Rocket Languages Reviews

I like how we need to learn to collect points. It actually give me more fighting spirit to learn it better in order to collect points and also be more motivated than ever to learn this new language. If I am done learning this language, it is most probably that I will go for the next one, and the next one!!! Love Love Love this program!!

As a youngster could only speak German. Had to learn English in grade school. Now 60 some years later can hardly recall any German. Am enjoying reliving my youth by going back to my roots and relearning German.
Danke, Rocket Languages

Rocket Spanish is well organized and fairly easy to use. I definitely like the experience and the process. HOWEVER - They are very wishy-washy with the meanings of phrases. In an effort to teach you different phrases to say the same thing, the designers forget that words have meaning. For example, early in the lessons you discuss someone's job. They tell you that the question, "What do you do?" can be asked ?Que haces?, which is correct. Unfortunately, they also tell you that you can say, ?En que trabajas?, which is not correct. That phrase means, "What is your work?". It may sound like I'm knit-picking, bc in the context of the conversation, either phrase will do, but it is confusing when I don't know what you are asking for. In the testing, it asks me to say in Spanish "What do you you?", but it says that I was incorrect bc I responded ?Que haces?. - WHICH IS CORRECT!! The designer of the course wanted me to say ?En que trabajas?. The student isn't a mind reader, and when he/she tries to apply the words learned, it is easy to get confused. Again, words have meaning. It is lazy to say that it is "close enough", when it is in-fact no where near what you are trying to say.

I think this would be the best choice for you guys who wants to learn korean. They have the well structure for the beginner. And now my friend and I are using this learning system together, it helps us to figure out how to pronounce the correct accent in korean.

It's actually useful and good than I thought. I decided to buy Rocket courses according to friend's advice, and I have no regret. I will learn spanish and french with rocket after I will complete english course.

The thing I like most about Rocket Language is that it is audio based so you are actually speaking the language. Unlike other products that use this method it has tons of additional content and the price is not too high.

the incremental approach along with the programmed steps/lessons makes the learning process much easier than deciding on your own what to study and how to study. Also, the repetition of key words/phrases from earlier lessons in subsequent lessons really does solidify the material. I also really like the MegaFrench modules. There is so much variety to the available tools. If you want to hit it hard you can use the dialogue lessons/review/know it; if you want to get exposure without too much effort, you can do the games. Brilliant!

I love learning Spanish and this course is awesome for it! One problem is that I have a hard time finding time to go through an entire audio lesson since they are so long, so I haven't done many of them. Otherwise, it is really nice! The forum is very handy if I have questions. Keep up the good work! Muchas gracias, Shan

Probably would've been helpful if I planned to visit Spain I was look ing for more every day con versation less about the continents / oceans some thing more that woul help full I every day conversations I live&work in a spanish speaking environment and woul of appreciated more phrases I'd say the course as is was n't for me

Some what disappointed:-:

I've been using this course for two years plus now, and that I still continue to use it daily demonstrates that it does a good job of keeping me motivated.

Ultimately, with learning any language, it's good to use as wide selection of different sources, which I still do, and you should definitely do anyway - healthy way to learn.

The strength of this course is that lessons are broken up in a very logical way; lesson length and difficulty is scaled up at a good pace; the desktop and mobile experience content-wise is the same, though presented accordingly; and the tests give you good motivation to go back and improve and correct your mistakes.

Most importantly: there is a feedback option, so if you spot inconsistencies or mistakes you can inquire, and I have found the customer service side of things to be constructive and positive - they certainly tolerate my pedantry!
