to continue to learn Hindi and am confident this program will give me a solid start.

It's interesting that the lessons are arranged in a way where you start with casual phrases and then moves on to more specific ones. I particularly like the Survival Kits as well. It is good that the package both has spoken and written lessons so that you know the basics of both.

Amazing hindi tutorials ever!!! I learn hindi from rocket language start from zero. Now at least I can speak hindi to my husband who is an Indian everyday. And this help me a lot to have conversations with my in law. bahoot bahoot Dhanyavaadh

What I love about the course is that even in the very first lessons I started to say simple things, as you learn useful words that you can use in any situation. That really boosted my confidence and it helped me to stay motivated to continue the course.
Also it is interesting. You can do the dialogues playing the role of one of the speakers. That is very useful as you can start to feel at home with the language. It is like really having this conversation with someone.
It is not difficult, as words and sentences are repeated a lot and that helps me to remember. Every new lesson there is a review of the former lesson and the new lesson uses many of the words you already know, so you can understand fairly well what is being said.
I try sometimes to find some free courses on the internet, but this course is worth every penny! Last but not least, when I pay for something it helps me to be more serious about learning :)

I am pleasantly surprised at the pace that I'm learning Hindi! Especially, after traveling to India multiple times and never fully understanding the pronunciations of words. It is like having your own private tutor in the comfort of your home.

I enjoy learning the Hindi language with Rocket Hindi.

Rocket Hindi has been extremely helpful for my travels through North India. I came into the country knowing absolutely zero Hindi and now I seem to picking up words, phrases, and sentence structure rather quickly

You should try as many resources as possible when learning a new language. Prior to Rocket Languages, I consulted a textbook, Rosetta Stone software, and Pimsleur audio lessons. The Rocket Languages program is the most balanced approach, when it comes to learning styles.

Textbook
+ Index and dictionary
+ Many opportunities for explanation and background information
- Very linear
- Not immersive

Rosetta Stone
+ The most vocabulary
+ Visual reinforcement through images
+ Very slick interface
- No English
- No explanations
- Images are bad at expressing multiple ideas
- Images are bad at expressing time and use of tenses
- The grading scale is unhelpful

Audible
+ Efficient explanations
+ Easy progression in small steps
+ Lots of repetition
- The reading lessons are tacked on at the end
- Poor exposure to the written word
- Poor explanation of tenses

Rocket Languages
+ Listening, Reading, and Speaking functionality is strongly integrated
+ High quality audio
+ PDF handouts and downloads make it easy to learn away from the computer
+ Curriculum offers multiple definitions, when appropriate
- The progression is a little fast
- Needs more repetition within the audio lessons
- Maybe pair the audio lessons with a slideshow for visual reinforcement?

Rocket Languages is the best value, when compared to other learning solutions. I will go to Rocket Languages first when I try my next language.

I was able to start speaking with fluent speakers after taking two lessons. There is a lot of speaking practice in this course. After I hear the teacher speak, I can record myself saying the same thing and then compare my speaking to the teacher's speaking. This course has given me the confidence I need to actually speak with others. I have studied a lot of online Hindi courses and read Hindi books before, but this course has gotten me to speak Hindi after the first two lessons!
