Rocket Languages review criteria
I completed all French lessons from the most popular online language learning course. When I finished, I couldn't carry on a conversation. I chatted with another student online who had taken the same classes, and he told me not to become discouraged. He went through the lessons three times before he became comfortable. That shouldn't be necessary. I decided to try Rocket French instead. In a few days, I was able to start speaking simple and useful sentences! This may be a matter of learning style; different people learn differently, but there is no question that Rocket French is better for me. The other learning program is total immersion with no explanations in English. Simple things like "de le" is "du" is something I had to figure out, whereas Rocket French explains that and it's so much easier. There is so much conversational practice in French that I don't feel that I'm missing out by reading explanations in English. I leave for Paris in a few weeks, and I already know so much more than I did a week ago! Today I will complete Module 1 and over the weekend I hope to finish Module 2. Making such quick progress has made me obsessed! By the time I go, I expect to be comfortable ordering food in a restaurant, shopping, and meeting new people in French! Of course I can't become proficient in such a short time, but French people I've spoken with are very patient when we try to learn. Merci beaucoup Rocket French!
In the first lesson, the voice recognition doesn't work. From 53 words, for 1 word gave the feedback.
Response from Rocket Languages
We’re really sorry to hear about the frustration with voice recognition, Alin. That’s not the experience we want for our learners. We’re continuously refining our tools, and your input is important. If you're open to it, please reach out to [email protected] so we can look into what went wrong and try to help.
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 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.
I absolutely love this program. It's up to you to learn. Everything is in this program. You never get bored with all that's offered for the price. Excellent price these folks have truly worked hard to perfect this program. I've been very happy with my progress and the format given by Rocket Languages. I'm so happy I've finally found the right fit for my needs.
Thanks Rocket for this program.
I have tried Rosetta Stone in the past as well as Duolingo and Babbel. I feel that Rocket Languages has been the most beneficial out of all of the ones that I named previously. I really like the amount of content as well as the reinforcement that you get from previous lessons as you go forward. Another great feature is the ability to download the conversations. I have also noticed that as your progress the speed at which they speak increases. This is really nice because it gives you a chance to attune your ears to the language when it is being spoken at a faster speed.
I definitely liked the price point of this program compared to Rosetta Stone. You definitely get more bang for your buck with this program. The amount that I have picked up on in just a couple of weeks has been awesome. Would highly recommend this product!
I have only been using the program for a short time but so far I love it. Compared to other popular language programs I have used, Rocket is the best. The only thing I would like to see added that this program lacks is, reading material. Most of the other programs provide short stories that progress with you as you learn.
I love this system and am using it for my third language. I have used many other methods, including Rosetta Stone, Pimsleur and a two week language course in Italy and found the Rocket programs superior in that the grammar is part of the method, which is essential in becoming fluent in a language. The conversations are believable and typical of what one might need to say while traveling. They also provide a basis for formulating independent ideas for conversing while traveling. Bravo ... Sehr Gut ... Gracias !!!
Excellent training aid. Challenging without becoming boring or monotonous.
Good value product. I am very impressed with how much I have learnt and retained during the course. Often due to other priorities, I have to miss lessons for a couple of weeks or so. However, when I return it takes very little time to get back into the course
We decided to go with Rocket Languages because it got better reviews than the leading language learning software on the market. Once we saw the price was VERY right, we were sold. I didn't immediately see the family discounts and contacted customer service, who promptly answered all my questions and got everyone on board quickly.
I can't say I'll be learning another language in the near future; I'm still trying to master this one. But if I did, I would absolutely use Rocket Languages again and would definitely recommend it to a friend. In fact, I already do recommend it to everyone who asks of me which program they should use to learn a new language!
