I am finding this course both challenging and enjoyable. Since I have bought Rocket German they have added a good amount of material. I like that you can make your own goals and there are different kind of challenges to each lesson. I would highly recommend this course.
Initially I dint trust. But when started experimenting really awesome software. You can learn a lot lot n more.
Really appreciated for its designing. Learning German made me easy but little expensive to purchase online. Fit for corporate employees. For students little burden I feel.
Rocket Languages is a very interactive way to learn this language. There is a ton of verbal repetition that you may go over. While trying to cram as much in three months as possible, I think the structure also helps when trying to communicate peer to peer which is where many learning softwares fall short.
it easy to me learning german ...good assisting for helping me pronouns verbs...........................................................................................................................................................................................
I found the program very useful. This makes me so motivated to accomplish my learning of German even if it's seems difficult at the beginning(especially i'm learning it for the first time).
I can't deny that there is a remarquable progress in my learning due to the methodology of this Rocket Language.
An interesting language program but has problems playing in the company's recommended browser " Chrome ", keeps crashing used different laptops using Windows 7, Vista, and Windows 10 whilst using " Chrome ". Ended up doing a lot of work on a laptop running Windows XP using
" Firefox " avoiding " Chrome " as the system is too ancient for " Google " developers of " Chrome ". The constant crashes of " Chrome " disheartened me , after doing the same work three times run out of free time to get the 400 points that is recommended for daily target. That said if the constant crashes are eliminated then it is a good program.
The strengths: - The program is mainly focused on learning useful German from the beginning, familiarising the user with common interactions they might have early on.
- The podcasts are entertaining and stop the learning process from becoming boring.
- Easily recommendable, and from what I have heard from reviews of the product, Rocket Languages seem to care about improvements.
The weaknesses: I might be wrong on this, but I feel that a basic explanation of conjugations comes too late, and at first you are forced to entirely learn new words and not to figure out that a lot of different words are just conjugations of one word. For me, I was already familiar with German so this wasn't a problem. I would then recommend to anyone who is using this product and is completely new to German, to learn about basic sentence structure and conjugations from other sources to aid this course.
I am very happy with the course. I started learning German with a weekly course at the community college. Although I learned a good amount, I feel that with Rocket German, I am learning more since I use it practically every day. I enjoy the goal setting as well as the different types of lessons.
I've been using Rocket German for a week and have made it through the first module. Overall I am really happy with the purchase, especially since I was able to buy it on sale. I really like that I'm able to hear words, phrases, sentences and then record and compare my pronunciation to the speaker. However, I have noticed that there are times when the voice recognition marks me poorly despite my playback recording sounding exactly like the speaker. Fortunately those instances are not the norm. A lot of phrases are thrown at you at times without much explanation, perhaps this gets better the farther you move along in the course. But as an example there are two sentences with an English translation of "would like" with different German expressions and there's no context that explains why you would use one over the other. Fortunately we live in an internet age and I am able to supplement my Rocket German with other resources. So far I am really enjoying the course and definitely feel like I'm getting a lot out of it particularly with regards to pronunciation.
My favorite part of Rocket Language German is the spoken conversation in a dialogue. Hearing a native speaker hold a short conversation and then dissecting the conversation piece by piece is very useful. I am able to hear the flow of conversation and not just learn words or sentences. They may already or may want to include a bit more about the grammar process. I am just getting started but when I was learning Spanish some of the rules did help...even though they can be painful to learn..haha. The flashcards are also helpful and the practice on pronunciation is very useful as well. Lessons move at a reasonable pace and each is somewhat 'bite sized' so that you don't feel overwhelmed.
All in all, a very good course that I highly recommend.
