Rocket Languages Reviews

Impressive site layout and audio pronunciation of words and phrases. Downloadable lessons are a real plus and are great for training on the go or while working out or riding my bike. The survival kit is a real bonus for focusing on specific areas or themes. Rocket will be a definitely be "value-added" in helping me to prepare for my move to Shanghai next year.

I would like to say that Rocket Languages is awesome because makes me feel comfortable about learning a difficult language such as Russian. I feel like I have had a immersion in the Russian words and culture, seeming to me as if I were living there...

I became gratefully surprised about the Rocket. They overcame my expectations in the best way!!

It's the best language learning app I've ever used (out of more than a dozen I've tried). The voice recognition and feedback for speaking Hindi is incredible and coupled with the culture notes in the podcast -- these attributes are precisely what other apps are missing. The podcasts are great to listen to in the morning as I shower and then I can review the writing and flashcards in the bus during my work commute. It's feasible for having a job in which I'm traveling 50-75% of the year because language books are too heavy to carry to and fro internationally and in-person classes are too structured and expensive to meet my travel/work needs. This is the best app to take on the go. I've recommended Rocket Languages to all my friends who are serious about making rapid and meaningful language acquisition.

Fantastic course! Thank you very much for the opportunity given to try learning the French for free at the beginning!
It's well organized and structured - as the learning materials given for audio and visual perception and combined with tasks and quizzes. Many thanks once more! Mercy

This is my second Spanish course on-line. It is very user friendly and albeit only one week in I am finding myself learning much more than the previous course (unnamed) I took. Rocket Spanish is easy to navigate and is composed of multiple learning methods. Well done!

Rocket Languages had been a good way to learn German since I started. I'm very busy right now and don't have time to learn as often as I would like to, but Rocket Languages provides easy ways to learn on the go which is great even if you have limited time throughput the week. I enjoy the tests so that if I'm away from learning for an extended period of time I can always retest myself to get up to speed.

Rocket Italian is a great primary tool to use in learning Italian. The interactive audio lessons are engaging and they do a very good job of getting you to speak and write in Italian. The language and culture lessons offer a more in-depth opportunity to delve into the grammar and other technical issues of learning a language.

Sometimes you see something in one of the lessons that isn't explained as thoroughly as it could be (it is hard to cover EVERYTHING without being overwhelming). A place where Rocket Italian really shines is the forum. For most web sites, the Q&A forum is a black hole where questions go to disappear. For Rocket Italian, it is truly a valuable resource for filling in the blanks - led by terrific tutor Lucia!

As a point of comparison, a few years ago, I tried the "big name" in language learning. It was terribly disappointing. I spent 3x on "big name" compared to Rocket Italian, and it was not 1/10th as good. When I decided to re-commit to learning Italian, I did a lot of research and demo'd a few other offerings. Rocket Italian is by far the most comprehensive and fun to use. Highly recommend to anyone who has decided to get serious about learning a new language.

Easy to use and very 'friendly' in their approach. Well thought out and comprehensive coverage of the subject - what more could one ask for?

I am picking up more French than I did in school. My wife speaks French and we can have short conversations just after 1 lesson. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to learn French. Love this product.

Rocket German covers all the bases. It provides cultural tips, tips on grammar and pronunciation. What I especially love about Rocket German is the ability to practice multiple aspects of language-learning: listening to (and imitating) native speakers, using flashcards to check memory of words/phrases, writing words/phrases from dictation by native speakers, interacting in dialogue. In short, it is a one-stop language-learning experience. After an introductory lesson, there are so many tools provided for reinforcing that material that it is virtually impossible to leave a lesson without having that material firmly embedded in memory.
