Rocket Languages review criteria
Hello,
so far I appreciate Rocket Russian. I think it's a very good learning app. I have been using it since 6 days now, and I have also bought a lifetime subscription for all 3 levels.
Plus:
-) Saving vocabs functionality
-) realistic dialogues
-) overall engaging content
Minus:
-) the price!! It's super expensive (even though I got the beginning of July discount, but 185€ is still quite some money for an app; but let's see, maybe it is worth the price; there is a 60 days guaranteed refund policy still).
Improvement recommendations:
-) please add the "Saved Vocab" function to mobile phone too!!
-) general improvement of mobile app to be more like desktop web app; desktop web app has much more functionality than mobile app (and I guess most people nowadays prefer a mobile app over a desktop web app)
-) dark mode for mobile phone
Still have to see how it's going to be for the rest of the first 60 days, but currently I would still buy again and recommend it to a friend.
Best regards,
Jacob

I am only at Module 1 - 3.4, and just happy with my present results.
completely new to Russian. This course starts you out from a very basic place and develops your skills to knowing beginner words and phrases. Can't wait to continue to learn more and more as I go deeper into the courses.

I like that along with learning to speak and listen to the language, you get to also learn it's alphabet and proper spelling of the words you are learning.

Thanks so much for your feedback! We’re glad you're enjoying the balance between speaking, listening, and learning the Cyrillic writing system. Wishing you continued success in your studies, John!
I like the pronunciation verification where you can answer the dialog in Russian language and it grades the quality of your pronunciation.
It is very interactive. I like also Pimsleur Russian very much. Pimsleur gets very difficult after lesson 15. And there is no verification. You must have a Russian speaker to verify your pronunciation. I am afraid if you learn it wrong you will always be wrong. So in conclusion I like the dialogues from Pimsleur Russian, but I am learning and reinforcing my learning with Rocket Russian.
I have tried to learn other languages such as Italian on other websites such as Rosetta Stone. However, they never truly helped me learn and absorb the language. When I decided that I wanted to settle on Russian, my parents helped me the best way they could by telling me about the Rocket Russian audio course. I have never learned more about another language than I have now.
Really good course, I'm studying Russian where the grammar aspect is crucial given the case declension of words, so the only feature that is missing is grammar, maybe this intentional, but I think it would help to have grammar chapters based on the existing lessons.

Thanks so much for your review. Please note that every Module of Rocket Russian includes both our Interactive Audio lessons, as well as our Language and Culture (grammar) lessons. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any trouble locating these lessons. All the best with your language learning!
Wonderfully engaging and well-structured course! The voices are clear, precise and melodious. Jessica, in particular, is an absolute delight to listen to! Natalia and Ivan are superb as native speakers of Russian. The progression of the lessons comes naturally, does not overwhelm, gently nudging you towards fluency. Impressive! I wish I had partaken in a course of this quality back when I was learning English! I would have advanced at a much quicker pace! Recommended!
