Rocket Spanish Reviews

All in all a good learning program. Different learning tools are awesome for a person like me that gets bored easily. It fits the budget too! I am having to go to some other sources to expand my vocabulary with more technical terms as I am an inspector de construccion. But it is working out well after just 2 months.

I'm using Rocket Spanish with Duolingo, and they are terrific together. Duolingo is easy for learning the individual words and small phrases, but doesn't give much practice with Spanish conversations. Rocket Spanish has longer lessons, but is exclusively Spanish conversations. It then covers the meaning of the conversations in depth, and tests and grades your pronunciation. It also has flash cards, quizzes, and more. I love it!

I just started Spanish and this product is superior to all other Language programs. I will be using their programs for learning other languages as well! I feel more comfortable learning with Rocket Language

I am really enjoying Rocket Spanish, thus far! I love the fact that I can rate myself during each lesson. This allows me to track my progress and go back to the weaker ratings at any given time. It is a bonus to have the app on my phone so that I can practice on the go. I believe I have finally found a viable solution to learning spanish and sticking to it. Thank you Rocket Languages!

I purchased Rocket Languages to help me communicate with my family and friends that speak Spanish whether native speakers or ones that learned at some level of school. The program is easy to navigate. The games and audio lessons allow for revisits at any time for a refresher. The quizzes helps by checking to see if you understand what you just learned. The addition of the mobile app allows me to learn on the road. Rocket Languages has helped me get in touch with the Latin part of my ethnicity and helps me understand and enjoy the cultural experience more. I would recommend Rocket Language to any of my friends that would like to learn Spanish.

I like the idea of the course, but I find it too cumbersome to use on a regular basis. Firstly, I practice at home in the evenings and it is disruptive for me to be speaking aloud continuously. Half the time this feature does not work for me, likely because I have slow internet. It also absolutely cannot understand me when I say the word "enchilada" even though I am 99% sure I am pronouncing it correctly. Secondly, the rating system is really annoying and I do not understand it at all. I would like to be able to run through lessons without having to click on a rating (I also have yet to figure out what "so so" and "good" mean). Clicking a rating after every single answer makes me take my hand off of the keyboard to reach the mouse to click, when it would be much quicker and simpler to be able to just hit 'enter' to go to the next phrase or word. This is especially annoying during the typing practice, which also requires the use of a virtual keyboard to type special characters. There should be keyboard shortcuts for these, it takes an inordinate amount of time to find the characters and select the right one for very short words.

I am truly enjoying this language learning program. I like that the audio lessons involve you and make you come up with the answers on your own before supplying them to you. I feel that this is really helpful because that is the hardest part for me when speaking Spanish. I am starting to be able to understand spoken conversation better, but have a hard time coming up with the words myself. I feel very inadequate at times because I say Si a lot and not much else at this point. But, I know that progress takes time and reviewing the flash cards every day really helps and I like that you can put them into categories of hard, good and easy and then you can just review the hard ones. I like that you can measure your progress along the way, I like the scoreboard that keeps things interesting and you can see how you compare to other learners. I really like everything about this course. Living abroad in Panama is definitely helpful because I hear spoken Spanish on the daily, but I believe that with a lot of effort this course would also be great for people that don't have as much exposure. There are so many ways to get that elsewhere through music or TV shows. Netflix has so many shows that have Spanish subtitles. Anyway, I highly encourage everyone to get this course! Oh, and I also use Rosetta Stone. I like the combination of the two programs, but if I could only get one I would purchase this one over Rosetta.

Probably would've been helpful if I planned to visit Spain I was look ing for more every day con versation less about the continents / oceans some thing more that woul help full I every day conversations I live&work in a spanish speaking environment and woul of appreciated more phrases I'd say the course as is was n't for me

Some what disappointed:-:

I love how Rocket Spanish is so engaging and user friendly. I also like to be able to see the progress that I'm making. In my opinion, this program offers the most bang for your buck! I would recommend this program to anyone who wants to learn Spanish.

The thing I like most about Rocket Language is that it is audio based so you are actually speaking the language. Unlike other products that use this method it has tons of additional content and the price is not too high.
