Rocket Spanish Reviews

Rocket Languages is awesome for people with a lot of time on their hands, but the lessons are far too long for someone with a busy schedule. The Hear It Say It and Write It sections are absurdly long and time consuming. I wish it were at or below 50.

Overall, definitely gets you "speaking" quite a bit. The great majority of this, however, is just rote copying of what was just heard. Regurgitation, not processing and internalizing. The rest is straight translation, which in my opinion is a far inferior way to learn a language. A good number of lessons use words/phrases/tenses that have never been discussed and are simply not explained. There are quite a few glitches with speech recognition, especially regarding numbers and accent marks. The material is HEAVILY focused on travel, which I get makes some sense if you're learning Spanish in order to travel, but I suspect a large number of people are like me, learning Spanish to use in everyday life. May just be a US bias though, where Spanish can be very useful almost everywhere.

Good but still I well give this company 1000 dollars.

Very good, I am learning very fast.This program is well done. I have yet to get a microphone. when i do the program will even be better. ppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp

I would like first of all to comment on Bill Landman's review of two days ago. I am not yet up to Level 9 (only at Level 5), but I have had no trouble with pronunciation being recognized thus far, so I jumped ahead to Lesson 9.11 to see if Mr. Landman's remarks would be confirmed. As it turned out, however, I had no trouble at all achieving a 100% rating in pronunciation on everything, with Record Difficulty set to "Hard." Thus, whatever problem Mr. Landman experienced does not seem to be with Rocket Spanish itself. Perhaps his microphone was not clear, or its output level was too low (or something) that day.

I have been very satisfied with Rocket Spanish. Although I'm only on Level 5, I have been using Rocket Spanish for several months (not with great regularity, obviously, or I'd be farther along). I had previously gone through at least 3 different CD courses, one of which I thought was excellent. However, CD courses are not interactive, of course. Nor did even the best one go to as high a level as Rocket Spanish.

I love rocket language because i learn a whole lot i am 11 years old and i went to this web site because I've been wanting to learn Spanish and know i now Spanish, so gracious/ thank you for helping me learn Spanish so adios/goodbye p.s i was commended to go to this web site by this girl named Sharon foster from YouTube.

Rocket Spanish is great! I started using Rocket Spanish a few months before travelling to Mexico and I was amazed at how much I learned. I have been to Mexico a number of times, but this vacation was so much more enjoyable because I was able to talk to locals in their own language. Once, I am done all the Rocket Spanish modules I will be purchasing the Korean course. I am no longer intimidated at the thought of learning a new language thanks to Rocket Languages.

i have always wanted to learn Spanish and all the websites I've used never work. rocket language teaches you everything you need to know about the way to write all the way to pronunciation. I am not the best at remembering things so i need lots of time to get it in my head and rocket science provides that .

I have just started with the Rocket Spanish Course and find the material well organized and designed to allow the pace to be just right for the aggressive and casual study alike. The Rocket Spanish App allows me to work on lessons during my morning commute and prepares me for my study sessions later in the evening. The use of a points system motivates me to stay consistent with my studies and I like that I am able to compare my voice recordings to the native speaker to really nail down the proper accent.

Thirty years ago, I used Pimsleur tapes purchased by my employer and local university continuing education classes that they paid for. I did obtain sufficient fluency at the time which worked well traveling to Mexico. But, "use it or lose it" caught up to me. I want to regain where I was and go further. With Spanish podcasts, other Internet options and Spanish cable channels, "using it so as not to lose it" is more available. And, I now have some "locals" who I know that have Spanish as their first language or, are like me, and "don't want to lose it" again. We meet every week to have coffee or tea and to chat with each other. It is a great way to meet new people and to bring people together! Finally, en español, "Deseo hacer un viaje a Ecuador y las islas de Galapagos, y tambien, un viaje a Costa Rica con "Habitat for Humanity". Me gustaria hablar en su lengua."
¡Muchas gracias, Rocket Spanish! ¡Amy and Mauricio "Rock It"!
