Rocket German Reviews

Rocket German picks up where the (excellent) Michel Thomas German course finishes. Once you have learned the basics of German sentence structure using Michel Thomas, Rocket German gives you a wealth of vocabulary to use in your conversations. It's friendly to listen to, and the vocab "sticks" unless the typical "Learn German in your car" style CDs which just throw vocab at you, and hope that you'll remember a small percentage of it.

The audio lessons are interesting and keep your attention unlike other audio programs. The exercises and transcripts are very helpful for reinforcing the German I am learning from the audio clips. I like how you can mark vocabulary words that you still need work on and how you can review them later from the website. Other audio programs I have tried don't even provide a transcript of what is being said, so it is hard to learn to read and write in the language if you've never seen the words! The games are also a fun break from studying. Better yet, Rocket German is affordable unlike some other options I have considered.

The rocket languages has very good language courses. I have learned a lot both in the German and France languages and I always come back to the side to learn more. Thank you for an excellent site. Baldur

Awesome web site :D now it's easier for me to learn German from my laptop :3 i just loved it so much ^__^ ...[Uh, I need 95 more characters... so here we go -__-] !!! Why the hell should I write 200 characters .. Whatever !! xoxo

Rocket Languages made me to reconnect with my Mutter (die long time ago, when I was a baby). She went from Germany to Chile, with her parents, and had five German-Chilean kids ( I am the youngest). I was losing the language and now is coming back and I feel that I can talk to her.
I am teaching a little bit to one of my grandsons, so he also has a connection with the past. I am grateful and happy at my old age.

Rocket German is a great German learning course. The lessons cover the most common life situations, although sometimes more examples of different variations of the same situation would be nice. I like that there are two indicators how well you know a certain lesson ("hear it", "learn it"), which is useful for tracking to your progress.

I like how everything is organized on the site. I like the features i.e language and culture lessons, My Forum, the tests, the games, survival kit, and My Vocab. For me Rocket German is the way to go for language learners. I do not know how else to learn a language!

Not the easiest to navigate, but sure beats the heck out of RosettaStone! Male voices seem to be easier to understand for me and would be nice to have the option of switching. Overall, a hearty thumbs up.

So far, I've been enjoying the Rocket German course, I like it for interactivity which it provides and that one feels like speaking with a real person/s. I particularly appreciate an availability to pace up my learning, i.e. that I can get back in week or later and continue exactly where I stopped the last time. Also the progress interface and badges are helpful and motivating. I would just advice to keep working on written material (perhaps to provide some additional text related to given topic) and on recording interface which gets messy from time to time. As a whole I do not regret the money I spent for this course and I can recommend it :)

What an experience learning with Rocket languages has been. I feel it has greatly enhanced my conversation skills and I am now more confident with my trip to Germany I would certainly recommend this to my friends.
