Rocket French Reviews

So far so good. I like the diversity of approaches - grammar, vocabulary, cards, writing what you hear, speaking... The voice recognition is an important part of the course and is great when it works. Unfortunately, a significant portion of the time it does not - on random occasions it can not detect any sound. And I am not sure what to say about the customer service, I don't know how to access that feature.

I was able to get it for free so that was awesome. I think that it's a lot better than Duolingo and it teaches you real stuff. The frustrating part is that the audio won't pick up on your non-native accent very well. I wish they had different graph options to track your point progress.

Nothing to share at this point. Need to attend more classes to form an opinion

Rocket French is so helpful. It is a fun easy way to learn French. I always want to do it! It is the best way to learn French I have ever seen. It may be expensive but it is worth it!

I tired the free trial for Rocket Languages as I was a bit skeptical. I really enjoyed the free trial. Its a great way to immerse yourself into the French language. I went ahead and bought all three levels! So far I am still in the early stages of level one but everything is going smoothly. I can't wait to use what I have learnt when I go to France to visit my boyfriend.

Well thought out program. The chunking technique is brilliant and the downloadable .mp3 files are perfect for my commute in the car. I expect the program will be very effective in my learning French!

I don't know as for other languages, but Rocket French is very useful if you want to master the French pronunciation and improve your accent. Since French is a difficult language to speak, this course stresses the speaking part, a feature you are not going to find in books if you are learning on your own.

There's a myriad of good resources for language learning, and the audio helps a lot with pronunciation. Rocket Languages has great tools for language learning, without a doubt. The cultural immersion components are a fun way to learn about culture as well, because that is vital to learning a language as well.

Still on the first module, but enjoying the program. The only thing that bothers me is that there is too much explanation and repetition even in English. I would not mind repeating dozens of times the language I am learning, but not English (unless I was taking an English course).

Rocket French is the only course I have tried that succeeds in getting you talking. Many courses can teach you the basics as you sit in a class and take your turn to say something, or do online exercises but you still get tongue tied the second you try to use it in real life. Rocket French can get you past that.

I have 17 years in London with a French wife learning french on and off, and now live in France so need to use it. Learning a language in my opinion requires three things in general order (but even better if done in parallel) 1. A strong base of grammar and vocabulary to have something to work with 2. Speaking the language out loud to get into the habit of using it correctly without reflection 3. Moving to the country and chucking yourself in the deep end to expand and refine. Most courses can do 1, only you can do 3, but in my opinion after many years of french study rocket french is the only one that does 2 with depth and substance. Speaking correctly is also important, as although I have been speaking rough french for years that gets me by in family gatherings, only in doing the saying then writing that you really start nailing the articles and gender etc to really move forward.
