Rocket Languages review criteria
I have been learning Spanish for quite some time now, but was looking for something to help advance my talking and listening skills. I had considered Rosetta Stone, but that received mixed reviews. Impartial websites consistently gave great reviews for Rocket Spanish, and I can see why. It is quite pricey compared to some language courses (I think it was about £90 all in). That, however, is a fraction of the cost of Rosetta Stone, which doesn't let you keep your learning material after the year is up. With Rocket Languages, you get a lifetime of access to materials. There is an audio conversation at the start which introduces you to new words and phrases at a reasonable rate, then there are tests ranging from listen and repeat to listen and write. I like how you can "speak" to the characters by taking on the part of others and then listen to your conversation at the end. It is good to know how you sound when you speak Spanish. This is the best language course I have ever used and I don't hesistate to recommend it.
The most efficient way to learn a language, I recently finished the first level of the german language course and went to berlin. I was absolutley impressed with the progress I made. definitely recommended to anyone who wants to learn the german language!
I just started, I have no idea how I could rate your software at the present time. I do like that the program seems that I will be able to read and write as well becoming fluent. I expect the flash cards will serve me well. I have used them quite frequently in the past.
My experience with this software has been amazing. I've only been using it for a month for 1 hour a day, and my ability to understand and speak French has grown exponentially. I can listen to French songs and watch French TV and understand a good chunk of what they are saying!
so far Rocket french has proving to be a great learning tools toward my journey of fluency in french. I really enjoy the lesson- how it work on every skills needed to achieve fluency like listenning, speaking etc. So far i'm happy with my decision to my this pogram.
Rocket Spanish is pretty good. It's certainly better than other programs I have tried. Every so often it tests you on words you haven't learned. In one case it ends Module 1 with a survival kit of a list of 300 words, then assumes you know them in Module 2. This is ludicrous. One or two lessons refer to a beginners' book that is not included. The good part is the interactive call and response and the ability to easily go back and review lessons so you don't forget as much as you move on. Most words reoccur in several lessons so you don't forget. A few are not.
It is very frustrating that I cannot offline download the lessons in the app itself on my iPhone. It would have been better that way. I want to be able to use it in the car that way. I know you can download it through iTunes, but that is too cumbersome.

(updated 2019): Hi Michael - This functionality is now on the apps. You can download the audio to your device at the press of a button!
My preference would have been to experience other French tutorial products first for comparative purposes, however, this does not diminish my initial assesment of RocketFrench which has been surprisingly impressive for the three modules completed so far. The product is very well structured with an intuitive interface and excellent audio tracks. The light humorous approach makes the work of learning French easy, fun and most of all memorable. I believe that my re-assesment of RocketFrench will probably be deserving of five stars as I progress through the remaining modules.
After searching the web for many different language learning software, I stumbled upon Rocket Languages and immediately fell in love with not only the way it teaches but also the leaderboard that shows you how you are doing compared to others learning the language. With the pleasant real life conversations and the awesome clearing spoken words, it has made learning german a breeze! Gute arbeit Rocket Language!
I really appreciate the reminder and motivational emails - I lose motivation quite regularly and this gets me back on track.
I also like that I can jump ahead, pick and choose the lessons so I don't have to waste time going through something that I already know.
Doing the tests is the cement - it's so important to hear and say, not just read. However I get frustrated when my iPad doesn't recognise a one syllable word I try to pronounce in French! :-) How can "leur" be so difficult!?!? ;-)
