the live chat is awesome its helpful and you are talking to a friendly person it is the best they are nice and they help you find free lessons so you dont have to pay and they undersand everything that you say,and you can learn any language.I love this website
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
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 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.
I've only done the trial version but I decided not to buy it not because of the content; the material is quite good actually and, considering it's for life, the price is fair as well. But the activities cannot be done through mobile or app properly, the recording won't recognize what's said, the written activities never goes on to the next, the platform only works properly on desktop PC and the whole purpose is that you can learn anywhere, whenever. If I can't use my mobile and be alone when recording my pronunciation or I can't answer the cards on my free time then the "anywhere/whenever" thing is null
I started the course 6 days ago, and I have to say I do like it. Unlike modern techniques "learn-a language-the way-children-do", which is definitely not my cup of tea, here there are clear explanations provided in enjoyable conversations - just what I need. Each audio lasts approx. 30 min - not too long and not too short - I suppose that is the right time to process information without becoming tired of it.
What I like the most about the course is the way it's constructed. You just listen to the audio, repeat phrases, checking your pronunciation, and do exercises, all of which help you memorise new information. I already feel confident pronouncing basic but extremely useful phrases in French! I would DEFINITELY RECOMMEND the course to my friends!
Good review of basics and builds on it for more advanced learning. Only been at it for a week, but excited to see what I will learn more. Some of the audio does not match with what I say. I double check with Google Translate and it doesn't not work( Première, Deuxième, Troisième, etc), However based on reviews that I read, it seems to have gotten better!
I think these Rocket courses have the right methodology. I've used them to learn German and French, and I felt how my listening proficiency and vocabulary went up pretty quickly. I don't use much the extra hearing, speaking and vocabulary games that are at the end of each lesson, but listening to the main audio lessons and doing the Rocket Reviews has been enough for me.
Rocket Languages is an excellent way to learn a language . It opens you up to how you can pronounce the language through following the tutor. I enjoy the bit where you have to write because it is a good practice to know the words and how to pronounce them. I also like the flash cards because they enable you to pronounce and get to hear if you are doing it properly. My favorite is the quiz because it gives me the opportunity to show that I understand what I have been learning. I like Rocket Languages to an extend that I will not hesitate to recommend it to anyone willing to try it. I enjoy it when it also corrects spelling to show you where you went wrong right away.
The French course is really great for a beginner with limited knowledge such as myself! After the trial I bought all 3 levels and I'm not disappointed! I've tried Duolingo, Rosetta, Podcasts and a lot of other apps and they all have their pros and cons. I think Rocket French stands out in so many ways for me - (1) the material is very relevant from Day 1. (2) The grammar lessons are easy to understand and not too intensive/repetitive. (3) the'holistic' focus on learning the language (covers writing, speaking etc) (4) the engaging content which keeps the lessons interesting (5) and lifetime access. Overall, I think this course is worth every penny!
