Rocket Languages Reviews

I have been using Duolingo because it's free, but it's not meeting my needs. I like that Rocket Spanish helps with my pronunciation, which Duolingo did not. I had a coupon so I'm willing to give Rocket Spanish a try for 60 days! Plus, I already had the headphones with a mic so why not??

The voice recognition feature is so useless for "Kenny's" in the Japanese lesson. Some of the so easy phrases but couldnt be picked up by the software while it could be for tough, long sentences by Sayaka?

Rocket Spanish and a cup of coffee has been the perfect way to start my day. My favorite feature is "Know It". Support has been very gracious correcting things I'm not sure about. When I travel, I've been using the new iPhone App so that I don't lose any of my skills.

I highly recommend Rocket Spanish as an introductory Spanish course. I'm able to access all prior lessons and review lessons as needed. I like the format -- listening to a practical conversation, breaking down the conversation, repeating back the conversation, (even rating my pronunciation!), spelling out the phrases, and the quiz! This approach truly is the best way for me to learn. Like other reviewers, I have tried other Spanish language online courses, and none have come close to what I have learned so far. I am super satisfied, and I feel this course is well worth the money.

I like the Rocket Chinese Course.
Interestingly, I can only give 5 stars, if I try to click higher than that, it defaults to no stars...
I very much enjoy the energy the instructors have. The level of progress for each lesson is well done. You learn quite a bit with each lesson, and the audio is engaging. But you don't get thrown so far into the deep end that you get frustrated and quit. I is a very good balance between enough old (to prevent frustration) and enough new (to prevent boredom.
I also interacted with the customer service once. It was a very good experience. They took my feedback and incorporated it in the very next update. They also addressed my (user created) problem. They were prompt, and kind, and very helpful.

Rocket Languages gives me the means to practise at any time, anywhere, whether on my computer, mobile or tablet, and this is what makes it different to traditional ways of learning a language.

Even if it is only listening on the bus, or in the car, the ability to take the language with you allows you to immerse yourself in it whenever you want. Added to this are a variety of activities that help you to stay focussed, and keep boredom at bay.

I had spent a year learning German from a book which suited me as a visual learner. BUT, the sounds and ability to speak everything I was learning seemed impossible! Rocket German has been amazing and I am able to move the words from my mind and into my mouth and so speak everything I have learnt in the course so far. The book has become neglected as I feel that I am improving much more with Rocket

I'm a beginner and I'm two months into it at the moment and am very satisfied overall with Rocket Japanese. I've purchased all three levels and the Play the Part product and I believe it's money well spent. The program is comprehensive in content and well-thought out and works well for me as the core of my Japanese language learning. I am supplementing the writing
lessons with other material that involves more paper and pen repetition to help hard-wire hiragana and katana in my brain, and I'll do the same with the kanji. I think Rocket is awesome as it is and realize that no one method can cover every possible base, but I will suggest that Rocket Japanese would be even more effective if it provided links to real world audio or video featuring native speakers, or written material suited to a particular learning level in the program. Otherwise, I'm only on the 3rd Module or Level 1, and have along way to go, but so far so good.

I am 93 years old. This course lets me learn at MY pace.

This is perhaps the best course out there for conversational Italian. I've trialled a few! It teaches whole sentences from typical social situations and still gives you a grounding in grammar. Once you have heard a conversation, the course uses lots of techniques (flash cards, role plays, pronunciation practice) to make sure you retain it and it works! There is a good emphasis on holiday scenarios which is exactly what I wanted. I bought Level 1 using a discount voucher (google around) and £50 (after VAT) felt like good value for the amount and quality of content. The back and forth between the presenters is entertaining and Rocket Languages has managed to make learning fun.
