Honest review
The voice recognition could use some work, but it's fun to use and definitely gets you speaking out loud. I haven't really seen any features offered yet that's worth the price. I'm basing that off of what's offered for free on the internet already.
Another feature though that deserves praise is the 'Play as' feature where you take the role of someone in a conversation. It's honestly a 5 star feature on its own.
Thinking about this in depth is making me realize how much is actually offered and how much I'm paying for it... I could only think of a couple good things (and they're basically the same thing). I can't recommend this to a friend while I'm thinking about discontinuing use of it myself. Wow
This app and the website are fantastic. The speech recognition is really accurate -- and as Kelly says, "You have to practice the words aloud, not just in your head!"
Rocket Korean helps me learn Korean in a systematic, organised and fun way. I love the lessons and explanations, they're very helpful! The flashcards and other course activities allow me to speak and improve my pronunciation. Not only that, with the help of the flashcards, I am able to remember the vocabulary very well. Thank You!
I’m up to lesson 3 of Rocket Korean and am loving it! I’ve learnt the alphabet and some words from books, but it’s great to hear the language being spoken and have a chance to learn the correct pronunciation and sentence structure of Korean. Love the hosts too. Good price. Recommend highly!
I love the fact that you're able to partake in both sides of the conversation. Speaking and memorizing text are different things but the way both mediums are used together helps a lot. While I know that Korean romanization isn't exact to its pronunciation, the fact that you can play singular audio to practice is one of the things I like most not only for this language, but in general. :)
This is a great tool to get started learning Korean, conversation examples are natural and have very helpful detailed explanations. This is the most complete course of basic to intermediate Korean that I have ever tried. Thank you!
It's great so far... I love the prononciation help. So fun. Looking forward to learning the alphabet.
The course is simple and engaging. The possibility to record and listen the simple phrases and words is extremely valuable for an online course. I am enjoying it.
The overall experience is really great! My only concern or issue is the trainor talks VERY fats and it never hurts to talk slower so I reccommend you guys get on that or people may stop buying it out of frustration. But, that is the only thing I have found that is difficult about this training.
Really enjoying the lessons so far. The revision lessons at the end are great to reinforce what I have just learned. Using the microphone is so helpful too.
Hopefully my Korean skills are improving
