I would like to see information on Korean numbers, both native Korean and sino-Korean, and when it is proper to use each one. I've lived in the ROK twice and always used native Korean numbers for everything. I did not realize there was a second set of numbers.
I am enjoying the course a lot. I like the systematic way the material is delivered with plenty of practice examples and opportunity to repeat it as much as one likes.
The audio facility is excellent.
The only reason I am not there every day is too many other commitments.
Customer service very good but can take a bit too long.
Many thanks

I have the German course from long time and I always have problems to start. Now, with the voice reconition I'm in love with it and buy the Premiun of the Frensh too.
Now every day I take some time to do the two courses and it makes me more anda more confident with the results.
Great program to get started if you do not know Japanese at all. Good for beginner to intermediate. I haven't utilized the site long enough to see all the resources it has, but i do think it is convenient that it has an app that operates the same way as the site on a PC.
Definitely better than Rosetta Stone, Designs are nice and everything is crisp. Might actually be easier to use too! Overall I would give this program a solid 4/5 and Rosetta a 3.5/5. Thumbs up to Rocket Languages!
I´m very pleased with Rocket French. I love the extras like the pronunciation. I have a hard time with some of the words and the fact that I can record myself is very helpful. The ability to print the lesson is also a big plus. I´m very happy with it.
Mi idioma nativo es español, mi opinion personal para este programa es que sea realizado de una forma mas entendible para el alumno, me refiero a que si estas escuchando una conversacion, seria bueno a la vez ver como se escribe lo que estas escuchando. Una video conferencia seria cinco estrellas. gracias.
Really do like the flashcards and the testing methodology for Rocket French...everyone needs to know about this great product...the price is very fair...would like to see a Rocket French level 4 with discussions/dialogues on the EU, foreign immigration, lots on economic subjects, geopolitical, anatomy and physiology of the human body...so far, very impressed with this course...thanks, Rocket French!!!!
I've been using Rocket Italian since December 2019. I purchased Levels 1, 2, & 3-Instant Lifetime Access and the Travelogue. (Yes, I am committed to learn Italian.) I am on Unit I- module 6. In addition to Rocket, I use 2 other Apps/programs along with Rocket Italian. After 3/12 months of use, I feel I can write an accurate review.
Pros
1. I love the structured lessons
2. Like having the audios of Alex and Maria (audio lessons and reviews)
3. Like having the ability to record myself and mimic pronunciation
Cons (or possible areas to improve)
1. I wish there was a way to manipulate and build sentences rather than solely memorizing. (Maybe this happens in later units, I don't know.)
2. I wish that in lessons, such as in Language and Culture, where they may be over 90 terms to learn, that the lesson be divided in smaller lessons. Memorizing close to 100 terms is overwhelming and a big challenge. Maybe limiting the terms to a more manageable number would be beneficial to the learner.
3. I wish there was a method to answer questions on a lesson directly on the lesson page itself rather than on the forum. Also, I would appreciate if someone from Rocket could answer those questions rather than relying mostly other learners.

Response from Rocket Languages
Thanks for the detailed review Laura! I thought that I would comment on the cons; 1. Play it! is the best tool for this at the moment. We are looking into other tools to achieve this. 2. Rocket Italian is due for a total review later this year. At that stage the amount of phrases per lesson will be addressed. We know it's an issue and have been working at how to make it less of a slog yet maintain the comprehensiveness. 3. Great idea. I will look into this. 4. We used to have this as an extra paid feature but it was difficult to manage as it requires a lot more human resources to be able to do it.
THAT ROCKET LANGUAGE TOOLS OR NICHE IS SOMETHING SPECTACULAR AND VERY GOOD
