The course is excellent and a great value! It is really helping me to learn Korean for an upcoming trip. I plan to purchase other Rocket Language courses in Germany, French, Russian, Spanish and Italian.

Overall, I understand the structure of the course, but it seems like many aspects, especially in testing, are done by a cookie-cutter algorithm which makes some really critical mistakes.

First, some technical issues. I use Chrome, as recommended, and there are a few things missing. Most notably, the on-screen Korean keyboard is not there. Also, I often do not have the button to mark a Writing lesson as completed. Finally, unlike in the app, there is no way for me to cut a voice recording off if I wish to restart, which often means waiting quite a while for the program to try to sort through gibberish.

Now, for the "cookie-cutter" aspect that bothers me. Frequently in the Audio lessons, the native speakers will say something that was not part of the lesson. This is fine, except that these phrases get put in the testing sections. For example, in the very first lesson there are introductions of the two native speakers. One says that he served in the Korean Marine Corps, then was discharged and migrated to the United States with his parents. He says this in Korean. This is a great way to get acquainted with the sound of the language. However, then this phrase comes up in the testing section of the exam.

I really enjoyed using rocket languages! It was fun and comprehensive especially because of the audio feature. In a span of just 2 days, i was able to speak in Korean in a conversational way! More Power! :D I would definitely recommend this to my family and friends.

I tried out Rosetta Stone for a few weeks to try and learn Korean, but I hated it. The learning format was so confusing. I had no idea what I was learning. I looked up more ways to learn Korean and I found Rocket Languages. It is 100 times better than Rosetta Stone and I actually understand what I'm learning. 10/10 would buy again.

Amazing, but the understanding my speech could do some work. Sometimes I'll say it the same and get a low grade, but after multiple attempts after I'll get the 100%. And short words aren't understood at all by the computer at times.

It was quite helpful for a beginner like me! It was quite annoying when I said something and it marked it as incorrect but if I said the same thing after a few tries then I would end up with a hundred percent. But it really did help me with understanding and sentence structure. I would recommend this site to anyone who would like to learn a brand new language such as Korean.

I purchased Rocket Korean in August of 2016, yet I have just now begun exploring just how many things it can do! I absolutely love it and get online everyday. I have a 2 hour minimum study goal per day, and with Rocket Languages, it is SO easy to accomplish that! The two hours fly right by!

One thing I don't like is how in the Interactive Audio Lessons, there are TONS of extremely long phrases I've already found just in Module 1. I haven't even bothered studying them because it's 1) irrelevant to me and my study goals, and 2) it's simply too hard for a beginner to learn without knowing the bits and pieces that make up the phrases. In other words, I'd like either the long sentences to go away, be able to select which vocabulary I want to study, or the teacher to break it down to every word in the sentence.

All in all, my Rocket Languages experience has been awesome. As a 15 year old, it's hard to find language learning material I can afford and also be extremely useful and worth the money. And now I know by the amount of Korean knowledge I already have is that Rocket Languages definitely meets my strict criteria as a teenage language learner!

Outstanding Learning tools, Other Language learning tools have nothing on Rocket Korean, I can learn on my Laptop at home or on my phone during breaks at work. And Depending on the Area I am working , I can put my ear piece in and learn away, I really love the Voice recognition
