We’re so glad to hear you’re seeing real improvement in your Spanish skills, Michele—keep up the fantastic work!
The voice recognition in the edge browser is terrible. I have to repeat 3-4 times to get a valid input and it randomly pulls up words that can no way be attributed to what I am saying. I'm working in a quiet room on a brand new laptop, so there is no excuse for it.

Sorry to hear that, Karl! For the best experience, we recommend using Google Chrome, although Edge should also be compatible. Please reach out to our team ([email protected]) and we’ll be happy to investigate this further with you.
So far it seems the best out there for integrative learning without direct online tutoring or being in direct immersion in a native speaking country. I do have a little reservation about the pronunciation practice occasionally letting me "squeak by" too easily or not recognizing when I record my answer; For the most part though the pronunciation practice has been a great tool for learning how to pronounce the language better.

Add Spanish games like this game is boring and people do the same thing every time nothing fun

We’re sorry to hear that Rocket Spanish wasn’t as engaging as you’d hoped, Joseph. We’d really appreciate hearing more about how we could improve your experience—please feel free to reach out to our team with any additional feedback ([email protected]).
this has been a great supplement to other tools that I am using. It allows me to listen and repeat when I am driving and if I play one segment 3 times in a day, I am confident that I know the words and phrases. I think this will really improve my speaking overall.

Really glad to hear that, Gary! We can’t wait to see where your Spanish language-learning journey takes you.
Unfortunately, it's not going to be "awesome".
1. There is way too much English in the units. As a former language teacher I believe focus should be in the target language as much as possible.
2. The voice recognition does not work and cannot be calibrated. Doing the speaking units is useless.
3. The write it section should check what you wrote and not let you progress until you have it correct.

Hi Scott - Thanks for your review. It is important to note that the first few lessons do have a reasonable amount of English, and that this lessens as you progress through the course and get to know more Spanish. The voice recognition does work, and if you are having problems then please check the FAQs, contact customer support, or try the Rocket Languages Android/iOS apps. The "Write it" section does check what you write. As with all our activities the rating we give is a guideline that you can either accept or rate yourself.
I love you, Rocket Spanish. I am learning so much. I really appreciate that your technology is easy to use. You are the BEST! The lessons are fun and never, ever boring. The subject matter is always interesting. Just today I wrote down three pages of new vocabulary from one new lesson. When I take a class at a language school in person I never get that much new vocabulary in one lesson! Thank you so much for this great way of learning Spanish!
so far so good would be so much better i lived in spanish speaking country already
very easy to follow and I am finding myself retaining words
I am just considering to purchase program and I am currently trying out the free lesson and it seems pretty good so far
