Rocket French Reviews

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!

Great and very good software platform to learn French from scratch.

I would appreciate a lot if you could record videos to explain grammar and languages rules by your teachers. It would also be fantastic to have videos instead of just audio files about conversations.

At last, I would appreciate a clearer path to know exactly what to do each day ("way of fools"...).

With that you would have 5 stars without hesitate. The best software platform I've seen to learn a language.

Keep on going guys!!!

Overall, I have really enjoyed Rocket French so far! I like the combination of conversation pieces, vocabulary, and grammar lessons, instead of just all vocabulary and grammar, like when I learned in school. I absolutely love the reinforcements, as this really helps me in knowing what is actually sinking in and what I need to review again in more detail. What would be even better is a reinforcements section at the end of each module, for both the conversation lessons and for the language and culture lessons.

The auditory portion is great for me because this is what I struggle with the most, understanding spoken French and pronunciation. Unfortunately, the voice recognition can be hit and miss, especially for the one syllable words and sounds. I usually just skip over if after a few times it does not recognize what I am trying to say, knowing that I was pronouncing it pretty closely to the example.

If you take the time to really learn from this program, practice and repeat lessons, and not just rush through to finish, I highly recommend this program. Use all the components provided - there are so many ways that this program allows you to learn and practice. My vocab is a particular favorite extra I use.

I've just started the first few lessons and I really like the conversational approach to learning and the additional form of testing that follows. Unlike other learning platforms that I've tried that encourage you to speak, Rocket's approach of using voice recognition makes it into a kind of game where you feel that speaking correctly matters. I also love how you can stand in for one of the speakers in a pseudo-realtime conversation. It feels that one step closer to learning with another person. On the negative side, I find the male teacher to be a bit too 'smily', like he is talking to children. This isn't especially off-putting when we get to the actual conversations and explanations but it doesn't really help with learning. I guess they wanted the male and female teachers to have some kind of rapport with the students but it feels forced.

I find the course very well constructed. However, the silly small talk in the interactive lessons are annoying. I fast forward past the music and small talk about things that have nothing to do with the lesson to get to the real content and it is irritating to the focussed student.

I liked as much as I could cover in the free preview. It takes a lot of dedication to learn a language but rocket has good tools to help those who are interested. Having a monthly payment is a good option to have. If I want to continue to learn French, I would certainly think of coming back here as I liked the structure of the course very much.

I have just started using Rocket French after completing the entire Rosetta Stone software. I can tell Rocket French is already more effective and the structure improves the ability to retain key parts of the language.

it's an awesome opportunity to learn french thru rocket language. it is easy to understand. very well spoken words and very clear. i hope i can do the full version for me to totally speak my french. this website/ app is highly recommended to all the people out there who wants to really speak in french. this is a great tool to learn easily and have fun.

I had tried the FREE trial at first and it seems i learned few basics french words and i enjoy the process of learning. I easily get bored with some other language learning apps i purchased previously. Finally, i decided to buy this very enjoyable yet very systematic language application. The survival kit, language and cultural lessons helps me a lot for a deeper understanding of the language. The interactive audio lessons just motivated me to be awake... NOW, its my turn to focus my study. BONNE CHANCE à tous!

Did some research online and tried a few "trial" lessons. It was clear early on in my search that Rocket Language (French) was really the only way to go. I am actually learning to speak and understand. I have looked at more expensive offerings but I have walked away not retaining, confused, and upset thinking it was me. This course has proven that it's really in the way it taught. I can't thank you enough! I highly recommend this course.
