Rocket Spanish Reviews

I highly recommend Rocket Spanish as an introductory Spanish course. I'm able to access all prior lessons and review lessons as needed. I like the format -- listening to a practical conversation, breaking down the conversation, repeating back the conversation, (even rating my pronunciation!), spelling out the phrases, and the quiz! This approach truly is the best way for me to learn. Like other reviewers, I have tried other Spanish language online courses, and none have come close to what I have learned so far. I am super satisfied, and I feel this course is well worth the money.

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 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 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 have been using Rocket Spanish for 4 months now and amazed at how much I am learning. I listen to the 20-30 minute lessons while on a walk and spend another 15-20 minutes working towards my daily points goal.

Rocket Spanish is fun and effective. And I get to learn at my own pace.

I am 62 and everyone told me I was too old to learn a new language. When I started level 1 I was sure they were right. I thought this is never going to stick. But when you hear it, say it, write it and translate it I would go to bed and the words and phrases would start coming to me.

I just returned from Panama where it seems only the young kids can speak any English. Having completed level 1 I was amazed, and my wife was quit impressed, how well I could communicate with non English speakers.

I am going to start level 2 soon. It is not easy for me but it works!

Like the structure of the course, particularly appreciate the interactive audio and pronunciation checks. Ability to burn courses to MP3 invaluable for learning on the run. Have recommended to others.

Great Spanish lessons to keep ...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

I love the Spanish Program because I already speak and understand the Language-so it is a lot of fun and good practice for me!
I would like to hear a bit more of the Castillian dialect in the program so I can become more proficient and visit Spain.
As for the Arabic (I signed up for both) I believe that this language is quite a challenge only because I have not had the time to really apply myself and quite frankly will have to begin all over again I am so far behind.
I hope to have the time to begin again and Amira always sends her emails and I appreciate them very much-
In all honesty, one would really have to have a private tutor to truly become fluent and this would take a lot of time re: Arabic
I love languages and I appreciate your courses so much-They are the creme de la creme of them all!!
Muchas Gracias!

Took the Spanish course in preparation for a trip to Spain. I felt that the dialogues were much more useful than any other product I could find, the format and practice areas were good. I also enjoyed the conversations and felt the speakers were clear and very understandable. Am planning on purchasing Italian next.
