Rocket Chinese Reviews

Rocket Chinese has a lot of interesting features, but some don't seem to work as intended. I tried many times to do the testing...but somehow, it never registers when I do the speaking, although the microphone displays the profile it should have...lately the vocabulary did not seem to register eiter anymore when I put words into it.

Da jia hao!
I decided to learn the Chinese language because I've always found it quite interesting and most of the population here speak this language. I did not regret getting the full version of Rocket Chinese because of the extensive content that it has. Since I've started learning Mandarin here, I have noticed improvements in my conversational skills, writing skills, and, from there, I also have manged to recognise some Chinese characters bit by bit as I complete more lessons.

However, I think the structure of the lessons can be better if they had followed the structure of the HSK standards. Although I find the content really good so far, some words that has been taught previously appears again in the "Extra Vocabulary" section, which I think can be replaced with other relevant words like the lesson "Going shopping" did not even mention the word "shangdian" which means "store" as in stores in a shopping centre or even appears on the extra vocab section. Also, the Chinese locals here speak differently and use different words (although the same meaning) in their daily conversation, like we use Huayu (chinese language) instead of Hanyu.

In conclusion, I think Rocket Chinese is good for learning but it requires constant improvements to fill up the gaps that were probably overlooked.

I am currently living in China and can immediately apply the newly learnt material. The best thing about this course is the ability to speak and have it rated afterwards. I feel my pronunciation has already improved and I feel more confident to speak or ask questions. I hope in the near future, I am able to follow and have a full conversation in Mandarin. The only thing I regret is not having found this course earlier!

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.

Really impressed with the software. Am still daunted at trying to learn very basic mandarin, but it's a question of "how do eat and elephant: a bit at a time" and Rocket will provide the tools to do that.

In the first time i was afraid to not get the Chinese tunes , but with this awesome Rocket Chinese I've learned a lot.. and am thinking to have the whole course here when i get free =)
to all who are making for us these lesson , zaijian!! :)

I am enjoying the course very much. I am an older person so it takes some time to learn but being able to go back & repeat the lesson is fantastic, thanks

I like the variety of teaching methods. The character writing portion is great.

Rocket Chinese is definitely good value for money because the course appears to continue until you finish it at your own pace. You can take a break and come back to it no matter the timescale and for this reason, it gets a 5/5. I thought the pricing was perhaps a little expensive but still worth it because many other Chinese apps lose out on subscriptions because after a year you don't get any more time and sometimes it can take a while to get into learning Chinese. One can be enthusiastic to begin with and then realise they are not quite ready to learn it within a year's limited period and money wasted. This happened to me with Rocket Chinese, when I subscribed, after half a year, I was not really ready and lost interest and was worried I might lose my money. Well now I'm ready to learn and very enthusiastic and it took me years before it started to make sense and I'm now ready to absorb the teaching. I would definitely recommend Rocket Chinese for the reasons I stated. Other Chinese apps like Chairman Bao etc are excellent but are just way too expensive for just a year's subscription and make it not worth purchasing no matter how good it is.
