Rocket Languages Reviews
Find out what actual users have to say about our courses through their Rocket Languages reviews.
After checking out online and offline products I chose rocket after trying the free test. Rocket languages is excellent for me as an absolute beginner. It allows me to proceed at may own pace and to check my own progress. The combination of spoken modules and text (conversation guide etc) is very useful. The voice recorder is excellent. I use it on my desktop pc but also frequently on my mobile when I have time on the road.
Shame on you Rocket Languages!
There has been some improvement but your system still keeps freezing, not transmitting your words and not recording mine. The little bars that wiggle and show the microphone is live freeze, i.e. stop wiggling, on almost every attempt. My playback does once again contain many more words than you are recording. Why?
I have been trying to work through 11.1 at the Doctor’s and 11.2 Making a Complaint. If you were a person and not a robot you would understand the humour in that last one.
Is it because you are a robot that you never answer my questions? You just let some time go by then tell me it’s all fixed when it isn’t. This is not online help - it’s a farce.
I do believe that you have some marvellous learning material but you are completely let down by the technical side and your lackadaisical customer service. Once upon a time you had some good lessons that I could access. Now I believe I cannot learn anything and my French speaking is actually getting worse as a result of having to keep endlessly repeating myself and hurrying before you cut me off. Your system is all up the creek and you can’t fix it.

Response from Rocket Languages: Hi Linda - I am sorry to hear about your frustrations. The recording and playback functions have been considerably improved. If you are still experiencing problems then please contact customer support again. We are endeavoring to provide meaningful resolutions within 2 working days. We will try to set up a Skype call to get to the bottom of your issues.
There is no functionality to allow you to quickly click on a word that you don't know to figure out what it means. Instead you have to wait through the painstakingly slow audio to hear someone tell you what it means. Very frustrating, especially if you're like me and learn better through seeing.

Response from Rocket Languages: Hi Michael - I am not sure what you mean here as every word/phrase in Rocket Chinese has the Hanzi, Pinyin, English translation and the literal translation. We have also recently added subtitles to the Interactive Audio course tracks to make following them much easier!
I've been struggling to find the time to learn Italian for ages, then with a trip planned, I needed to learn it faster. Rocket Italian has been great for just that; my conversational Italian has improved enormously and with the culture and explanation sections i now understand how the language works much better!
This course is fabulous, I have tried several other courses before. I even tried HSK, but none of then helped me out as Rocket language. I work every day on the computer so it was difficult for me to get back on the computer for my Chinese courses. But with Rocket language I am able to stick to my plan. The content is great and it does not bore you down, it makes you to keep going and moving to the next lessons. I recomend this course to any body who realy wants to learn real life every day Chinese communication, to adquire the language.
I whish I have had known about this course a year ago.
Thanks Rocket Language.
im currently working in this website but for now i need understand more about the site
I bought Rocket Languages to learn Italian. I have found it an excellent resource especially with the microphone and pronunciation rating. With my Aussie accent the program makes me more aware of the way I need to speak for a 100% score on my speech.
The program is extensive and now that I am back from my Italian Holiday I look forward to learning more ready for next years trip. I love ❤️
The product is not working and is confusing. The price is okay but some parts are working fine and others are the most horrible thing that is possible is that the "Play it part" is not working and is not compatible my computer and that is causing problems with the learning experience. I would not recommend it to a friend especially with quality headphknes

Response from Rocket Languages: Hi Teertho - Looks like we had a bug. Should be fixed now!
I love Rocket Languages because it takes you step by step in learning any language even though you don't speak it at all. The teachers explain everything so clearly that I didn't need any support in the forums (which is a very helpful resource). I recommend Rocket Languages without any doubt.
I bought Rocket Spanish a long while ago and it is truly great. I have been so busy and not too diligent about my lessons so what I REALLY like and appreciate is that I keep getting mails and lessons to encourage me which keeps me from giving up completely. The whole concept is wonderful and you truly learn words from the very first lesson. I have and will always highly recommend Rocket Languages. Thank you for not giving up on me.
