Believe it or not, there is a magic bullet for learning a foreign language, and you don't even have to be a genius. The secret? Be younger than about six years old and have adequate exposure.
Kidding aside (though isn't it remarkable that children don't have to learn languages so much as simply acquire them?), language-learning takes considerable effort and time, and having access to the right program can make a huge difference, too
I'm enjoying this course so far. It turns out that I am rediscovering my schoolboy French very easily. New words take so much longer but I'll keep at it.
One thing to improve if possible. The special character screen keyboard does not have nearly enough French characters in it. Please uprate (or show me what I'm missing).
Thanks.
The program is awesome...never thought so much could be done without a personal tutor. Very well constructed with varied material.My early problems are with me! Will persevere and may make it...age not helping the learning process
I am particularly impressed with the conversational exercises at then end of the lessons where I can really get to hear how close (or far off) my accent is. I had high-school french 60 years ago, and am now realizing that my accent was way off, and I can now correct it before bad habits become ingrained.
I would benefit from hearing some additional native voices, both male and female, because sometimes Marie-Claire's pronunciation or pitch or tone eludes my tired old ears. More people pronouncing the same words and phrases might help me "average out" my enunciation. Otherwise I am satisfied with Rocket-French.
It is the best. it offers an oppportuniy to get the wrong words correct. The perfectionist ground. I have been able to say and write spanish in just a day. Its been a great help. Look, and from Ghana, West Africa and i can speak Spanish without the help of any teacher. Just the best.
Muy vale, Gracias.
I like the lessons so far, but I have a couple nits to pick. 1) The recording volume is very low even when set to max. I have to get very close to my mic, and then I get big spikes. 2) When Mauricio pronounces phrases, he emphasizes one syllable the first time and a different syllable the next time. How am I supposed to know which way is right?
I like that I can do it in my own time rather than being locked into lessons at a set time. It is also good that you can keep coming back to review the lessons even if you have done them a while ago. The layout has improved and I now find it much easier to navigate around the site
I have spent a lot on group courses and face to face private lessons, but there is nothing like having a web based audio course to keep you moving forward and for refreshing what you already know. I've used Rocket German to help maintain my German skills and I expect Rocket French will do the same.
I am having a wonderful time doing this course. The only hesitation I have - hence not all five star ratings - is that we seem to be going very slowly. But hey, we have to crawl before we walk. No seriously, I started this course as a faux debutant and I am finding the early stages a little tiresome. Perhaps you could think of levels of starting this course other than at the very beginning for people like me. Otherwise, I am enjoying this. yes, I know I have apparently contradicted myself somewhat - enjoying but...- but still I would like to be further ahead .
