I think that it is a very helpful place to start if you are just starting to learn Korean, or if you just want to learn the basics to get you trough if you are going to visit Korea. I like how they actually test you and you can choose between Easy, Medium, and Hard in the Rocket Record. I find this very helpful since the harder it makes it for you to pronounce it well the better off you are, I myself have gone for the medium not sure if Hard is for me, I struggle a little in the medium level so I´ll probably use it on that level for a while.

Just starting out. Some problems. Recorded words and phrases not always clear and can't slow them down to hear certain nuances usually having to do with consonants. The hangeul lists the Names of the characters and has recorded pronunciation, but the pronunciation of the character as it is used is only listed in English with no guide as to pronunciation. for instances whether the 'g' sound is a soft g as in 'gentle' or a hard 'g' as in guest. My native speaking Korean frined has criticized the overall recorded pronunciations as a little less than realistic.

The course structure enables learner to advance at his or her own pace. Sometimes the sentences are too long and the pronunciation too difficult to hear - even though my hearing is excellent. When I do these activities in Rocket Korean and upon listening to Pimsleur Korean in my car, I find that the Korean sound system to be more challenging than the sound system in most other languages. Perhaps being able to hear sounds at a slower pace would benefit me until I know more about how to enunciate the sounds as a Korean speaker does.

While I use the Chrome browser as directed, I must say - "All that glitters is not chrome!" Sometimes the system slows down and requires that I log out and log back on. This is a technical issue more with Chrome than with Rocket Korean.

Rocket Korean is the best learning software for beginners interested in learning the Korean language. The lessons are very thorough on pronunciation and the games help a lot for memorizing. I really liked how there are lessons for learning culture to help understand the language more effectively.

its honestly a really good program but there should be a feature to let you slow down the audio down just a little, Korean has some completely different nuances so it hard to hear them sometimes when it so fast

Response from Rocket Languages

Thanks so much for your review, Sabian, it's much appreciated. Regarding slowing down the tutor audio, you can do that by clicking on the settings icon in the top right corner of your members area, and selecting a Tutor Audio Speed of either 0.75x or 0.5x. We hope that helps!

I use the library edition of Rocket Languages. I really appreciate that it is made available to library members like myself. I definitely plan on trying out the other available languages. I also really like the tips on learning a language. I found them really helpful getting the those discouraging moments of realizing how much work you have ahead of you. Thanks Rocket Languages!

I was looking for a good language program and after doing a lot of research I decided to go with Rocket Korean because of its value for money. I was not disappointed. It has a great interface which incorporates both visual and auditory approaches to learning. And you also have the flexibility to tackle the different types of lessons in your own way.

I love this program. It is way better than the other competitors and less expensive. the only thing is grammar sections. If they are enriched more this is a flawless program. Speech recognition and forum are two wonderful ideas. Anyway can you add Turkish language too? That is an important language.
