Rocket Languages Reviews

I love Rocket Italian. I had studied Italian on my own for a few years. I am older so I did not learn it quickly, but I had made good progress. I had used Rosetta Stone and college workbooks I had purchased online. But there were definitely things I needed help with. Rocket Italian has helped me with pronunciation, increased my vocabulary, and helped with the proper use of prepositions and certain verbs. Prepositions can be incredibly confusing. This program is filling in all the blanks I needed help with before. I love the humor. I love the explanations of word usage I hadn't gotten before in my studies.
I rated it all 5's. I don't know if I will ever want to learn another language, but if I did, I would buy Rocket Italian. Having said that, I would also use Rosetta Stone again. Rocket Italian was the perfect addition and exactly what I needed. And if I wanted to give a gift to a grandchild who is learning a language, I would buy Rocket Italian. And I would recommend it to a friend.
The price was reasonable I thought. I bought it when it was on sale. I am getting my money's worth.
I have not really used the customer service. I called once. The person was nice.

After looking (and trying) the other well known online learning resource, I decided to try Rocket Spanish. It was an excellent decision. Each lesson is not too long, and that makes it easy to maintain a good pace. I like that they make sure to have me practice the writing and reading parts of the language, not just the conversational aspect. I love the lifetime access, which is something that is not offered by the other online learning resource. All in all, I'm very happy so far with my decision.

Overall Rocket Spanish has been outstanding. I like how they teach Spanish and how they use the previous lessons to build upon the next lesson. I like the review at the end of each lesson to help reinforce what you learned. I also like the fact that the words are shown in the lesson. Seeing how the word is written helps me to pronounce the word correctly.

I wish there was a way to click on additional information within the lessons about certain words and their use such as Estoy vs Soy and Eres vs Estas. I had to Google those words to understand when it is appropriate to use them so that I would understand and remember.

I started using the phone app and playing the lessons through my car speakers as I'm driving. I love having that capability.

When I first started learning Italian, I thought long and hard before purchasing an online learning package. I did a serious amount of research, but kept coming back to the same option. Don't get me wrong there are some really useful free courses/utilities out there, but in my opinion nothing is as comprehensive as Rocket Italian. That said, it's still worthwhile to use other apps/utilities in conjunction with this course. The more you can immerse yourself in your new language the better!

With Rocket Italian, I especially like the way all aspects of learning a new language are taught and consolidated. Using different written, spoken, listening and flashcard testing. If you're true to yourself when learning, and don't cheat, the tools provided are excellent. It's also a good idea to go back and repeat lesson's on a regular basis to confirm that you're remembering what you've been taught.

On top of that I think Rocket Italian is competitively priced and you get quite a bit for your money. With all said though, you'll only get your moneys worth if you're willing to stick at it and put the effort in to learning your chosen language.

I have enjoyed Rocket Spanish. The lessons are excellent to listen to and I feel like I am understanding the Spanish language much better.
Rocket Spanish has been a good investment to help me learn Spanish.

Purchased the Spanish language and find it very straightforward. Takes you through step-by-step and it's fairly interactive too. Lots of opportunities to test yourself and you can go at your own pace.

Rocket Spanish is quite engaging. It has a good mix of verbal, written and listening practice, addressing different learning styles. The balance between speaking and learning the grammar is excellent. Amy and Mauricio are excellent Spanish mentors whose voices are pleasant, easy to listen to and encouraging.

I am really enjoying learning Italian with Rocket Languages. I look forward to my lessons and try to catch up with a lesson or two most days. We are planning a trip to Italy soon and I think my Italian language skills will be greatly improved by the time we arrive there.

I am loving Rocket Languages so far! Its very well rounded, from speaking to listening, writing and reading. Its very organized and I can sense that my learning will go very far.

It is good so far. Just have to be consistent and diligent with my progress.
