Rocket French is structured perfectly for anyone who wants to learn it and doesn't have time to attend classes. It also allows the student to study the language at their own pace, repeat the lessons as many times as one wishes to and review knowledge of the language later on. Also having written text in front of my eyes helps me to understand audio lessons and pronunciations better. The course is designed the way which suits me best and therefore I love it. I tried learning French language by attending classes but I was completely disappointed and finding Rocket French was like finding GOLD/VIOLA THAT'S IT!!! Thank you Rocket French!

This is how I would love to have been taught French while at school! Although I have continued to study French on and off over the years using books and different online courses, and can just about survive when travelling in France, my main difficulty has been in understanding what is being said to me (I can read French a bit) and suffering from 'brain freeze' whenever asked a question! Rocket French has been a dream come true for me - I decided to start from the very beginning rather than go in at a higher level and I've not only understood some rules for the first time, but it's really helped reinforce what I knew but had forgotten over time! The course is entertaining and engaging, never boring, and is the only online course I've discovered where the level of engagement is so high. You also get the feeling that you really are learning French the way modern day French people speak. There are other online courses which are cheaper, but for the progress I've already made in just a few weeks, Rocket is extremely good value for money. I would really recommend this course to anyone, regardless of the level they are presently at. I wished I'd discovered Rocket earlier!

The French course is really great for a beginner with limited knowledge such as myself! After the trial I bought all 3 levels and I'm not disappointed! I've tried Duolingo, Rosetta, Podcasts and a lot of other apps and they all have their pros and cons. I think Rocket French stands out in so many ways for me - (1) the material is very relevant from Day 1. (2) The grammar lessons are easy to understand and not too intensive/repetitive. (3) the'holistic' focus on learning the language (covers writing, speaking etc) (4) the engaging content which keeps the lessons interesting (5) and lifetime access. Overall, I think this course is worth every penny!

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Ivan - It's likely that your microphone hasn't been set up correctly, as we have had no other reported issues of the voice recognition not working. I would recommend checking out our FAQs and/or contacting customer support with details of your system.

I am having trouble getting the accent right. This is impeding my progress. I need to re-watch, read and listen many times and still my accent is terrible. This is a lot more work than I expected, but I will plug onward.

Awesome?
Well, we do not like Paul's condescending and patronizing manner (it's not funny). We are both teachers, and we were hoping for more professionalism.
My husband and I are going through the lessons together, and we feel the lesson content is practical and appropriate. We feel we are learning a lot to use in everyday situations.
Bon Chance!

To date I have purchased two modules for Rocket French and Rocket Italian. I found RF while it was in it's infancy because at the time of purchase only Premium Level One was available. A few months later I received an email about Rocket French Level Two and I jumped to add it. Then a short time later I received the announcement about Rocket Italian. To date I have only used the RF. I use it in conjunction with two other pieces of software. One of them is Duolingo. However, what I like about RF is that it is more thorough. I like the two speakers/hosts of the program as well. Paul with his English charm and Marie Claire with her lovely, French personality. The two make each lesson fun and entertaining. So far I have made good progress with RF but I have one gripe. The voice recognition needs more work. I use a headset that works well with other voice recognition programs but RF doesn't always recognize the sentence as I repeat it. And this is frustrating when you play or hear Paul or Marie-Claire pronounce the sentence as you just recorded. This is the one major issue I have. Well this and the fact that I get nagging messages if I try to use a browser other than Google Chrome or Chromium. Overall, I do like the program and have made more progress with my French when I come here than anywhere else. Thanks for a quality product.

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!

Im extremely satisfied with Rocket Language French Course. I truly believe that you are the best French online Course. Having bought many Courses years ago, I regret to try to use them so late, due to many problems of time. I suposse that one proof of my honest judgment is that I am 77 years old, so I don´t like to state what I don´t feel as true. Your bilingual teaching is one of the most important things that you could have chosen. Very nice! Also, the high technical resources you have here, plus the easy way to connect with your website without the horrible experiences in other websites...!, the beautiful presentation of your Courses, attracting and pleasant customers to follow the lessons, and the thourouglhly care you have put in every lesson , helping students to really improve their french knowledge , these are powerful reasons for me to have no doubts at the time of a language website option. I indeed pray to have a long life time to enjoy and take advantage of your French Course, and maybe other ones if I should have time to deal with them. . So, my best and sincere congratulations to everyone in the team, specially to you, Marie -Claire Riviere. Thanks, thanks a lot!
