Rocket Languages Reviews

It is a usefull language learning system, I especially like the MP3 files, however I have spotted a few problems with the website, these are: Unit = 2.11 the website says metro = Underground however it Should be = metro = meter & Underground = metropolitan Its ok to put in names & so not translate them - But not ok to say a name is a translation when it is not. Unit = 2.12 the website says Lavoro manuale = Labor however it Should be = Lavoro manuale = manual work & Lavoro = Labor Unit = 2.13 the website says Quant'è? = How much does it come to? however it Should be = Quant'è? = How much? & venuto a = come to Unit = 3.4 the website says Abbastanza = Fairly bad. however it Should be = male = bad Unit = 3.4 the website says Allora riposa e cerca di dormire. = Ok then, have a rest and try to sleep. however it Should be = Ok then, have a rest = Ok allora, avere un periodo di riposo Unit = 3.7 the Problem is English words on wrong (italian) side for: ham, cabbage & she arranges Unit = 3.7 the Problem is all più words have extra letters in them = più Unit = 3.7 the Problem is ' is confusing in It's hotter (more hot) today than yesterday.

I have been off and on in my learning, but it's nice to know that Rocket French is always available! So, even though I haven't been able to take classes at the local college, I can still work on learning French. Also, I haven't checked out the news in awhile, but I just read about the iOS app for my iPhone! Yay!!

These types of programs are new for learning languages and being new they have to be created with hard work so with each new feature we get a better learning experience for the next language. I'm happy to support RocketLanguages by purchasing new language modules. I'm happy to provide them with feedback because they appreciate it. Thank you for the first edition iOS interfaces and thank you for the ability to search through all the lessons for interesting topics to review and thank you for continuing to add and improve. I like the badge system, the forums, the motivational musings, the new dashboard, the ability to download pdf and mp3 formats to use offline. And most of all, I like the animated people that record the lessons. I find the German lessons I am doing now just as fun as the French.

Great work. Thank you.

Good and easy. Studying for an A1 German exam to get a German Visa. I do have some German experience which does help but everything is coming back quickly thanks to this program! The native speaking English mixed with German makes it a lot easier to learn in my opinion!

I'm already feeling like I might be able to speak a little German, and sooner rather than later. As an auditory learner, I appreciate the focus of this course so much, and I am really enjoying it so far!

Rocket German is a great interactive language program. I am volunteering with German students and marvel at their perfect English! I thought I should learn their language since I have the opportunity to speak and perfect it with native Germans! I like the fact that I have the ability to go over (and over) a certain phrase or sentence until I master it! RocketRecord has been very helpful in getting my pronunciation just right! I looking forward to learning and speaking the native language of my German friends!

Love the different approaches to learning and being able to record and playback my own voice. Very extensive content. Would not like to do this in a classroom. I also had a very present experience talking to someone at Rocket on the phone.

Rocket Languages is an awesome way to learn German or any language. It is light years ahead of the way I learned French at High School long ago.

In place of learning lists of words, you are given phrases to use so that you learn idioms rather than setting yourself up to use stilted expressions that don't accord with actual usage. You can still build your own vocabulary lists and export them to a file in your computer; and you can create your own notes to accompany these lists to gain understanding of how the words are used and case modified. I was offered .csv but would prefer .doc, but this is a minor matter.

The ability to download the initial conversational lessons is a great plus along with also being able to download .pdf files so that you can refresh yourself in these lessons again in a different context such as in your car.

Learning to say words, phrases and sentences from native speaking German tutors ensures that you learn to speak with a minimum of foreign accent, and the repetition with variations speeds the assimilation of the language. This experience is enhanced by your being able to record and re-record your rendition of a recording made for you by a tutor.

I am very surprised by the method of Rocket language. Recently acquired the Rocket german course, and the lessons are interesting and interactive. Of course, for this kind of course you with need a lot of motivation and discipline, but the advantage is that they give you guidelines to design your learning strategy. I'm really happy with my progress in German. Tschüss!

Great language course with tools that are easy to use and reinforce learning. Lot's of practice with pronunciation. I like that one of the instructors is native and one is not, provides a balanced perspective and real world examples.
