I'm just starting, but already this course is getting me excited about learning. The teaching style is easy to understand, and I enjoy the flow of conversation, and pacing of the course in general. After purchasing Rocket Arabic I immediately went and bought Rocket German and Rocket American Sign Language... More

The grading system is all over the place. They have a colour coded system that is meant to reflect proficiency but it patently doesn't correspond with any of the lessons. I completed all the modules available, everything was correct but the colour coded system gave me 1 green tick and 4 yellow symbols... More

I only been using this program for a week and I absolutely love it! Rocket languages over exceeded my expectations. I was wary at first about the price, but already a week into the program. I feel like it will be well worth it. More

Great lessons, which bring you in at a manageable rate. I like the way flash card reviews are included with spaced repetition. Letters that are not in English are usefully emphasised. I would like some explicit grammar and better writing lessons... More

Rocket German may lack the polished visual presentation of other language apps but makes up for this in the way it introduces you to the German language and develops your knowledge and skills. The audio course content is well presented and comprehension and understanding of the course is reinforced after each audio lesson... More

I completed all French lessons from the most popular online language learning course. When I finished, I couldn't carry on a conversation. I chatted with another student online who had taken the same classes, and he told me not to become discouraged... More

The 3 rated review was not from the content in the program. I feel the lessons are terrific. However, I would like to see a company recommended approach to beginning study in the program. I began by doing the lessons one at a time... More

Rocket Italian has been super helpful for me. My boyfriend is Italian and this course allowed me to communicate in his native country with his family. There are some glitches such as sensitivity with the hear it, say it part of the course, and a bug with the certification, but they are really good about fixing things. More

I got Rocket Russian about a year ago because I wanted to learn it since Russian was my first language but I moved to U.S. when I was 8 years old. I also have speech deficit which makes it harder for a person like me to relearn a language as hard as Russian... More

This is everything I was searching for in a beginner's language course; writing, speaking, listening, reading, and most importantly, a one-on-one experience. I was most worried that I wouldn't get the right kind of instruction without a teacher or professor, but the interactive audio lessons are exactly that... More

I love Rocket Spanish. I've tried Duolingo, it was free, but It got to the point where they were teaching things like "The bird watched the game on TV" and "The cows cleaned the farm yesterday". I also took level one of Destinos, which a story you followed on video, and had a text book and workbook for learning other vocabulary... More

This is the most helpful app and course I've tried among all the other apps. The only glitch I found is the hear it, say it part where it does not recognize some of my inputs but overall, the app is great. More

No soy angloparlante nativo, tengo un nivel de inglés intermedio, sin embargo puedo entender perfectamente el curso (dictado en Inglés). El método es muy entretenido, combina varias cosas buenas que ví en otros cursos, y sin darte cuenta terminás la unidad sabiendo expresarte un poco más y de tal manera que las frases quedan dando vueltas en tu cabeza, que con un poco de práctica se hacen naturales (vienen instantáneamente cuando las necesitas).

The training is very good with practical everyday phrases to learn and repeat whenever I have the time. The voice recognition in the "hear it, say it" becomes either deaf or impaired of hearing even though the answers are correct, as the software refuses to recognise my pronunciation. More

The interactive audio is excellent however I struggle with the writing component. I am not sure what would be the best way to learn written Chinese over the internet, but I know I struggle with the way it has been presented to me here... More

The Rocket Chinese course is comprehensive and contains a good variety of tools. There are a couple negatives though. The main one is that the male voice actor's pronunciation is not very good. That's a huge drawback when you're trying to learn to pronounce a language correctly... More

So far I've only taken two classes in Egyptian Arabic and it's awesome ! I am so happy to finally be learning a new language. What I really like is that the interface is great, but the content is actually quite good too ! I love the fact that the person teaching you through the audios is super nice and very encouraging...

I am an intermediate French student, but I am starting with the beginner lessons as review because I rarely have an opportunity to listen to native French speakers or to practice speaking. I am finding the lessons very helpful to develop my "ear" and my accent... More

I am very impressed with how easy the course is. Love the fact that they break down the conversations into sentences, where you can repeat a little at a time. Makes it easier to learn the words and how they should sound... More

When I first started learning Italian, I thought long and hard before purchasing an online learning package. I did a serious amount of research, but kept coming back to the same option. Don't get me wrong there are some really useful free courses/utilities out there, but in my opinion nothing is as comprehensive as Rocket Italian... More

I've used many language learning courses, and have found this one to be particularly impressive. I think the writing aspect of new vocabulary is vital, and something that tends to be overlooked by other methods; the ease of revision is also a major point in its favour, through flashcards, repeating activities already done, and so on...

The guy, Alex, in the Italian course comes across as a somewhat of a douche. He tries to be funny by pretending to flirt with the co host, Maria, but it just feels awkward. It might just be me, but I would prefer if they just sticked to the language material. More

So far so good. The reason I'm not likely to buy again is that I bought both Levels 2 and 3 of Spanish, and I don't plan to learn any other languages. I'm going thru Level 2, which is a little basic for me, but I really like the product and am learning a few things... More
