Rocket Languages Reviews

Sehr Gut! it's a really good course to do, even if no one you know speaks German, you can hone your skills with the mock conversations provided in the course. Excellent to use, and it keeps you motivated. Keep practicing, and you'll understand and speak German at your own pace. Lots of fun as well.

I read several language course reviews before choosing the Rocket program to learn to speak German. I made the right choice! I have used the Paul Noble cd's in the past and loved them as an intro to German, but they were not enough. I also tried the Pimsleur method for a couple of lessons, but I really did not like it. Too repetitive and boring. But this Rocket program is a great blend of the conversational explanations I liked about the Paul Noble cds, the ability to listen in my car to the audio conversations, and that added element of using my laptop to learn the grammar and writing that I really need to round out my skills. I love to be able to hear the sounds, practice speaking, and then see the correct spelling of the words. Seeing the spelling really helps me correct my pronunciation and start seeing patterns in the language. I consider myself a visual learner, so seeing the written word is within my comfort zone of learning style. However, I really need to be able to train my ear and practice all the new sounds that come with a new language. This program offers a great mix of teaching and evaluation methods.

I am amazed at how quickly I am picking up this language and how much fun I am having doing it. I am also thankful that the other languages I want to learn are available as well! I also love the Customer Service department as they answered my questions quickly and thoroughly!
Thank you so much for such a great program!

Rocket Languages has made learning Spanish much easier. I always wanted to learn a 2nd language and even took Spanish in high school, but Rocket Spanish incorporates the vocabulary, grammar, exercises and quizzes with the ability to hear the correct pronunciations from a native speaker. This is much better than learning the pronunciations from someone who has only visited a Spanish speaking country. I can definitely say that I have learned more with one course of Rocket Spanish than I did taking two courses in high school.

I love the weekly email to help you on your course. This is not a program where you pay your money and you are left hanging out to dry. As with any program, you get out of it what you put into it, but Rocket Spanish makes it fun for you to spend time in its programing.

I would strongly recommend the Rocket Languages Spanish course. The Interactive Audio lessons in particular are very useful, they cover interesting and relevant topics. The gradual increase in difficulty of the lessons as the course goes on meant that I had the feeling of making good solid progress, neither too slow nor too rushed. The other aspects of the course, such as the Language and Culture modules and the Rocket Record function, complement well the Interactive Audio lessons.

Much better than Rosetta Stone. The practice things on-line really make me feel like I know the material. Downloading the lessons and listening to them (and talking back) works great in the car. You need to repeat them until they make sense. I paid the cheep price so I don't have written materials with the course, but it's not holding me back at all. I just had to google the things they say are part of the written materials, like the alphabet.

Last spring I took a Level 1 German course at a local community college. I purchased Rocket Languages- German to help me hold onto what I had learned and to extend my learning. It is fabulous! I especially like that I can record myself and then playback the tutor followed immediately by me. This particular feature is far more helpful than a classroom. I just finished my first series of lessons and have "rocketed" to the second series. Great job Rocket Languages!! This 60 year old learner is greatly impressed!

I have just completed the trial and, although it is a shame that more advanced Portuguese lessons will not be available any time soon (if at all), I am going to buy the full access anyway. It seems good value for money, but I think I will finish the full course content quite quickly and probably still not be that fluent.

I really like the content of the courses. Everything is done so you can learn only needed things!
The fact that you can work all the aspect (audio, writing, speaking) of a language is an amazing plus for people who want to learn faster and better :)
I recommend!

this program sucks, its not even functional and makes you restart whole lessons because it cant even save your answers. DO NOT BUY IT!!!!! Use something else, its loading times are horrible. The content is good but you cant even load the page and save your answers so theirs no use in the content!!!!! :(
