Rocket Spanish Reviews

The system is engaging and stimulating. The voices of the Instructors are pleasant to listen to. The language is presented in a logical way to help you out in specific situations. Ultimately, like any thing else, with practice, it all comes together.else it all ties in. Its becoming more and more practical and useful to learn the real Native Language of California, Spanish. Its a beautiful language and it is rewarding when you can engage and speak Spanish with Native speakers. Rocket Spanish gets you on the track quickly.

Here is what I find different about Rocket Languages, the focus is on learning to SPEAK Spanish. The other programs I’ve used focused on written language. I love that the narrators speak slowly enough so I can understand the words and so I can learn to pronounce the words correctly. The lessons make sense and have real world applications. For me, this is far and away the best Spanish program I have used. I already feel more confident speaking Spanish and I find the correct words come to mind faster. I try to do one lesson a day. The lessons take about an hour. You dont have to do that much, but I really want to learn to speak the language so I am committed to spending the time necessary.
I did call customer service once because I could not get the playback to work. The person who helped me could not have been more attentive to my needs. She told me exactly what to do to fix the problem.
All in all, this is the only Spanish program I would recommend. I do think Duolingo is good for beginners who want to find out if they are committed to learning a language, however once you know you want to learn, then switch over to Rocket Languages. I hope you will be as happy as I am about the program.

I love the website with so many options to learn from....survival kit, games, etc. The Beginners Book is incredable! If you can't learn from this program, it's your own fault. I didn't rate customer service because I haven't needed it.

Good if you're serious about learning. Provides very well explained lessons. Won't just throw words at you, but will explain in great detail when and how those words and phrases should be used. Gives a little insight into Latin American culture. Let's you practice reading, listening, and speaking. Explains grammar in a way that is not boring, but is thorough. Not for visual learners. No pictures. Not for people who aren't already very motivated to learn a language. Has a leaderboard and will track your streak, but not overall very game-like. If you finish all three courses you will be able to understand most conversations even if you don't know some of the words. Just try it!

-Brief experience: I've been using this app for approximately one week.

-Enjoyment: While not as entertaining as Duolingo, it's highly effective for enhancing speaking, writing, and quick thinking skills.

-Rapid learning: Achieved more progress with Rocket Languages in one week compared to a month on Duolingo.

-Course structure: Appreciate the well-organized format of the course.

-Technical issues: Encountered bugs on the desktop version, such as muffled audio playback of responses, despite using high-quality microphones like the Blue Yeti and Rode Pod Mic.

-Feature limitation: The response replay feature is currently available only on desktop, not on mobile.

-Affordable pricing: Purchased the Spanish course for $180 using the promo code "Insight 60." Advice not to spend more than this as courses often go on sale at significantly lower prices.

-Potential future purchase: Considering buying another course if there's a Christmas sale offering more than 60% discount, due to the excellent course structure.

-Strong recommendation: Highly recommend the course. Offers a refund option within 60 days if not satisfied.
-User Interface could be a bit better (not bad by any means)

This course works for me because it has a step by step approach that teaches by building on previously taught words and sentences.

I am enjoying the course.

The lessons starts off simple, but surprisingly conversations begin to be possible.
The repetition, speaking, reading and writing exercises all reinforce each other.
The culture lessons are a nice plus.
It is not a magic course, I have to put work into it, but it is well worth the time and effort.

We tried Pimsleur and Duolingo each for a month before finding Rocket Spanish. Two weeks into RS and we’re pleased and feel like we’re learning USEFUL conversational Espanol. We wsh RS allowed us our own learning profile on one account like Pimsleur does. Pimsleur Level 1 to us as Beginners was VERY boring and far less practical than Rocket. And, Duolingo is a nice phone app for vocabulary but we learned very little practical conversation Spanish. So for our money and the time we will invest Rocket was a very good find.

After only six Spanish lessons I happened to drive past a beer garden in a small town in Texas. There was a sign in the front that had a hand drawn humorous quip written in Spanish. I knew what it said! There was no stopping and mentally translating. I just read it and understood!

I decided to try Rocket Spanish because I wanted to learn some Spanish before a trip to Ecuador. I just returned, and the Spanish I learned with Rocket Spanish was not only extremely helpful, it made my trip so much more fun.

I really liked the full audio transcipts for the lessons that I could listen to anywhere (like when running, driving), then work on the remaining lesson pieces when I had time. It's great that the lessons are based on useful situations, and not just piles of random phrases. On my trip I was able to talk to people, order food, understand directions, and flight information.

At the airport the attendant asked us about tickets and carry on luggage. She spoke English but I was able to talk with her in Spanish instead. Possibly the best part is that with Rocket Spanish pronunciation practice, people were able to understand me.

Going to continue with Rocket Spanish, and keep working on those "rr's"! We are already planning another trip to Ecuador, and one to Spain. I tried some other programs, and I believe this is the best one you can buy. Thanks Rocket Spanish!

I am studying Spanish and really love this program. I recommended the Italian version to a friend who is going to Italy.
