Rocket Languages Reviews

I have tried many different language programs. They were too boring or expensive. Of the many attempted, only the Rocket program has keep me interested and motivated to make my conversational skills fluent. I plan to take many more courses with this system and would recommend to anyone who wants to learn one of their languages easily and completely. Considering the lifetime access for necessary periodic review, the package cannot be beat by any other language program.

One month into Rocket Italian Level I, the program is providing me with a solid start in learning a new language. The instruction motivates learning and can be fun. The materials are well designed and appear to take into consideration the different types of learning styles we have as students of language. So far so good.

I have been using RI for about 4 months after trying Rosetta stone (very boring) and Pimsleur (good but not quite what I wanted). I found that using RI I have a better comprehension especially when you use the extra lessons where you write and take some tests. Seeing, hearing and writing have made a big difference.

I've been wanting to learn a new language for the longest time and could never really settle on one. I took two years of French in high school but found it wasn't for me and never pursued it further. I've always thought the Japanese language was very beautiful and since I do follow a lot of current trends of Japan as well as being enthralled in the deep cultural history, this made my choice very easy.

At the time of this writing I have completed the first 5 lessons having listened to each lesson multiple times. I generally follow the lesson by scrolling through the conversation text while it is being spoken. Then I'll listen to the lesson on my drive to and from work. On average I listen to each lesson 4 times. The greatest thing about learning is that I actually feel like I'm learning the language. I'm recalling words and phrases and was even able to order myself sushi comfortably.

I have been extremely impressed with the Rocket Japanese course. I do know I have a long way to go but I promise you, that if you put in the effort and time you will succeed at this.

I lived in Germany for a many years well and really didn't put my best foot forward into learning the language and then I had to go to the school and learn it. It was rather difficult because there were many different cultures in the class. Asking the teacher a question became impossible with so many people asking questions in they're native tongue can be overwhelming. I became discouraged and didn't put more into learning.
My job didn't require me to speak Deutsche so why bother, but then I needed it for every day life in order to go shopping going on the transit and so forth. I made another attempt and some of it stuck.

Present day... I'm looking to move back to Deutschland in the near future and I wanted to do allot better...
This time round I wanted to know more than what I had.

I started searching the web for learning schools but that was too pricey and the times were conducive to my job.
So the search went on and I wasn't getting no where.
I went on youtube and did my search and there advert sent me to Rosetta Stone...
The first thing I do is read the reviews and if I don't get a good vibe I move on...
Glad that I did...

Great start with introducing simple useful words and a variety of conversation. Molte bene.
Uno: Reasonable speed to start
Due: Followed by increasing speed to normal speaking dialogue.
Tre: Steps you through with increasing dialogue in a manner easy to follow.
Quattro: Provides pronunciation tips of vowels and double consonants.
Cinque: Keeps up motivation
Sei: Self test requiring typing in the words as heard with proper spelling reinforces auditory and visual learning.

I need to get the microphone connected, but I am sure this feature will also impress and be very helpful.

After just a couple weeks using Rocket Languages I have learned how to start conversations, although carrying on is still a little difficult (practice makes perfect). I highly recommend repeating the first couple lessons until you get them memorized. Rocket Languages has put a lot of great material which helps anyone learn quickly and effectively. I almost gave up on learning Spanish, but once I found Rocket Languages it was a game changer. The usability and interactive audio lessons far outweighs the cost. They made this fully immersive with the 3 major senses of learning; through sight, sound, and speech. All three together make this a solid learning system. Good job Rocket Languages!

I was skeptical to say the least about learning a language at 25 after having to take spanish In high school and not retaining any of it other than to count to 10.
I have had rocket language for 2 days. And it is absolutely blowing my mind. I know 2 days is kind of crazy to post a review but I'm actually excited about this and just had to. I do all the parts of it the flash cards the spelling and the listening part. It seems daunting at first when you listen to a 30 minute audio at the beginning of a lesson and don't take everything in at first. But once you complete 100% activities on each lesson and really put in the effort you can do each lesson in an hour maybe an hour and a half and really walk away from that lesson feeling like you are moving forward. I work construction and a lot of my coworkers and friends on site are latino and just in two days they are surprised by what I have learned. To the point to where 2 of them have downloaded the english versions to start their own path at learning another language. I know I have a long way to go, but I'm so excited to learn this that i don't see myself wanting to slow down! Thank you rocket language and amy and Mauricio, you're making this much easier than expected.

I've taken other media for Italian language classes, including person to person lessons, but none compare to the effectiveness of the Rocket system. Some students learn by seeing, others by hearing and others by doing and feeling (experiencing). Rocket covers all three by showing you examples, having you hear them slowly, then having you write it; finally by "feeling" the culture and the grammar you get a rounded education as language is not just repetition but immersing in the culture. Also, their pace is just right: not too much at a time to overwhelm you - so they are "excellent teachers" and they make sure that different students, with different modes of communication and perception, will definitely assimilate the material. I was a teacher myself so am very critical of teachers in how they can "reach" and "get through to" students by covering different angles: Rocket has definitely figured out a great well-rounded teaching system... I am very happy with it and am learning at a rate that will ensure fluency before I know it. Thank you so much.

Pretty happy with this programme, and I've already recommended it to a few other people who were interested in learning some of the available languages. Having tried other programmes, including "the biggie" in the computer language-learning market, I must say that I like this better.
If I had more available time, I would really like to work on another language, but... !
