Rocket Languages Reviews

I love learning new languages! I can speak conversational German and, to a lesser extent, Croatian.

Recently I was inspired to learn Spanish by a friend and so I spent hours and hours poring over reviews of the various online language learning options. There were so many options out there but nothing really felt like it was "the one" until I came across Rocket Spanish! Now, some people are happy with simply learning how to speak a language by only learning phrases but I'm one of those who really need to understand the grammar behind the phrases and sentences. So, when I came across Rocket Spanish, I was extremely excited to see that, not only will I get to learn to speak the language like a native speaker and in a way that suits my learning style (Visual) but also that the course is packed with quality lessons in grammar.

What really impresses me about Rocket Spanish is the emphasis on repeating words or phrases out loud (not just in my head). This is such an important factor in accelerating one's fluency in a non-native language. After all, if you want to speak a new language, then you really do need to speak it out loud! I only wish that I had come across Rocket when I learned German and Croatian! It would most certainly have saved me countless hours and dollars wasted on ineffective methods.

I have just returned from my first-ever trip to China. For 6 months prior to my trip, the Rocket Chinese course helped me learn basic conversational skills that resulted in many compliments from tour guides, drivers, flight attendants, hotel personnel and other native speakers. I am inspired to continue my studies and return to China someday with a higher command of the language. Rocket Chinese offers very effective tools to achieve this.

I completed Pimsleur Egyptian Arabic Level 1 and attempted some Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) for 2 weeks before going back to focusing on a dialect since nobody speaks MSA. This course is great but to get the most out of it, you have to focus on writing & reading everything (no shortcuts) in Arabic Script as many times as necessary until you don't have to rely on the latin (Franco-Arabic Script). Only then, can you move on to reading Arabic (Egyptian) Press, Books, Graded Readers, song lyrics etc... This program will get you to a solid intermediate!

I waited a couple of months before my review so that I could be completely confident of my experience. I have become hooked on this style of learning, it is just what I was missing. You can hear your recording and compare it with a native speaker and repeat it until you get it right. There is voice recognition software that rates you, but it is sometimes inconsistent. But that is not a major issue to me. Considering you have unlimited time to learn, the price is right. I am starting to do the written test first since spelling helps me with remembering the words used in the other tests. The testing itself is a great teaching tool. Thank you Rocket guys!

Rocket languages really gave me the tools to succeed with my new language. It brought me to a level where I was finally comfortable speaking with native speakers and I was able to take off on my own after that...i love it...Rocket was the only one that combined pronunciation, conversation, reading, writing, and grammar into one solution. So far, I love the way the lessons work...

I have been using Rocket French for the past few months and am on the verge of completing the premium level. Thus far, the course has been absolutely fantastic. It provides an excellent range of activities per lesson that allow you to focus on all aspects of language learning (reading, writing, hearing and pronunciation). Furthermore, it allows you to develop a broad vocabulary and understanding of sentence structure quickly, which in turn allows you to learn French from other media (e.g. movies) more effectively.

In all, I would strongly recommend this product. I have been to French classes before but found them relatively dull and slow-paced. With Rocket French, you can set a pace that is comfortable for you, and that is a significant boon to one's level of engagement. Once I have finished this round of courses, I am planning to invest in another language!

Solid program that keeps you on track to learning a new language, or improving on one you already are familiar with. Easy, daily bites of the language are essential. I especially the like "competitive" nature of the POINTS system, where you can monitor progress against others.

I am learning French. The program is good but far from perfect. There are problems with voice recognition. Level 1, Chapter 5 has a summary test that tests words that have never been introduced. Who proofs this stuff? One new word, 'manquer', translation "miss". What kind of miss? The "stories" are usually 25 minutes long and of little value. Customer support? Virtually nonexistent. During weekday normal hours there is a help desk, when you complain about something she will refer to IT department. IT department has a perfect record of never getting back to me so I quit writing notes to improve the course. The French course is good but could be much better if Rocket had interest in improving.

I absolutely love Rocket Language System. I wish I could be on it more but work prevails most of the time. I love the way the process tests you not only on your memory but also on your enunciation of the language. Many times my intonation is not what it should be and the system catches it. It helps me a lot to improve my communication skills and I also i would like to recommend this site to all my friends.
Thank you Rocket Language!

Thanks for a brilliant work!
Unfortunately, most online courses do not suit for me very well because of my good visual memory.
But you are able to master it! Writing, reading…
Even frightening French pronunciations ... :) - it’s really works!!!!!!
