I like Rocket French! Nice interactive lessons, useful phrases, and interesting content.
Response from Rocket Languages
We're so glad to hear it, Alex. Keep up the good work!
So far this has been my preferred language learning course! The lessons are fun and interactive, and there seems to be a ton of information packed into each lesson. The price is excellent compared to other programs, and the lifetime purchase compared to a monthly subscription is preferred!

Thank you so much, Michael. Here at Rocket, we understand that language learning is not a one-day or even a one-year task; it's an ongoing journey, which is why we provide lifetime access. We wish you all the best with your French language learning and can't wait to see where it takes you!
I have only been using Rocket Languages for a couple of weeks but find it very engaging and stimulating. The way the material and language is introduced is not over whelming and by the end of each lesson you feel confident in what you have learnt. The focus is not on just repeating phrases but learning to understand how they can be used in many contexts. There is a big emphasis on pronunciation which is brilliant. I will be sure to recommend to my friends who are living in France and need to learn the language as they are not native speakers.

Thank you, Sian! Here at Rocket, we try to ensure our lessons deliver as much grammatical and pronunciation information as possible so you can really understand what phrases mean and how to use them. We're thrilled that you feel you're making progress learning French in this way, and we can't wait to see where it leads you!

The fact that you can practice all 4 skills: reading, writing, listening and speaking is wonderful. I love it.

I used to be very impressed by rocketfrench, but there are a lot of things that I don't agree with anymore after almost two years of using it.
The good:
1. Listening to native speakers, repeating it, comparing it, having the scripted conversations - all that is good for pronunciation and I enjoy that.
2. there is a structure
The bad:
1. Updates that feel like beta-versions -> I did not pay to be a beta tester
2. The translation approach is outdated and will not lead to fluency.
3. The translation approach often does not make sense in the grammar chapters.
hints as to which version of multiple options to use are literal translations instead of contextual hints, that would lead to better understanding of the concepts underneath.
4. As in many other courses it is mostly very formal written french that you learn, sometimes some "real spoken french" is mixed in and that mix does not make much sense as it mixes different "registers" like formal, neutral, familiar french.
Most upsetting are the updates, that change the programm and not always for the better.
If it were always changes for the better, improving things and giving more options, I would be fine with that.
But sometimes things are being taken away and taking things away from customers is not a good idea.
That is not a problem for new customers, cause they are not missing anything.
But it is a problem for me as a user of almost two years and I don't have what I bought anymore.
