Rocket German Reviews

I would recommend using this website for any tricky words in German that you find trouble saying.

Good course and learning experience. I keep on going with my learning of the Deutsch Sprachen sehr gut :)

I find Rocket German to be easy to follow and instructive in regards to grammar and the finer points of the German language. I like the speech recognition feature and the flow of the lessons. The flash card review at the end of the lesson is very helpful. It is the best of all the other online programs I have tried, and that includes Babbel, Duolingo, Rosetta Stone and a few others.

I think the course is very well structured and easy to follow. Speakers Nik and Paul are very nice. Recommended !

German Level 1 was great - detailed and thorough, moving at a good pace. I have just started Level 2, and it is a different thing entirely, and unfortunately not at all good. It seems to have been botched together from a previous, separate attempt at a course (the numbered Audio lessons are completely different in the lesson plan and in the audio track), and it doesn't follow on from Level 1 in any meaningful way (there’s repetition of stuff we've already covered).

Most disappointing is a dramatic drop in quality of the Language lessons. The grammar explanations are much shorter, and leave gaps and questions unanswered. The lessons on Dative and Genitive are terrible - cursory explanations and patchy examples. Example sentences either display grammatical features which go wholly unexplained in the text; or fail to display the relevant grammar at all. Poorly thought out, and a frustrating contrast to the excellent Level 1.

The amazing and unique course to learn fast. It is well taught and I strongly recommend for people who want to learn the German language properly.

rocket language is very good when it comes to the teaching but i think things like this should be free because not everyone has the money to pay for it and the people that need it most is poorer people that don't have much money but everyone needs an education it doesn't matter about their status in life

I have used a number of other language courses ( paid and free) and find Rocket languages the best, for a number of reasons:
There is a comprehensive set of different reinforcement tools to suit a person's learning style. I prefer the flip cards but the others are also beneficial.
I appreciate that the audio lessons are separate from the culture/grammar lessons, so that one can easily dip in and out of the grammar as one wishes.
The ease of going back to earlier lessons to reinforce previous work if it is getting rusty!
The length of each lesson and the reinforcements are a sensible length - not too short but not too long to be daunting.
Oh - and the once off cost is much better than paying a regular fee!

Been doing the Rocket German for about 3 months. So far, I've enjoyed it for the most part and am looking forward to getting into the second Level. My one complaint/suggestion is that I find the written lessons to be poorly set up. The focus looks like it is supposed to be on grammar in many lessons, yet they are taught with 20+ new vocabulary words in many of them. So instead of focusing on the new grammar rules, you get lost trying to figure out what all of the new vocabulary is. Would suggest using only words already known when first introducing a grammar lesson so that the focus is kept on the grammar and not diverted to the new words. I've come out of several of the written lessons with no more knowledge of the grammar rules then when I went in because 90% of the examples were with new vocabulary. Audio lessons are great though, and overall I still think there are many positives. Looking forward to the updated level one German whenever it is due out.

I've tried using other apps and things for learning a language and so far this is the best i have found, very interactive and easy to follow. Worth a try!
