Rocket Arabic

Listening to the audio lessons is very boring. You hear someone saying something in Arabic, and then they tell you what it is in english with a little bit of filler and sometimes a lame joke. There's too much english speaking in between the arabic, and after listening to it I don't recall anything from it. I then started doing some of the other activities and they're all very basic. This is much less advanced than Rosetta Stone. Rosetta Stone doesn't choose the most useful phrases to teach you when you start off, but at least it reinforces what you are learning in an easy way to pick up the language without a lot of filler talk in the language you already speak (english in my case). It's hard to motivate myself to listen to more of these Rocket Arabic lessons because they are so boring.

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Robert - We have added in a ton more standalone words and phrases that can be used with voice recognition. As well as that we have revamped the Language & Culture lessons.

I studied some German in high school 55 years ago. I've tried several other well known and well advertised and more expensive language courses in the past, but I am most impressed with Rocket for it’s pacing and through attention to understanding the context in real life situations. I've been using it for a week and look forward to each days lesson.

Once you get started the Rocket course is fun and the learning experience is great. From the very first lesson you learn that you can learn and it actually makes you feel like you can do it. The different ways to practice also "force" you to try. I also like that the lessons are short and we always review what we have learned in the previous lesson. I just need to remain committed and I think I will make good progress. It also helps to see the points add up the more you practice.

Really enjoyed using rocket Spanish so far and feel I have learn much more quicker than anything else I have worked with.
The lessons are easier to follow and the information in the PDF I was sent really helped set me up for proactive learning.

Rocket French is absolutely the best online language learning programme that I have ever tried in my life. Comparing with Rosetta Stone or Pimsleur's French products, I think this is more comprehensive, interactive and interesting as the hosts of Rocket French introduce you to French language and culture with detailed explanations. As for the games provided, I enjoy playing them a lot and they certainly help me develop my four skills (Reading, writing, listening and speaking) in French language!

I will recommend Rocket French to all of my friends. Also, I do look forward to seeing the enrichment of teaching materials here :)

Couldn't imagine it is that easy to learn new language, Rocket languages really knows how to make difficult languages to become easy to learn, I am sure if I spend more time I will know how to speak Spanish very good, thank you so much.

Rocket Languages uses a variety of approaches, including listening, speaking, reading and writing - and above all, REPETITION, which really helps me learn. I also like the combination of "learn by hearing" and specific grammar instruction. The only thing that would make it better is if it had videos.

Having decided to learn Portuguese to impress and become more involved with my Brazilian friends, I chose Rocket languages. It's great! It's Brazilian Portuguese, so exactly what I wanted, and it is so easy to use either on my laptop at home or tablet during lunch at work.

I've tried a little with my friends and they've commented on my good pronunciation - all thanks to Rocket Languages. The way the language is introduced is intuitive and it sticks. Being able to record and listen back to your attempts really helps to improve pronunciation and help to retain vocabulary.

I'm not at the point where I can hold a conversation yet, but given time and Rocket Languages excellent approach I believe I'll be meeting my friends expectations now that they now I'm learning.

Muito obrigado, Rocket Languages. Your product works and I thoroughly recommend it.

I've only been using Rocket French for an hour but already I've so much! I feel as if I could talk to a fluent French speaker and understand them and communicate right back. The program gives you so many options as to how to learn, and doing all of them (since they are included!) is the best way possible!

Rocket languages supply "Translation method" for learning 2nd Languages . It's the same as in the school. There worse has no photos to understand by view , no stroke order .
Too many lessons for beginners .

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Bubill - Did you see the Writing lessons? There are videos in each of those showing you how to draw different characters, with the correct stroke order!
