Rocket German Reviews

I've been around the language learning game for about 10 years now. (Programs, methods, etc. I have 1000s of books in 20+ languages) At first, as with any program, I'm skeptical. Rocket Languages is fantastic, to say the least. It gets you speaking, using real world situations and phrases that bring your conversational fluency up very quickly. The mobile app is awesome, I use it at work and at the airport/ while traveling. I wish there was some sort of package deal because I see myself buying them all. I recommend this program to all my friends that want to learn a language.

Really the only complaint I have is that the 3 levels isn't offered in every language, and that I live behind my computer because this stuff is addicting :D

Rocket, if you see this is there a package deal for everything? :D

I love learning new languages! I can speak conversational German and, to a lesser extent, Croatian. Recently I was inspired to learn Spanish by a friend and so I spent hours and hours poring over reviews of the various online language learning options. There were so many options out there but nothing really felt like it was "the one" until I came across Rocket Spanish! Now, some people are happy with simply learning how to speak a language by only learning phrases but I'm one of those who really need to understand the grammar behind the phrases and sentences. So, when I came across Rocket Spanish, I was extremely excited to see that, not only will I get to learn to speak the language like a native speaker and in a way that suits my learning style (Visual) but also that the course is packed with quality lessons in grammar. What really impresses me about Rocket Spanish is the emphasis on repeating words or phrases out loud (not just in my head). This is such an important factor in accelerating one's fluency in a non-native language. After all, if you want to speak a new language, then you really do need to speak it out loud! I only wish that I had come across Rocket when I learned German and Croatian! It would most certainly have saved me countless hours and dollars wasted on ineffective methods.

I am enjoying the course a lot. I like the systematic way the material is delivered with plenty of practice examples and opportunity to repeat it as much as one likes.
The audio facility is excellent.
The only reason I am not there every day is too many other commitments.
Customer service very good but can take a bit too long.

Many thanks

I took 2 years of German in high school, it's always interested me so I kept coming back to it trying to learn more. I tried various free workshops online but they don't really give you an in depth experience. I'm pleasantly surprised with my rocket german experience. I do find some of the beginner levels easy because of my past education with some of the language in high school, but I do enjoy that it's not just audio, but that it's interactive as well. That definitely helps. I am more of a visual learner so I would recommend something more visually stimulating. I often write things down when listening to the audio so I can see the words as well as listen to them. Just listening to them doesn't really solidify it for me. I need to write it down and read it over. But the interactive lessons help with that.

I'm still on the first Level of German so far, but I am really enjoying the Rocket Languages methodology. I Hope to see some progress on my German during the next months. The price is very expensive but I think will worth it.

Rocket German managed to constantly keep me engaged where other programs failed. Usually I would lose interest about halfway (maybe even quarter way) through a program, but having the option of taking the audio lessons with me wherever I go gives me lots more options.

I can't recommend this program enough!

I like that we have audio and visual learning tasks. Doing both really helps with the learning process. The audio instructors are very engaging and enjoyable. I'd definitely recommend Rocket Language to anybody that is wanting to travel abroad and feel comfortable with the language.

Excellent course. I download the interactive audio lessons and practise in the car as I am driving. The only downside with this is that I do actually see the text. Doing the work on the website is very helpful. It is really helping me improve my German.

I had never found to learn a language so easily,it was as like we learn to speak during our childhood.
So,much play-way and interesting such that we forgot about the time and about our surroundings and day by day we found that we had learn the language.Really i am sure whom so ever learn from this is going to love it !!!!!!!!!!

I read several language course reviews before choosing the Rocket program to learn to speak German. I made the right choice! I have used the Paul Noble cd's in the past and loved them as an intro to German, but they were not enough. I also tried the Pimsleur method for a couple of lessons, but I really did not like it. Too repetitive and boring. But this Rocket program is a great blend of the conversational explanations I liked about the Paul Noble cds, the ability to listen in my car to the audio conversations, and that added element of using my laptop to learn the grammar and writing that I really need to round out my skills. I love to be able to hear the sounds, practice speaking, and then see the correct spelling of the words. Seeing the spelling really helps me correct my pronunciation and start seeing patterns in the language. I consider myself a visual learner, so seeing the written word is within my comfort zone of learning style. However, I really need to be able to train my ear and practice all the new sounds that come with a new language. This program offers a great mix of teaching and evaluation methods.
