you can skip, review, re-do, and take quizzes. I do not think it misses anything unlike other online course. thank you Rocket languages.
Rocket language is amazing. I've purchased the Chinese, Arabic, and Russian. You will not find a better language learning resource out there period. The affordable price (especially on sale days) is only the cherry on top. Rocket languages is user friendly, and there's literally SO MUCH material and lessons conveniently in the app. All it takes is clicking on the app, no repeated logging in necessary and you are ready to go. The interactive lessons are around 15 to 20 minutes long, perfect for when I'm commuting to school. If you find that there is too much English instruction in the audio lesson, there is the option to listen to only the foreign conversation , and if you can comprehend those conversations, trust me you are learning. My only complaint is there is no repeat loop option for the interactive lessons so as soon as a lesson is over I have to go back into the app and press play again. Customer service is definitely about helping you and I had a good experience with them. I highly recommend Rocket Language and encourage anyone to at the least check it out.
I really think the system is great. Personally I have tried lots of courses before and for me it's the combination that really convinces me to stick to the course. In the moment I do the Russian course and even though it bothered me to write everything I learnt I realize how beneficial it is. Also the flashcards are nice, even though I prefer Anki. Anyway, it's a great deal for the price and I will stick to Russian and also go for another language. The weekly e-mails I get could be improved, maybe someone listens and makes them responsive. It's really hard to read them on a mobile phone.
I've seen the light. This is definitely how Languages should have been taught.

We completely agree, Jaakko, and are glad to hear that you're getting a lot out of the comprehensive nature of our Rocket Russian course. Keep up the great work!
When you speak letters into the microphone, instead of typing them out in Russian/English, they type out actual numbers, so i can legit never get them.

Hi Chelsea, we're sorry to hear about the issue that you are experiencing. We have contacted you via email to get some more information from you. All the best!
I decided to buy Rocket Language Russian because I have always been fascinated by this language. Every day , I walk my dog for 1h and listen to an Audio Lesson. I practice Russian of course BUT also English since the comments are in English ( I'm French ).
To be honest, I was skeptical but after only one month I honestly can say I made real progress, it's not boring at all, it's easy and each day I feel like having Russian friends talking to me. I'm training my memory and after a few months, I will add this skill to my resume!
The overriding problem with Rocket Languages is the faulty audio system. I own a MacBook Air 2013 computer for which the audio is excellent for all programs except this one.

Your program coordinates well with Rosetta Stone and Pimsleur. Each of the three offers something special.
Rosetta Stone covers grammar in an incremental, methodical manner - offering extremely valuable practice
exercises on a whole host of subject matter and syntactical patterns. Rocket Language is a good follow-on to
Rosetta Stone and Pimsluer and offers effective reinforcement of both types of learning. For some languages,
Rocket Language sentences are overly complex if introduced too soon. They are challenging to master.
I am learning russian. A very hard language. The courses are good, but i have just begun. I like that when I mispronounce a word, it shows me the spelling of the sounds i am making. That way, i can see how my pronunciation would be spelled,. especially since my pronunciation is terrible. I am learning slowly. I like the program, I do wish it did each of the of the alphabet sounds with me before going into words so that i could more easily memorize the alphabet. and that there were flashcards of just the alphabet.

Thank you, Sheree; awesome to hear you're enjoying Rocket Russian! It's really useful to know that expanding the voice recognition to include the individual letters of the alphabet would help you out with your language learning. Keep up the great work!
I've taken both Busuu and Rocket Russian. I feel that I'm making more progress with the Rocket program. I'm being pushed to read it, listen to it, speak it and write it. Busuu didn't push me as hard, however it did let me interact with native speakers in Russia and the other former Soviet states, who corrected my lessons. I could have gone as far as I wanted once in contact with those speakers. However, without the grammatical structure in place, I found it very hard to try speaking or writing it. But I'd have to say that the immediate feedback on my pronunciation in Rocket is something immensely valuable and I love being pushed to write it as well. With so many ways to review and refine, it really cements the language into my 67 year old brain, which already has mastered Spanish, achieved a working knowledge of French and German, and now, the piece de resistance, Russian. Luvin' it.
I just recently started learning Russian wit Rocket Russian, and i have to say in only this short time I've been leaning, I've learned a lo. i would defiantly recommend it to anyone leaning a language .
