Rocket Languages Reviews

I like how everything is "picked apart" so that it truly makes sense! Using 2 different voices is helpful, too.
The topics are useful, and start exactly where a newcomer would have to in a spanish-speaking country - greeting, giving and getting names, and ordering coffee!!

I have been making so much progress. I now know the Spanish letters and numbers i come to class prepared and ready. In only 2 weeks i spoke fluently and amazingly ROCKET LANGUAGES IS THE mejor and i love it

So far the pace is overwhelming. I think I would retain more if the lessons were cut in half. Half the time with half the amount of new words. I am also finding some bad issues with the voice recognition. I'm considering going to something lower paced. I don't care if it takes me longer to finish a course. I'm not retaining enough at the pace.

This is the best spanish course I have found. I have tried Rosetta stone, group classes, baselang, and even a private tutor and my spanish has advanced the quickest with this course. I listen to the audio lessons on the way to work and find them very beneficial.

This review pertains to Rocket Spanish and the Android APP. The short version is I am very happy with the format and content. My rate of learning has increased significantly since I started using Rocket Spanish. I will discuss the pros below and the several cons that keep this from being a 5 star rating.
After using Doulingo daily for 2 years (almost no missed days!) I am able to read some Spanish and have a fairly good vocabulary but cannot understand spoken spanish or speak Spanish well at all. I knew I needed something more to take it to the next level. After much research I decided on Rocket Spanish.
The pros:
Right away I am speaking Spanish sentences.
I can “hear” Spanish better. This has been the most fun for me because I feel I can understand TV, radio, and regular people (to some extent) so much better.
I love the lesson format. Hear it, say it, write it, know it (memory recall), and then the flash cards. I love the flash cards. The test portion is weak. Not going say it is a con but its 5 easy questions that don’t change if you redo the test.
I get as much help as I want on correctly annunciating the words. This is huge. I love that I can spend as much time as I want on correctly saying the words.

Looked at various learning programs and the one looked more like what I wanted.
I am very much interested in being able to make friends with our Mexican guide when I go fishing the next time in Loreto Baja.
I have been there several times and it would be so much more fun to be able to converse on some level with our guide

I have tried learning Spanish multiple times, in school, using other apps and even trying out Spanish groups but nothing seemed to stick. This program helps you to not only learn it,but also helps you to retain the information. By talking out loud, writing it and also by having the many other tools, this program really helps you to actually learn another language.

Rocket Spanish gives me the structure that I need in learning Spanish. There are opportunities to speak, read, and write in Spanish. The real-world conversations in the lessons are excellent. It is also very motivating to progress through each stage. I am truly enjoying the pace with each lesson. If you want to learn and developing a solid foundation in the Spanish language and Latin American culture. Rocket Spanish is for you.

It would be nice to interact with someone every now and again. Some lessons audio are a bit too long (25 min) and I think would be better to break them up or have videos instead of audio only. Overall, I am pleased of the format and would like more variety. Longer quizzes might also be improved with variety of testing methods.

Well organized and easy to follow. Problems with microphone seemed to cause program to loose it's place in quiz. Once I learn the navigation plan it should be easier for me. I keep backing up and learning how to move forward. It has been a while since I used the system and the changes were a bit difficult to follow.
