Rocket Chinese Reviews

It is a good site for survival if you are moving to China but it doesn't teach you the traditional Chinese and it doesn't really help with reading and writing because the pinyin always gets in the way and the audio lessons feel kinda long during the parts for the pronunciation and I am from Taiwan so the simplified Chinese won't kina help (no offense).

I appreciate how there is a lifetime membership option for those who hate the headaches and stress related to subscription based language apps. I myself am committed to achieving fluent Mandarin, and needed an in-depth course that would cover all the bases. Rocket Chinese consistently exceeds my expectations in format, material, and professionality. I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to get serious in their language learning, or even supplement what they are learning with a live teacher, (like myself). It's worth every penny!

A very grand and intoxicating course, filling one with the spirit of the language being learnt. More immersive than others, with useful features.

This is the best language learning app if you want to learn to speak chinese

Would be nice to have pictures accompany the spoken phrases for contextual purposes

I purchased this course the last weekend and it´s very amazing and confortable. I´m studying chinese with chinese zero to hero, and i decided to combine with rocket chinese, the part of the speaking and listening. It´s very grateful this two methods.

The best platform out there to learn languages. I tried many, different styles, different methods.

Moving to an other country, Rocket Chinese has been a excellent addition to talking to locals.

NOTE FOR VOICE RECOG. ISSUES : The voice recog. works just fine BUT, if you have any problem getting it to start on your phone when using the app, you need to install the Google package for speech recog. but you ALSO NEED "Speech Recognition & Synthesis" plug-in (by Google LLC). If you phone is still not authorizing it (for example mainland China phones or certain OS), go back to the Google Play page and make a search as if you wanted to speak STT. It will prompt you to allow speech recog. to operate on your apps.

The course is well structured with good conversations & voice recognition so feedback is instant. It's great to be able to tune in & practice anytime, anywhere as regular, consistent practice is vital for learning any language, especially Chinese!
