Rocket Languages review criteria
I tried the intro lesson, and it wasn't enjoyable. When practicing pronunciation, I would fail to pronounce a word, but I would get 100%. I have a good microphone, but I had to yell to get half of what was said recorded. When it did show, I said 100% the playback would only have recorded 50% of what I said. I was yelling most of the time, which was really irritating. I practiced writing skills without knowing special characters, so I got most of the words wrong, although I had all the necessary letters.
I absolutely hated yelling into the microphone and then hearing a partial version of what I had yelled. So far, I hate Rocket Spanish. I completed the lessons, and if not for the fact that I had heard many of the basic words in the past, I would not have remembered most of what I learned. Thankfully, I am on a trial. Thank you, Rocket, for the trial period. I will continue the trial one more time and then give Babbel a try, trusting their money-back guarantee..

Rocket language courses are interesting and fun with what seems like a common learning template for all their courses. I purchased several Rocket language courses but they are just the elementary level. I would purchase higher level courses if there were better incentives or deals.
Excellent product.
The voice recognition feature is not functioning well sometimes
Thank you!
Rocket Spanish is a great platform to learn Spanish. It allows you to learn at your own pace and provides all the tools to get you to the next level.
The lessons are extremely thorough and I appreciate it even though they are challenging at times. Which is a good thing. I have tried other methods of learning Spanish and so far am really liking Rocket Languages.
I feel like I am already learning and understanding some Spanish.
I had tried another language program which did not work for me.
So this program is a pleasant change
The content of the course seems good through module 1. The voice recognition has some challenges at times. An example is even though I say the phrase and it is recorded for playback, the system will indicate that it did not get it and therefore cannot validate it. The nice playback feature in Windows is not available in Android.
Very good training in Spanish. The lessons are carefully thought out, build on each other, and stress repetition and practice. The actors are believable, and the introductory phrases are helpful to travellers. The grammar is introduced later; an earlier discussion (for example) of the difference between soy and estoy would have been helpful (I looked it up), as it would help the learning process.
Overall, a very polished, well-thought out program.
What a great way to learn Spanish! The lessons are fun and so engaging that each makes me want to advance to the next one. This on-line course offers everything -- hearing the language spoken, reading it, writing it, speaking it, and even watching it being spoken (which is surprisingly helpful.) This 73-year-old is learning much faster than he could have imagined six decades ago in school. The course designers clearly know how to teach. Each lesson seems to offer the right amount of new words and concepts along with previous material. You can mark phrases as difficult or easy for future practice, or favorites for study. And for idioms (phrases that don't translate literally), there is a little "lit." button to press to show a literal translation -- a great learning aid. They seem to have thought of everything. I couldn't recommend this course more highly.

It’s so great to hear that you’re getting so much out of the course, John, and enjoying its comprehensive approach. We’re excited to see where your language-learning journey takes you and we love having you as part of our learner community!
This is a fabulous course for beginners. I can literally see myself in situations given in the modules, interactive and lucid. Cultural lessons are also engaging. Overall it is good value for money.
