Rocket Spanish Reviews

Excellent so far -- love all the options to practice, including speaking and writing.

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.

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.

Two months in to learning Spanish. I've tried and failed in the past, but I'm really enjoying Rocket so far. The conversations are fun, and the multiple ways of covering the material afterwards seems to make the phrases stick a lot better, compared to some dry textbook or classroom.

I'm headed to South America for vacation in a few months, and I'm feeling hopeful that by the time I get there - I might not be a total "turista"!

I think Rocket Languages is a good site for people over the age of 15 to use to learn a language because there are some suggestive things in this program. Also your program is a bit repetitive. I could understand repeating a phrase 1 or 2 times but you guys have us repeat and repeat over and over. Thanks! ♥

I've been at this spanish thing for 4 years and it has been a challenge. I'm in the over 60 category and I'm just not one to give up.
It's just never been fast enough. after using many other methods and courses books and tapes,,, I found rocket spanish to be smooth and interactive more over than others. None of these courses are complete I feel but lets get to the point where it's fun to chat in the new language and I see this is the opportunity with consistent practice presented here. And they give me 60 days to be proven wrong. I don't see it,,, life time access is great. My Spanish improved with the trial version.
I will send my friends and colleagues here first

My only complaint is that the Spanish keyboard is difficult to use and would be best if it were just built directly into the screen instead of me having to pull it out for each individual exercise. Other than that, I love this system. It is so user friendly, personalized, and easy to navigate. It is thorough in the way it teaches the material and gives the user a lot of freedom to make choices along the way.

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.

There 5 ways to rate Rocket Languages. The last on is "How was the Customer Service?" There isn't a "not applicable" option. That would be my response! There has never been a need for customer service with in the 3 years or so I have been using these programs. My only request is to shorten the introductions to the lessons. Or maybe only eliminate them all together.

this is a very good medium for those who have that craziness to achive somthing in there live . I had an excellent experience learning my favorite languages .The online mentors here are supportive and cross qustions at each and every step thi seems that i am sitting in a classroom understanding with a great ease
