Rocket Languages Reviews

I moved to France without speaking a word of French and bought this program after reading some good reviews of it online. I've bought some other online resources but Rocket French is the only one I've ended up coming back to repeatedly for self-study. The dialogues are well done: I like the brief explanations of the vocab and the repetition is helpful without being tedious. I've actually been able to use the structures in real conversation here in France. The program has been improved a lot even since I bought it, and now you can practice what you learn in every possible format--- writing, reading, speaking, listening --- and the ability to download the audio is great if you want to listen to it in your car. Sometimes I listen to a dialogue several times before looking at the transcript and this helps me figure out how well my listening comprehension is coming along. I'm really happy with this program and recommend it to anyone looking for an entertaining way to learn French.

The audio lessons are presented very well. They are by far the best part of the program. The written tests and multiple choice tests work fine. The interactive voice tests are sometimes glitchy. As others have said, the website and iOS app can sometimes have issues. The iOS app is not as quite as fully functional as the website, but still pretty good. Overall, I'm happy with the program. I suspect it will continue to get better with time. I'm not disappointed with my purchase.

I finally started using Rocket French properly and really like it. Each level is well presented and the various ways to practice and review the conversations are superb. Also all the bonus supplements such as the alphabet, numbers, telling the time are wonderful. I totally recommend Rocket Languages.

I never thought I could learn French in a very short while with my tight schedules(School and Work),thanks to Rocket Languages for their support,through mails....wonderful apps that allows you to listen and repeat,listen and spell,listen and respond.....It has all made it a wonderful experience to learn easily and have fun at the same time.Now I can go to French speaking countries and say Salut!

I have tried a number of programs, books, cd's etc...I always come back to Rocket Languages. Very satisfying to know you can learn another language so quick and efficiently. I love these programs and always recommend Rocket Languages when I hear of someone wanting to learn an new language.

I am only on day 9 of RF, but my experience thus far has been excellent. I have been trying to teach myself French with various books and programs over the past few years, and I haven't always been terribly disciplined up until about a year ago. Like many, speaking is my greatest hurdle. I am enjoying the record and playback features, and comparing my voice with the pre-recorded sentences until I get it right. Explanations are clear and helpful. Customer support is also excellent - questions are answered quickly. Thanks, Rocket French!

Rocket French is the best of the many French language teaching programs I have had experience with. I had a minimum amount of French training in high school and college just to meet the language requirement for my chosen field. Language learning at the time consisted of textbook, classroom and language laboratory exercises. For me this was torture as it took away from the time I could devote to the science and mathematics I needed to concentrate on to pursue a career in medicine. I am now retired but I have been involved with teaching students in other fields of education. Three years ago I decided to learn French. As I see it, the availability of computerized language programs of different varieties with voice recognition software has been a tremendous advance in language learning. I began with Rosetta Stone and enjoyed the experience and found it to be very helpful and I am happy that I had that experience. I also spent three weeks in France at an immersion school. I subscribe to Yabla which for a conscientious person can simulate an immersion experience in France. I enrolled in News in Slow French and look forward to their weekly output. Of course I also bought a book on French grammar and studied that.

Is the easiest course on the planet, even for me that I am Mexican I can learn French in English. Es el curso más fácil en el mundo, inclusive para mi que hablo español, puedo aprender frances en ingles, me encanta Rocket!!

I have 3 previous French courses (Premium, Premium Plus, and Platinum). I have been extremely satisfied with them; I listen to the audio lessons all of the time to increase my comprehension of spoken French. I purchased the Travelogue package and have been very disappointed that the audio is in English. Without being able to listen to the entire lesson in French, it completely takes away the audio experience and turns it into just a series of exercises to be completed. Is there any way to change the audio portion into French, instead of the woman reading the lesson in English?

I work as a bartender in a beautiful little island in Panama. After a week searching for the perfect French course, I found it. And I also found an awesome team on the other side of the screen. The costumer service is impeccable. I love languages and in my profession, learning a new language is a hole new world of opportunities.
