Saudações,
Meus estudos da língua alemã com o pessoal da Rocket Languages foi a solução e o método que encontrei para contornar um problema pessoal que ocorria frequentemente comigo, pois a confusão da língua alemã com a língua inglesa me era bastante frequente. Assim, optei por estudar alemão lançando mão de traduções e explicações justamente em inglês. Ajudou-me um bom tanto e tem sido bem eficiente para reduzir, e em alguns aspectos até eliminar, as confusões que eu comumente fazia.
Grato a todos.
Marcos.

I find this an excellent in depth course and I am using it as my joint main study course with ProSpanish and Lightspeed Spanish. I have the best of both worlds: Latin American and Castilian Spanish. My only regret is that my study time is reduced with my wide net of study materials. Compounded by my studies in Rocket German simultaneously. I particularly enjoy the facility of being able to playback phrases and sentences that enable me to enhance my pronunciation. My studies are becoming more centred around this tool. With all three levels to cover in my two courses with Rocket I look forward to a continuing stimulating and colourful experience.

I love the challange that this product provides. It makes you think outside a normal learning experience and , I think, provides a greater understanding of the language in order to communicate more naturally

This product is amazing! I needed to learn German to begin my PhD, and having to already master several dead languages, I was worried about starting a modern language. Rocket Languages' German program not only helped me begin my PhD journey, but they are making the experience fun and so simple. I am not just spending hours a day memorizing vocabulary, but I am interacting with German speakers and improving my pronunciation and spelling. From day one, I was able to speak and understand German, even if it was only a basic conversation. I have never studied a language where I could communicate after the first lesson. If you are considering buying this product, please do so, it is wonderful and worth every penny.

This program has been very helpful for me. I studied German grammar with another book before using this program, but I found that unless I learned how to speak the language, I wasn't going to be able to remember vocabulary. Rocket German has been very helpful with pronunciation and a basic introduction to the language (after all, I'm still only on the Premium level). I very much appreciate the interactive lessons and how I'm able to repeat myself a number of times so that the pronunciation sticks. The only improvement would be to include more writing exercises. The only writing exercise in the program is to write in German a phrase that the program says in German. It would be very helpful to include an exercise that makes you write in German either what is written or what is spoken in English. Otherwise, I've very much enjoyed using the program, and I think it has been very helpful thus far! Regarding the price, I think it is fairly low compared to other language learning programs, but I was somewhat upset that I only had one chance to purchase the Premium Plus or the Platinum level at the discounted price. After all, how could I possibly know that I would want all three levels without having used the program for some time? Anyway, the price for the Premium level was very good, but I'm not sure that I'd pay another $150 for the Plus or $300 for the Platinum.

Really effective way to learn! I recently purchased this online and after I started learning, I couldn't stop! The German course is really nice and interactive. The interactive audio I was able to download so that when I am on the bus or waiting somewhere, I am able to learn some German. I enjoy the way German is taught using Rocket German, using audio courses unlike some other language teaching programs which uses software. I also really enjoy the games and flash cards that I am able to use to help learn.
Because I travel a lot, I like the mobile app that I can use on my tablet or smartphone.

One of the best sites I have come across, wherein I can learn a basic language at my leisure time free of cost. Its audio lessons makes it more easier to learn pronunciation of the language. Its PDF format lesson that can be printed or saved to retrieve it latter for learning. Thanks.

A fun and easy way to learn. Several years ago I started with Rocket German before a trip to Germany. Although I didn't progress very far with the lessons, what I did learn really helped with important things like ordering food, booking a room, getting directions, etc. Now I'm planning a trip to Austria and am planning to go through all 3 levels of lessons before my trip in September 2013. Its a really fun way to learn.

Although I have not been very consistent with studying, this is one of the best methods I have encountered for learning a language. I hope to start continued consistent use of Rocket Languages as I should have previously and I shall confirm within 4-6 months that this method is by far the best. I also intend on ordering Rocket Spanish shortly and hope to take full advantage of this method's capability.

Before subscribing to Rocket German, I had tried for years, off and on, to learn German. I read primers, readers, phrase books, listened to CDs and even took the first two levels of Rosette Stone, but I never really got much past the basics. I could read some, but couldn't understand it when it was spoken, and had difficulty communicating in anything except very simple phrases.

Now, with Rocket, I can feel myself finally rising above that basic plateau. I suppose one could say it was my fault for not working harder and that would be true. I didn't work hard enough. I realize now I am working much harder than previously, but the thing is, with Rocket it doesn't seem like such hard work.

The thing about Rocket, I think, that makes it so effective is that it is structured in a multi dimensional way that keeps your interest and provides the tools and exercises to accommodate various learning styles. Some times my brain hurts and I have to take a break for a day (just like working out at the gym), but I never get bored. Besides the lessons, I find that I enjoy the forum. That actually surprised me because I'm not a social networking sort of guy. However, it is a good way to ask specific questions of a language expert, share problems with other students, and meet some interesting people. I think Rocket is a great course and a great buy.
