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. However I purchased this product to learn the spoken language which it is great to learn from.
So far I have thoroughly enjoyed rocket chinese.
It has shown me that learning an entirely new language from scratch is possible in a very fun way, all you need is some dedication and practice.
I already feel comfortable with my pronunciation due to the recording function rocket chinese has.
Can't wait to see how much my chinese will improve in the next few months.
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!

That's great to hear, May! Here at Rocket, we believe that learning a language is a journey, not a race. That's why we offer lifetime access with our payment model, so you can focus on enjoying the process. Keep up the incredible work!
I like the Chinese course. It is thorough and challenging especially if you go through all the exercises from the 20 to 30 minute speaking presentation and continue to the last - the quiz. I like the speaking the best. Even thou I can't seem to pronounce the second tone or the vowel u. But I am learning. I would recommend it to my friends. I do wish the comments from people in my course would follow the same as the reviews. That is the latest comments come first and not at the end! I also find the writing part really challenging. There is a keyboard to write in pinyin and you get instant feedback.
they have a microphone that you can speak
I have tried any number of methods to learn Chinese, but always return to Rocket Chinese. Really interactive and very good - even for me being a very slow learner.
I like the variety of teaching methods. The character writing portion is great.
After seeing many different sources to learn Chinese I am glad I chose Rocket Chinese. I got a great deal during Christmas which was definitely worth its price, and there is a huge amount of material to explore. The best feature that makes the difference is the voice recognition that motivates you to speak and practise pronunciation. Obviously, it is not 100% accurate, but it is much better than expected compared with other voice recognition software. The dialogues are really useful too, and the mini-games are pretty good at helping you learn the new material. The only part that could be added is some exercises to help you learn the characters as this is a challenging part of the language with not enough attention given. Only the Sort It exercises focuses on the characters but it is far too easy and not enough to help you memorise them or understand their meaning.

Thanks for your review, it's great to hear that you are loving learning with Rocket Chinese. Regarding your suggestion, we have passed this onto the team for them to consider. All the best with your Chinese!
I love working with this program. I have tried many programs, but none were as comprehensive as this. The Rocket Chinese course offers everything that you need to become fluent in Chinese. So far, I am learning how to hold a conversation, vocabulary, tones, grammar, hanzi, and much more. Thanks, Rocket Chinese, for creating such a comprehensive course.
I signed up for the whole package. I am loving it. I get to test my pronunciation and I LOVE the life-time. Sometimes I can do ten minutes at a time only, but 3-5 times a day I squeeze in brings it to an hour. I got so excited I spent about 3 hours on lesson 1. I plan on making the most of it, and the best part I can do it on my own time. As I am well disciplined, I need to get those 10000 hours in. Very excited!
