Rocket French Reviews

I especially like the dialogue format, dismantling its parts, then putting all together. It is helping fix phrases in my mind that I used to have to piece together mechanically. I am hoping that this will lead to more fluid conversational skill. This is going beyond simple listening comprehension.

I used Pimsleur courses before. This is equally as good, but I am using exclusively in a car. The Pimsleur is better in a car as the lessons automatically come on to the next lesson and the program keeps track of where you are and Apple CarPlay controls work better than Rockets. The arocketvwoukd be better if it were seamless to a CarPlay experience. Also the review words should keep repeating in several lessons to make it easier to remember, rather than only one review time in the following lesson. Multiple repeats help sear it in my brain. For these reasons, Pimsleur works better for me.

Moderators Note: Thanks for the feedback, Ivan. You can use Rocket courses in a similar way by using the iOS app, downloading the Interactive Audio lessons to your app for offline usage, and then playing those sequentially. I hope that helps. All the best from the Rocket Languages team.

Sorry, it is too early for me to give you a review of your course.
Can I use Whatsapp instead of opening the ​computer to view your course?

I am not sure I would buy it again, and I am not sure .......

I have only just started the course which is fine so far. My criticism would be that it does not reflect the way people talk in France. No one has ever said salut to me and the standard greeting is bonjour

I would like to see something in Rocket Languages to drive a logical conversation (live person or AI) where user needs to respond to questions but without assistance and the program would validate the response (either written or audio). The expected responses would have been covered in the prior lessons. As nobody in the language software community does this yet, it would be awesome for Rocket Languages to pick it up. You could always start simple with just a standard conversation flow of questions to elicit the expected responses. You currently do that but to only a minor extent.

Rocket French is a great course and I've learned way more French than I have for 3 years in school. I'm now getting better marks in French class because I finally know more than the rest of the class. One thing that I didn't really like was that the voice recognition software doesn't work for me as it doesn't recognize what I'm saying even though I'm copying Paul and Marie-Claire. I also find this program a little pricy even though it's worth it.

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 like this program a great deal. It's very well structured and pragmatic. My only true complaint is the voice recognition software. I live in France and if most of the French can understand me then why doesn't the program recognize my voice?

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!!!

I like everything. But sometimes is hard to repeat the whole sentence. It would be easier if it was word by word.
