Just started (lesson 2). I Had Spanish in HS a long time ago. I want to become more proficient. We visit Mexico often, and we will visit Spain next year. I'd like to converse with native speakers and be able to understand them, but I think they may speak too fast.
I'm still on lesson 1.1. But so far, I'm hooked and hope to stick with daily lessons. I love that the program records and scores your verbal responses. I gave only 3 stars on "likely to buy again" because I want to successfully complete this course before I consider purchasing another.
Enjoying it very much so far. Raised by Spanish mother, non-Spanish father. Have bits and pieces of the language, good pronunciation, needed something to seal the deal with :) this seems worth the money
I really like the way the modules are introduced such that you can make use of the Spanish you are learning immediately. Tried Rosetta Stone and did not find their methodology at all useful matching pictures to words ...... so far this is much better and more intuitive for me.
I looked at several different programmes and Rocket seemed to be a good fit for me and possibly the most complete. I like that we are learning conversations not just words right from the start and the exercises help imprint the learning. The survival book is very helpful but it would have been much better with the audio.. It would be good to encompass some of the things in the book in the lessons. I found the feminine and masculine and plurals etc especially with the symbols over some letters quite confusing until I read the survival guide.
I don't want to write a review at this time because I'm having difficulty taking the course because of technical issues.
I am in the present in contact with technical support to resolve my issue. My issue is this: When I hear a Spanish word or phrase that I am to repeat using the little mike icon, it doesn't give me near enough time to complete the word before cutting out. So, the other icon comes up and say "please try again". I am very frustrated with this issue. I hope technical support can fix this.
This issue just started up this week. Otherwise, I really like the course overall, and plan to continue as soon as my issue is fixed.

Hi Henry. We are endeavoring to get in touch with you via email so that we can set up a Skype call to walk through the issues.
I have tried to learn Spanish for some time. Had used another popular online program and definitely increased vocabulary, but failed to see real progress. I love Rocket Spanish! It is cost efficient. I can go at my own pace, without feeling guilty or having a certain amount of time, and I am learning!! I love the various modes incorporated into this program! So many opportunities to practice!
Absolutely wonderful course/product. I enthusiastically recommend. Great format. The interactive features Awsome. If you buy hey the ‘whole package’. Now 15th Anniversary Sale Get a huge 60% off - limited time only....
If you buy Part 1 as I did you’ll receive the package in deal 2 & 3. Buying the whole lot saves you money because the program is so great it’s addictive. From a desk top computer or iPad / iPhone (App is free) you can study anywhere anytime. All work from your platforms are captured/saved. Customer support is super. Quick helpful responses. A great product at a great price. Take advantage of the savings
I had issues at the beginning of my own errors but once customer support helped me I’m one happy camper so to speak. Love it. Very satisfied. Now back to learning - made easy. Awsome work putting this package together. Often feel for Sayaka & Kenny whose repeated translations & expiation are great for me but the level of work to put it tighter demands respect. どうもありがとうございました
I was astonished by the sexism and gender stereotypes, there were even lessons about the nativity. I wanted to share these lessons with my partner, who is more advanced than me, but I was too embarrassed, and some lessons were unlistenable for me, due to these problems.
Also, the lessons themselves tend to just ask you to repeat what you have heard, and only occasionally challenge the listener to take what they've learned in the lesson an actually apply it to make new sentences.
On a positive note I was pleased that the instructors would often add multiple ways of saying things.

Hi Nicholas - Thanks for your feedback, and we will take that onboard at our annual review of course content. Certainly the stereotyping is an issue we are looking at, even though a lot of these attitudes are still prevalent in South American culture. As is Christianity, hence the nativity lessons.
Just beginning to use Rocket Spanish and so far I like the ability to use the information in conversation, rather than just seeing endless words and phrases that generally wouldn't get used in everyday life. Much of what is taught in standard school is basic/background, which is necessary, but this helps relate to real life.
