Rocket French Reviews

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. I've been using this for French, and would certainly consider purchasing a package for another language. The free trial was also a great way of allowing me to make up my mind before investing in the course. I'd certainly recommend this to anyone else seeking an effective way of starting a language.

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. The explanations of the grammar points within the dialogues are very clear and the opportunities to practice speaking are great.
I have used several online French courses and this is by far the best, though Babbel is quite also.

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 app on iPhone doesn’t work property. After I email the customer service for a few days, the problem still has not been solved. The app is not as good as the desktop version., which is a shame. The responses from customer service seem slow. The audio lessons are interesting but the culture and language don’t make me feel interested about learning. There are definitely things that require improvement.

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. He went through the lessons three times before he became comfortable. That shouldn't be necessary. I decided to try Rocket French instead. In a few days, I was able to start speaking simple and useful sentences! This may be a matter of learning style; different people learn differently, but there is no question that Rocket French is better for me. The other learning program is total immersion with no explanations in English. Simple things like "de le" is "du" is something I had to figure out, whereas Rocket French explains that and it's so much easier. There is so much conversational practice in French that I don't feel that I'm missing out by reading explanations in English. I leave for Paris in a few weeks, and I already know so much more than I did a week ago! Today I will complete Module 1 and over the weekend I hope to finish Module 2. Making such quick progress has made me obsessed! By the time I go, I expect to be comfortable ordering food in a restaurant, shopping, and meeting new people in French! Of course I can't become proficient in such a short time, but French people I've spoken with are very patient when we try to learn. Merci beaucoup Rocket French!

it is good and easy to learn any language in any time any where just all you need is internet and your attention it is super easy i hope every one needs to learn any new language they should try this web site
with all my respects

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. It makes no sense.

I asked for an explanation for this but the response made little sense too.

I think somewhere in the Rocket system is a great app waiting to break out but it is currently too cumbersome which is a pity.

They ask users to write something awesome, they are assuming people think the app is awesome when it isn't yet.

I especially like the dialogue format, dismantling its parts, then putting all together. It is helping fix phrases in my mind that I used to have to piece together mechanically. I am hoping that this will lead to more fluid conversational skill. This is going beyond simple listening comprehension.

I gave the price a 3 star because I had to go online to find a coupon code that provided me 60% off the original price. I gave the customer service a 3 star for neutral since I haven't needed to call a C.S.R. yet

This course really works. I find the French phrases from the lesson automatically drift into my mind while doing a workout at the gym or driving. I took an immersion French class years ago in college, which was great for a few days but then a nightmare, as I could not visualize the words without seeing them and the translations. Rocket French allows the words to sink in, with its combination of auditory first and then great reviews and games. Pimsleur is similar, and I believe a great course too, but it is twice the money. The Rocket speakers are more fun, and they teach more vocabulary—so much that I need to go over each lesson two or three times to get it all. It’s worth it, as after only one week I am dreaming in French. Drawback: I can’t play the lesson on my smartphone without being online, and Rocket gobbled up all my minutes in a couple of days. Does anyone know how to download it so it can play offline?
