It is a bad version of other courses. The voice recognition is poor based on experience from other apps. I have paid into the course you may wish not to.

Extremely thorough training that covers speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Exceptionally well-organized and presented. Excellent blend of easy and challenging components in each lesson. Keep up the fantastic work. Thank you!
Response from Rocket Languages
Thank you for being part of our Rocket French community. We're thrilled that you're enjoying the comprehensiveness of the course!
I like that I can listen AND see the words but I really, really wish the speaker's buttons worked better so that I could hear the phrase repeatedly, once for each click.

We're sorry to hear about the issues you're having with the speaker buttons, Karen. If you haven't already, please get in touch, and we will set you up on a call with our friendly IT team to see what we can do to help!
Additional grammar explanations helpful. The pronunciation of "Je" or "J' "changes significantly depending on the words and their grammatical spelling following "Je". Rote memorization is not a good approach when grammar determines pronunciation.
Response from Rocket Languages
Awesome to hear that you're enjoying our comprehensive Language and Culture lessons! We understand that rote memorization isn't everyone's cup of tea, which is why we offer three reinforcement activities focused on pronunciation at the end of each lesson.
This course is especially valuable to me as it places great emphasis on pronunciation, which is a challenge in the French language. The practice units on spelling, pronunciation etc. at the end of the module provide excellent reinforcement of material recently learned. Thank you.

It's awesome to hear how much the course's comprehensiveness and focus on pronunciation are helping you progress in your French language learning. You're a valued member of our Rocket community, John! Keep up the great work!
I can read French and chose Rocket French because I needed to learn how to pronounce the language correctly and acquire conversational skills for an upcoming visit to France. The course meets these needs and is well structured; words and grammar from early lessons come back in later ones to reinforce what I've learned (or forgotten). The phone app is especially valuable because it uses speech recognition to grade my pronunciation and catch my errors; I wish the browser version did this as well.
The user interface makes it easy for me to report problems and the staff is very responsive in either referring them to the development team or clarifying things I misunderstood.

Thanks, Bill! It's always exciting to hear how our users plan to use their language skills. We're sorry that you are unable to get your pronunciation graded on the web version; this should be available as long as you are using a browser we support. Reach out to our customer support team, and we'd be happy to help you out with this!

Hey Samuel, thanks so much for joining us to learn French! It's awesome to have you here!
There are lots of opportunities to review and practice. It would be improved by cutting all the silly English comments. It takes up time and is not necessary to learn -irritating.
Response from Rocket Languages
Thanks for the feedback, Stephanie. At Rocket, we understand that learning a new language can be daunting. That's why we focus on creating a stress-free experience that you can enjoy from the comfort of your home. We acknowledge that the English jokes and quips, in service of this, in the Audio lessons may not be everyone's cup of tea, but we hope you are still enjoying the course!
The courses are well structured, very detailed and framed to ensure great learning. Well done!

Thanks, Victor! Keep up the awesome work!
Wow! I have used so many French resources and this is one of the best. Love love love it. I am even getting over my shyness of speaking with the interactive listening and speaking tools. That little bit of feedback is so much fun for me. Rocket French is light on the grammar but maybe it's more important to get people taking first before overwhelming them with grammar rules.. After all I can look that stuff up in a book on my own. Thanks! Ada
Response from Rocket Languages
We absolutely love hearing about how our speaking tools are helping users overcome the initial shyness of speaking a second language. Don't forget to give yourself a pat on the back, and keep up the great work! Our audio lessons are not specifically focused on grammar, but don't worry! You'll find all the tricky grammar points covered in our Language and Culture lessons.
