My first lesson was easy and a great first step towards mastering Spanish. My goal is to be able to converse with many of my neighbors and friends living in New Mexico. I plan to spend a couple of hours each day learning Spanish.
Well organized and easy to follow. Problems with microphone seemed to cause program to loose it's place in quiz. Once I learn the navigation plan it should be easier for me. I keep backing up and learning how to move forward. It has been a while since I used the system and the changes were a bit difficult to follow.
Very easy and friendly to use. I found myself looking forward to learn a new chapter everyday. And it was not boring. I have no regrets in purchasing this. I would definitely recommend my friends to sign up for Rocket Spanish.
I appreciate the various interactions offered with this course such as the recording aspect and the testing, also the ease of reviewing whatever lesson is lacking. Although I have just barely begun the course, I am surprised at how much I am retaining. I am satisfied I made the right choice.
Overall a decent program. I listened to the audio for the most part. The games started out being fun, but ended up being a little simple and repetitive. There are two things I would appreciate:
1. Organized sets of rules for verb conjugations, prepositions, etc. I ended up with several sheets from my high school Spanish class, and even though this program was so much better overall, this is the one thing that would've helped.
2. Simple videos, readings, or audio that is understandable from the current lesson and lessons before. Even if it was something like "See Jack run" it would be helpful and informative for Spanish learning.
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.
I've decided to start learning Spanish this year and I took some Spanish courses in Hong Kong. They were good, but I felt I didn't have a chance to listen to native Spanish enough or had enough oral practice, and so I started searching for online courses. I read a review page about online Spanish courses, as someone who is serious about learning, I bought the top 3 that were recommended, Rocket Languages was among them. And I have to say, Rocket Languages MUST BE the best choice. I bought the 3-level bundle, and it is ABSOLUTELY worth it! The materials, the technology, the extra information, the grammar, I totally love the course! I don't remember exactly how much I paid for the course, but I remember the amount is equal to roughly 3-4 months of Spanish course in Hong Kong. Frankly, you can't learn that much in 4 months, a lesson per week, in a group setting with 20 students in a classroom. But then with Rocket Spanish, I can learn daily, and re-learn if certain parts are hard, and I can listen to the conversations on the bus, in the gym, etc.
In fact, I've already recommended my girlfriend to buy Rocket German, and friends from my Spanish class to buy the program.
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!

It's great to hear that you are enjoying the lessons and finding them well explained. We pride ourselves on comprehensiveness so it's great that you are seeing that in your studies. We wish you all the best with your Spanish journey with Rocket Languages!
I've learn a lot more from Rocket Spanish.After my 6 trial,I hope there is a next level of free Spanish lesson.Because I've enjoy learning it through my maestros.I love Spanish language.And I enjoy to learn through the audio.
I've bought both Rocket Spanish and Rocket Italian, and find both to be excellent language-learning resources. The mix of timed repetition, different practical scenarios (at a restaurant, at a hotel, asking for directions, etc.), and the equal emphasis on speaking, listening, and writing are very helpful. I recommend Rocket Languages. (The only reason I'm not likely to buy again is that I don't currently plan to learn any additional languages.)

It’s great to hear that the mix of Audio Lesson scenarios and skill practice is supporting your learning in both languages, Jim. Best of luck with your continued progress!
