Great beginning explanation and vocalizing of some of the basics. I really like the feed back aspect of correcting pronunciations. And how some phrases are used in different settings. Truly a wonderful beginning . Joyeuse saint Valentin.
The audio lessons are presented very well. They are by far the best part of the program. The written tests and multiple choice tests work fine. The interactive voice tests are sometimes glitchy. As others have said, the website and iOS app can sometimes have issues. The iOS app is not as quite as fully functional as the website, but still pretty good. Overall, I'm happy with the program. I suspect it will continue to get better with time. I'm not disappointed with my purchase.
rocket Chinese...alas,I wish I have been studying hard. but...I actually speak Chinese. rocket French is biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiien.
Overall, Rocket French is a solid product for beginners like me who are starting to learn French. The interactive audio lessons are well constructed, and with the various assessment tools the overall learning experience is more than what you would typically expect from an online offering. The quality of the lessons are somewhat similar to the ones from a private tutor. Even though the price for all 3 levels combined is on the higher end, I've found it to be well worth the money. I would recommend this to a French learner!
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.
I tried learning French using a CD set and books, but found the process slow and inflexible. With RF, I am able to vary the pace of learning and really focus on pronunciation. I also like the different forms of learning offered and the mix between conversational French and grammar. Well done on a great product!
Please can you let me know how I can use the keyboard in the "Write It" section? I am able to type some of the accents, but others are less obvious? Perhaps there are keystroke sequences that I need to learn?
Kind Regards

Response from Rocket Languages
At the bottom left of the keyboard there is a check box that, when checked, shows the different accents.
I've been using Rocket languages for about a year now, and am very satisfied.
The points system is a great motivator. (Let's be honest, we're all a bit competitive).
The "hear it, say it" functions really let's you test yourself and I think recently added "write it" completes it as a language course.
There has been some spelling mistakes throughout the course, but customer service listens and fixes anything brought to their attention.
I recently put the course (or my abilities) to the ultimate test, by traveling to a couple french speaking regions, and I surprised myself at how well it went.
Kudos to the developers of rocketfrench.
Rocket has been awesome for helping me to reconnect with my high school french, which I studied over 20 years ago. Great how it covers listening, speaking and reading/writing. I love how interactive it is, makes it actually really fun!! Easy to set personal challenges with the score keeping and badges etc.
I have tried a number of programs, books, cd's etc...I always come back to Rocket Languages. Very satisfying to know you can learn another language so quick and efficiently. I love these programs and always recommend Rocket Languages when I hear of someone wanting to learn an new language.
I think it is better that the conversation is carried out by native speakers instead of a native and a non-native. I showed the audio part to my French friends, they think the non-native speaker carry a weird accent and that is not good for helping with my pronunciation as a beginner.
