Rocket German Reviews

I plan to relocate to Germany and learn to speak, write and understand the language. The rocket courses are great! I've learned how to pronounce words, and write after my first course. Thank you for being a reliable source to individuals who want to learn German

By far the best language learning app out there! It feels like I'm learning another language in school.

A bit too early to judge, I just started using it for German, but so far it is going sehr gut!
A small improvment would be to teach memorizing the nouns coupled with their articles (Der, Die, Das) since the begining, not to go through sorting these out again at a later stage.
But still, the course is considered great with a nice way for practicing a lot of speaking and writing which were very useful in my case! Thanks

I am loving Rocket Languages so far! Its very well rounded, from speaking to listening, writing and reading. Its very organized and I can sense that my learning will go very far.

Before subscribing to Rocket German, I had tried for years, off and on, to learn German. I read primers, readers, phrase books, listened to CDs and even took the first two levels of Rosette Stone, but I never really got much past the basics. I could read some, but couldn't understand it when it was spoken, and had difficulty communicating in anything except very simple phrases.

Now, with Rocket, I can feel myself finally rising above that basic plateau. I suppose one could say it was my fault for not working harder and that would be true. I didn't work hard enough. I realize now I am working much harder than previously, but the thing is, with Rocket it doesn't seem like such hard work.

The thing about Rocket, I think, that makes it so effective is that it is structured in a multi dimensional way that keeps your interest and provides the tools and exercises to accommodate various learning styles. Some times my brain hurts and I have to take a break for a day (just like working out at the gym), but I never get bored. Besides the lessons, I find that I enjoy the forum. That actually surprised me because I'm not a social networking sort of guy. However, it is a good way to ask specific questions of a language expert, share problems with other students, and meet some interesting people. I think Rocket is a great course and a great buy.

I am really enjoying learning experience by Rocket languages, and I will definitely use it for other languages as well.

Initially it felt that it is not doing much good, but regularly listening to lessons and practicing has really improved my understanding greatly.

I simply love it and I will definitely recommend to my friends as well.

Rocket Languages is simply the only way to go for travel to a foreign language speaking country! I bought both the French and the German programs. The ability to download the MP3 files onto an ipod and listen 24/7 with headphones over and over is very helpful to get the pronunciation right. I have worked much harder thus far on the French and am happy to relay my experiences from a trip to France. I found that I could speak some basic French reasonably fluently without much of an English accent, but I could not understand spoken French at the same level. The reaction from local people in Paris was exceptional - some wanted to try and switch to English so that they could practice it! One person was an Elvis impersonator and he wanted my husband and me to critique his (English) singing! And everyone helped and responded VERY positively. It makes taking a trip to a foreign country SO MUCH FUN!

I am 82 years of age.I retired from medicine (family practitioner) some two years ago. My paternal grandparents emigrated from Germany and settled on the land about the middle of last century.
I followed my father on the original land my Grandfather selected. at age 30 I felt the urge to study medicine.I did my matriculation studies by correspondence as well work the farm. I matriculated aged 40 and spent 40 tears as a medico. I mention the above for 2 reasons. firstly with our knowledge of neuroplasticity we now know age is no bar to learning new information. Secondly found my correspondence studies extremely helpful. I was able to study when most convenient as well carry out full time farming. That is why I find your course so wonderful. I can pace my studies. It is good for my brain! and I don't have to attend university and it gives me an affinity with my forebears! I highly recommend you course and gives me great pleasure to do so

Much better than both Fluenz and Rosetta Stone, and that's based solely on content and methodology. The value, too, is superior. Once you purchase Rocket Language, they offer you immediate discounts for both the premium plus and platinum editions. Great material. Great value.

I've been using Rocket French and German for awhile now and both have been working really well for me. I would recommend the Rocket Languages website to friends looking to learn new languages through a user-friendly interface.
