Rocket French Reviews

A generally excellent course - I love the structure of core lessons supported by reinforcement activities, and the fact that you can break up your learning into conversation-based and grammar-based modules. There is a good balance between formal grammar (in the Language and Culture lessons) and the core conversational modules. I like the way sentences are broken down by the speakers and there is a chance to repeat the whole conversation yourself.
The only problem has been the voice recording, which is sometimes faulty - it seems to not pick up what you say, even using the microphone, or to judge you poorly even on simple words such as "tout". I have studied French before so I know with words like that that I'm pronouncing them correctly, but the system rates me down. This problem seems quite random so I can only think it's a software problem. If it had not been for this, I would have rated Rocket French 5 stars all round. It is still a very good course though.

Although I've been with French for several months before, the free lessons of Rocket French are still good reviews. Certainly more useful than Assimil so far. I unfortunately don't have the funds to buy the full course right now, but I certainly would if I could!

the live chat is awesome its helpful and you are talking to a friendly person it is the best they are nice and they help you find free lessons so you dont have to pay and they undersand everything that you say,and you can learn any language.I love this website

Just started the French course as an absolute beginner, and I like it so far. It steps me through and builds upon basics with appropriate and much needed reviews. The voice recognition can be flaky for certain words, possibly due to my headsets (I've tried two), but is generally very good.

Need to tell you that the customer services has not been used so therefore I cannot comment, I really like the programme but due to circumstances I havent had too much time to get involved with the programme to make a difference, however this will be changing now and I look forward to working on a daily basis which is what it deserves. thank you .

Hello, Marie Claire is fantastic. I look forward to seeing her messages in my browser to learn something new every day she contacts me. I find
it very satisfying and exciting to be learning a new language and looking forward to putting it to good use in the future days. Many thanks for being my colleague and teacher. Learning with Rocket French is fantastic. continued success. Ray King. U.K.

I've taken several French online learning courses both free and for fee. This one definitely is the best for my learning style. It attends to all aspects of learning a new language...reading, writing, listening, and speaking. None of the other courses come close to teaching all of these aspects nearly as well. I recommend this course without reservation. Even if you buy it at full price, it's a great deal. I Love Rocket French!

The interface is excellent, and the lesson design is excellent. I've tried Rosetta Stone and another program before, and I find Rocket French far better.

The voice recognition, however, is lame. Short words are near impossible. My accent is doubtless awful, but I can mutter a vulgar epithet and get 25%, whereas it will tell me, "Sorry, I didn't get that" on repeat efforts at "gros." This feature sorely needs work.

Wonderful teaching: but a little too fast for start...Thank You Joy

I have been using the Rocket French course for one month, and every day I am more impressed with the site. After first being intimidated, now I look forward to discovering new features every day. It has long been my goal to return to learning French, so thank you Rocket French for making it possible.
