Rocket Languages Reviews

I've been searching for quite a while for an online Italian course and everyone single one I've found has been lacking in various areas. Rocket covers all bases of writing, reading, listening and speaking. Having this variation keeps you interested along with all the helpful tips and the gamification using points and streaks.

What would be great is if Rocket could add video to the overall experience. One thing that is always tough when learning a new language from home and not in the country you're learning about, is not being able to picture being there. Seeing Italy through videos and pictures really helps the imagination and inspiration to learn more about the Italian language and culture.

This course works for me because it has a step by step approach that teaches by building on previously taught words and sentences.

I am enjoying the course.

The lessons starts off simple, but surprisingly conversations begin to be possible.
The repetition, speaking, reading and writing exercises all reinforce each other.
The culture lessons are a nice plus.
It is not a magic course, I have to put work into it, but it is well worth the time and effort.

I took Spanish on another website and found I learned words, but not how to speak the language. On Rocket Languages, I am learning how to have real-life conversations. Fantastic learning lessons let me absorb what I need to know. I can't imagine a better way of learning.

Rocket Languages is a wonderful tool for everyone who wants to expand their vocabulary in other languages. I personally have been taking Spanish and like my life motto, "I regret nothing." I would recommend Rocket Languages to anyone who needs to learn a different language for school or for pleasure.

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.

This is how I would love to have been taught French while at school! Although I have continued to study French on and off over the years using books and different online courses, and can just about survive when travelling in France, my main difficulty has been in understanding what is being said to me (I can read French a bit) and suffering from 'brain freeze' whenever asked a question! Rocket French has been a dream come true for me - I decided to start from the very beginning rather than go in at a higher level and I've not only understood some rules for the first time, but it's really helped reinforce what I knew but had forgotten over time! The course is entertaining and engaging, never boring, and is the only online course I've discovered where the level of engagement is so high. You also get the feeling that you really are learning French the way modern day French people speak. There are other online courses which are cheaper, but for the progress I've already made in just a few weeks, Rocket is extremely good value for money. I would really recommend this course to anyone, regardless of the level they are presently at. I wished I'd discovered Rocket earlier!

I've just started the first few lessons and I really like the conversational approach to learning and the additional form of testing that follows. Unlike other learning platforms that I've tried that encourage you to speak, Rocket's approach of using voice recognition makes it into a kind of game where you feel that speaking correctly matters. I also love how you can stand in for one of the speakers in a pseudo-realtime conversation. It feels that one step closer to learning with another person. On the negative side, I find the male teacher to be a bit too 'smily', like he is talking to children. This isn't especially off-putting when we get to the actual conversations and explanations but it doesn't really help with learning. I guess they wanted the male and female teachers to have some kind of rapport with the students but it feels forced.

I was following several Arabic courses at the beginning and found out later that it is just waste of too much time if you do not have a well planned track for learning. Specially when I go through the rocket trial, I found that they way they deliver the course is best among I came across. It practices us to use the language instead of putting us on the difficult grammar and the science of the language. I believe directly diving in to the language will help us absorb, love and learn the language easily. I am on first module now. Hope it would help me to achieve a certain standard.

This is the most FUN and In-depth course that I have ever taken. I actually know that with this, I will achieve my dream of being able to speak Spanish, and understand this fascinating language. Con muchas gracias, Daryl

After trying to find a "base" program to center myself around learning Spanish, I've found it with Rocket Languages. This program contains useful conversations that you WILL use when traveling or living in a Spanish speaking country. Not only that, but it furthers your education by many forms of reinforcement. After listening to the lessons, it is very wise to keep going with the supplementary features that are offered. I find myself spending an additional 30 minutes on just the review.

I'll be honest, Rocket Language will not do the work for you, but it will give you a base to center your learning. You get what you put into this; you really do. If you have the desire, and the iron is hot, by all means, start with RL and engage as much as possible.

Aside from this positive review, the purchase is worth it. The material is excellent and gives you the confidence to improve your Spanish even further to a very possible fluent proficiency. I recommend RL al the way to anyone trying to further their Spanish speaking abilities or simply getting started.
