Rocket Spanish Reviews

Having learned French, so, Greek and Mandarin elsewhere, I think Rocket Languages as a language learning pack is fantastic (I’m learning Spanish now)!! The audio lessons are great and well planned to ensure you are building on your knowledge and use of words previously used while introducing new content. The additional writing exercises, verbal tests and quizzes mean you can learn more than just speaking and they assist in the repetition required to learn a language. Fantastic!

I was skeptical to say the least about learning a language at 25 after having to take spanish In high school and not retaining any of it other than to count to 10.
I have had rocket language for 2 days. And it is absolutely blowing my mind. I know 2 days is kind of crazy to post a review but I'm actually excited about this and just had to. I do all the parts of it the flash cards the spelling and the listening part. It seems daunting at first when you listen to a 30 minute audio at the beginning of a lesson and don't take everything in at first. But once you complete 100% activities on each lesson and really put in the effort you can do each lesson in an hour maybe an hour and a half and really walk away from that lesson feeling like you are moving forward. I work construction and a lot of my coworkers and friends on site are latino and just in two days they are surprised by what I have learned. To the point to where 2 of them have downloaded the english versions to start their own path at learning another language. I know I have a long way to go, but I'm so excited to learn this that i don't see myself wanting to slow down! Thank you rocket language and amy and Mauricio, you're making this much easier than expected.

I was astonished by the sexism and gender stereotypes, there were even lessons about the nativity. I wanted to share these lessons with my partner, who is more advanced than me, but I was too embarrassed, and some lessons were unlistenable for me, due to these problems.

Also, the lessons themselves tend to just ask you to repeat what you have heard, and only occasionally challenge the listener to take what they've learned in the lesson an actually apply it to make new sentences.

On a positive note I was pleased that the instructors would often add multiple ways of saying things.

The online Spanish Course is exactly what I was looking for and the price was easily affordable. I will turn 73 this year and one time through the materials is never enough for me but I am able to repeat each exercise several times until I can complete it flawlessly. The record-it application is very smart and has been a tremendous help in improving my pronunciation, the intonation and phrasing of short sentences. I am part way through the first module but I am looking forward to the grammar and survival lessons. I believe I could be ready for Mandarin in a couple of years. This is my first attempt at learning a second language to my native American Mid-West English.

I researched quite a bit before purchasing the entire Rocket Languages Spanish Program, and the free trial cinched the deal for me.
Like any program that relies heavily on voice recognition, it has its difficulties with certain sounds, but I'm learning the idiosyncrasies, and there are easy workarounds. I did purchase a decent headset to work with, and that is helping a lot.
I'm not entirely new to Spanish. I've been playing around with some free programs for about a year, but even at my basic level, I was outgrowing their usefulness. I was able to start Rocket Languages at Premium Plus Level 2, and it's a good starting place for me.
I'm really look forward to my daily lessons and practice, and--in just a few short days--I'm already noticing improvement.

My family and I are currently in Mexico and are working on learning Spanish. Since this program starts with useful phrases, like how to ask for help or how to order coffee, it has been much more helpful than something like the popular owl-themed language app. (Why do so many programs want to teach me to talk about elephants? Not helpful!) Rocket Spanish also uses the type of Spanish that is actually spoken, unlike the Spanish I learned in high school, and the audio is a native speaker, not a computer-generated voice. My twelve year old daughter and I both like it, and the price is reasonable. A video element would be nice, but focusing on listening and speaking is fine considering the reasonable price and useful Spanish. This seems like a good first step before moving on to teachers online or in-person lessons, and we are already getting to use what we learn in daily life here.

It's always fun to get on and learn new thing. It's actually helped me grow a lot this year in Spanish compared to last year. And i can use it when ever and where ever. And i like how it has different levels for each stage and how it quizzes what you know. But it is also very easy to cheat on. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to learn a new language besides Spanish too.

Good for picking up conversation skills. Lessons build well on each other and great focus on practicing speaking. I do wish there was a greater variety in terms of the types of exercises to complete. Also more review type exercises would be nice.

Rocket Spanish was an excellent way to kick-start my Spanish. When I decided to attend class in Spanish, I was amazed at how much I have learned from Rocket Spanish.I am now working through the advanced course and am happy to find it both challenging and accessible. While attending class is great, it is generally limited to one or two hours a week. Not enough to become proficient in a language. Having an online course that is available to me 24 hours a day, means I can work on the language every day and can fit in lessons around my schedule.

I've recently began Level 2, all lessons good on Level 1, but I'd like to express appreciation for Lesson 9.9 , Level 2 in particular.
I've struggled with the irregular preterites for some months. Your tables showing the regularity in these irregularities is most helpful and I'm seeing patterns I'd not seen before.
Thanks Rocket Spanish.
