I like the different types of exercises - I've tried other methods but for software based course this seems better than other I've tried. I have a big problem with my pronunciation so being able to hear myself and being scored is great.
The voice recognition is terrible and only works intermittently before giving me the "Looks like speech recognition is currently busy. Please try again" message. Customer "service" tells me to do what I'm already doing (use Chrome browser, fast internet etc.). They acknowledge that their voice recognition doesn't always work and advise me to "skip" those parts. Skipping isn't a solution to the problem! I used Rocket before for German and it was very good. Now I just want to skip this program completely and get a refund.

Hi Troy, thank you for taking the time to provide us with your valuable feedback. Your comments have been passed on to both the customer support and IT teams. We are sorry to hear that you have been facing issues with our voice recognition system. While we strive to provide you with state-of-the-art technology, we do understand that it can make errors at times. If the voice recognition detects phrases poorly, we suggest skipping over them because this will ensure that the language learning process is not disrupted. We appreciate your continued effort in learning the French language and wish you all the best!
I thought it was quite similar to mango languages that i could obtain free from my local library but it turns out to be much better. I really like the notes area that allows you to save your own personal notes. You can easily copy and paste. The keyboard is a bit of a hassle. The audio files can be downloaded to my ipod so i can listen to them in the car. it really is a much better product. The Hear it and Say it are the key. You can reset it and do it as many times as you wish. That's when you really know if you are learning something new. It challenges you at a faster pace than mango languages. mango also has the voice recording but the extras which are: the notes that you can save, the downloadable audiofile so you can listen on your ipod or in your car on your auxiliary device, the Hear it, Say it, Know it: All of these are what put's it ahead. and i can get access to it anywhere internet is available rather than just on my home computer without taking much space. it's like the icloud where you can access stuff anywhere but it doesnt use up computer memory.
Rocket Languages is a huge help in my life of learning other languages. now I know four languages. so helpful. you need to learn at least one language. the guides are very helpful.###love French !! .......................................................................................................

I'm very happy with it thus far. Rocket French gives you a short podcast-type recording and follows it up with quizzes on what you just learned. The quiz types are varied too including pronunciation exercises, writing, and flashcards, which keeps it engaging and helps retention. I was able to get a decent discount from an affiliate also (still more expensive than other) but definitely well worth the price.
I also put 5 starts for customer service, but haven't had to interact with them at all at this point, though I wouldn't be concerned given how well organized everything seems to be.
From the moment i decided to look into learning a new language for my future, i wanted a way to learn a language without the pressure of my current and changing lifestyle. When i came across the Rocket French lesson, looked into it to find that i can learn at my own pace and even take it with me to learn on the go if i find time. This will be a great help to me and anyone else that travels often. I also know that if i am too busy then i can come back to the site at any time even years from now and still pick up from where i left off. This is why i chose Rocket French and have stuck with it since and i think you could benefit from it too. It is the best that i have found from searching the internet.
This is one of the tools that every French learner should have, it has kept me interested to learn it, and I have noticed how well I can keep a conversation and read articles in this language, thanks to that I have more friends who are French speakers. Thanks Rocket Languages and keep improving your tools, I love them!
