We're glad to hear you're progressing with the course. Best of luck in continuing your lessons and for your travels!
I am just considering to purchase program and I am currently trying out the free lesson and it seems pretty good so far
I have really enjoyed the rocket languages learning experience! The only difficult thing is staying movivated! The price is fair, expensive but fair as you get a lot for your dollar. I would recommend writing down everything you say, think, and learn and reviewing it weekly if your true desire is to learn the language quickly and efficiently! I was satisfied with how the module layer the self although some restructuring should be considered as the gradual progression is self-affirming however every so often there is quit a large jump in difficulty. The tests at the end of each module should also be touched us as to test your problem solving and ability to infer from what you have learnt, instead of testing what you have memorized from the lesson. Other than that i continue to use rocket languages and would reccomend it to anyone who is interested in learning Spanish.
I think conceptually, it's great. The progression of language makes a lot of sense to me and feels natural. A few critiques: it is very geared toward traveling to South America as a tourist or for work or something, so if you're learning Spanish for any other reason, this doesn't give you a lot of the vocabulary that would probably be useful. Also, though the concept is great, there are still a lot of kinks that need to be worked out so that it actually functions properly. Things are often misspelled, especially in the later lessons. If there are multiple ways to say the same thing, there is almost no indication which way they expect you to use, and you get docked if you say the one other than expected. Also, the software has a really hard time picking up what you're saying, so you can pronounce things the exact same way, and one time it's correct and the next time it's incorrect because the software just isn't good at understanding verbal language. So overall, really good product, I just wish they had spent a little more time developing it and working out the bugs before rolling it out.

Hi Kristen - Thanks for the feedback. We are halfway through rewriting Rocket Spanish (Level 1 was re-released a couple of months ago). We hope to have the new Level 2 up soon. As far as the voice recognition goes, for the best results we recommend a headset microphone otherwise the system can have difficulty with short words/phrases in particular.
So far so good... I've tried and tossed two other Spanish apps... I felt Rocket Spanish was worth a shot and now think I'll be able to gain the level of conversational Spanish to not look like a total idiot.
Still learning about how to use the app. It seems to work well on my Android phone, and voice recognition does not work on my iPad. I wish I could explore more alternate words and phrases that seem commonly used...according toSpanish speakers I attempt to engage.
I was previously using another app to learn Spanish. After 145 days, I could understand quite a few words. And form sentences from multiple choices that appeared on the screen. But I had a very difficult time speaking or forming actual sentences. Let alone, have a conversation. After 6 days of using Rocket Spanish, I feel that it is preparing me better for the "Real" world. The other app is more "Game-like." I look forward to my Spanish Time much more with Rocket Spanish.
Quite good although the programme is not that easy to follow which makes it harder for me to buy.
I need a simple one with less computer glitches. Although this ones verbal pronunciations are good.
I also couldn’t understand jumping from modules throughout the trial.
No directions on how to get back to programme.
I love all the different methods you learn: guided conversation or written language lesson, flash cards quiz, listen and repeat, writing, say answer and short quizzes. Definitely a great, interactive way to learn. Highly recommend this program, definitely the best one I have found (after a lot of searching).
My only negative is they need a flash card app for all of the sentences and vocabulary in the program (not each lesson) which remember how well you know each card (worse cards are seen more often - the flash card quiz doesn't do this).

Thanks so much for your review, Scott. It's so great to hear that you are enjoying the course. I just wanted to let you know that in the Flashcards test, if you mark a word/phrase as Good or Hard, you will be given the opportunity to test yourself again on just those phrases, until you marked everything as Easy. I hope that helps!
