Rocket Languages review criteria
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.
I moved to France without speaking a word of French and bought this program after reading some good reviews of it online. I've bought some other online resources but Rocket French is the only one I've ended up coming back to repeatedly for self-study. The dialogues are well done: I like the brief explanations of the vocab and the repetition is helpful without being tedious. I've actually been able to use the structures in real conversation here in France. The program has been improved a lot even since I bought it, and now you can practice what you learn in every possible format--- writing, reading, speaking, listening --- and the ability to download the audio is great if you want to listen to it in your car. Sometimes I listen to a dialogue several times before looking at the transcript and this helps me figure out how well my listening comprehension is coming along. I'm really happy with this program and recommend it to anyone looking for an entertaining way to learn French.
To anyone reading reviews, trying to decide if you should purchase Rocket Languages, the answer is yes! It's a decision i made that I am very happy with. I am 15 years old and a sophomore in high school. I take French in class but the instruction was really not doing it for me. Learning French is a goal i've had since a very young age and even more so now that I am applying to study in France my Junior year. This service is a no gimmick one. You pay, and you get lifetime access to the materials as well as all the updates. There's also a mobile app which was recently updated to be very efficient. I haven't tried any other online language learning programs, but i do have a lot of experience with technology and language instruction and i can say you will not be disappointed. *when I purchased the first tier of instruction i was prompted to get the other two for a great deal!*
I've been trying to learn French off and on for many years, but have always struggled with conversation. Having gone through the first few lessons in the trial version, I feel like my spoken French has improved more than it did in any of the classes I took. I would feel comfortable having a simple conversation with someone in real life after this short time. Seeing that kind of progress is motivating! The testing modules following each of the lessons do a really good job of helping you internalize the language that was taught in the lesson. The voice recognition software can sometimes be a bit slow or finicky, which may be partially due to my computer. I've had the best luck using the recently updated iPhone app. I would definitely recommend the French product. It is much less expensive than I would pay for classes that cover the same amount of material, and I believe I will actually be more proficient with Rocket French.
One note: I haven't had any contact with the company, so I cannot comment on the customer service, but don't want to give them a bad rating. One the I noticed was that the issues that I experienced initially with the iPhone app were resolved the next time I logged in. The company seems to be working hard to give customers a good product.
Rocket French has been my desired language software.. I enjoy the learning style. The microphone, and writing capacity of this program. It is fun to practice and learn at your own pace. I would recommend this program. Love the flashcards and different opportunities for learning.
As an English teacher for a French Bilingual program, I love that Rocket French helps me learn the language that my students and their parents speak. I also really love that I can download lessons to my phone to listen to and to practice in the car during my daily commute.
I learned French in school in Canada, but after so many years having not practiced the language, my memory was latent and rusty. I am primarily motivated to brush up on my French for professional purposes and - for this purpose - having been investigating on-line French learning options. I settled on Rocket French due to so many reasons: interactive learning; focus on pronunciation; repeated exercises; explanation in English of French grammar and rules; etc. I could go on...
Thank you Rocket French staff for helping me - at my own pace - to re-learning French and giving me the confidence to speak with French-speaking professionals!
I love using Rocket Languages to help me in my french class. It is so helpful and can be used in class and at home. I recommend it to everyone. It easily goes over each lesson in different methods so you can choose how you learn. Another amazing part is that you can listen to and repeat the French as you hear it so you can learn pronunciation as well.
Rocket Languages is the best language program that I have ever used. It isn't like other programs that drill your brain with constant vocabulary words and phrases that you would never use in real life. It actually gives you useful information, practical information that will allow you to survive and also eventually become fluent in whatever language you're studying.
this is really cool and it works well! i wish i had started way earlier.If you don't have it i seriously recommend it to everyone who is reading this. have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
