Rocket Languages review criteria
I have been working with this language course for only four weeks - my assessment is therefore very preliminary.
My impressions thus far: the course could be more interactive (more dialogs with voice recordings); I'm missing a periodic vocabulary refresher. A dynamically updated glossary of important phrases should be included. Dialogs with more than two speakers are desirable; for example, short street interviews with real people would make the course fun.

Hi Rein, thank you for your review. We are always trying to make the course better and are thankful for your feedback. Your feedback has been passed on to the development team and will be looked at closely. All the best!
I really like Rocket Japanese! The lessons are fun and you can listen to them over and over. I have printed many of them out so I can study them when I'm not at my computer. I have also memorized a lot of the conversations.
Rocket Languages has put a lot of work into their website. They have a lot of tools to help you monitor your progress. The lesson-rating system gives you a good overview, there are lots of tests to evaluate how well you know the lessons, there are motivational articles and forums. And it's available wherever you are!
Very Good. Very Helpful. I studied, and learned the German Language ( Deutche Sprache) in 1992, when I was living in Germany until 1998. Now I am Living in USA, since 1998 to date 01/2019. I have forgotten the language a little, as I have nobody to speak in German language. Now, I have developed my knowledge of German as a result of follow up the Rocket Language website.
Thanks
I am a beginner and have only taken a couple of lessons but I found the experience enjoyable (1.1 and 1.2). Very easy to follow along with the speakers. That plus the great discount price made me jump to purchase the first level premium. I would certainly recommend to anyone who wants to learn Japanese.
The course is effective and I am making progress, but the voice recognition software is very glitchy and inconsistent.

It's great to hear that you are making progress through the course, Patrick. We have contacted you via email to try and assist you with the voice recognition issues you are experiencing. All the best!
Rocket Spanish is great. It helped me significantly on my trip to Spain. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wishes to travel to a Spanish speaking country or just wishes to improve conversational skills. Easy to use.
Early days, but I'm very happy with is so far. Only issue that I've found thus far is comms between the App and my wireless head-set when using Edge. There's a lilttle improvement when using Chrome.
Best to use a wired USB head-set.
I can see this App fully replacing my Babble and DuoLingo Apps.

As an English language instructor, I find the Rocket Korean course is pretty good but not perfect on its own. However, given the price tag, it's worth the shot. I would prefer that instead of text that the software be more interactive. Through the use of visuals such as pictures and videos it allows students to learn more intuitively and recall prior knowledge on the spot. Text support, while necessary to a degree, can become a crutch that visual learners like myself can overly rely on causing less temporal tension and thus leading us to less overall retention. However, of course, this course is good for the price and I have been using it in coordination with a few other applications online. Therefore, I suggest using this in conjunction with other programs as well as considering language exchange to get much needed practice in real time.
I had a great time learning Japanese and I've only been using it for 2 hours! It's easy to learn, and there is no stress of fast paced learning, just steady learning. I love it and I will probably suggest it to a friend.
So far my experience with Rocket has been very positive. Being able to remember even half of what I learned a couple days ago shocked me. Most languages I have attempted to learn result in me forgetting over 90% of the vocabulary I have learned after a short period of time. This method of learning seems to make me naturally think and respond in the native language so that I can form connections and remember core phrases in the long term.
