Rocket Spanish is a great way to learn Spanish. It has helped me very much when moving to a foreign country. The classes keep you very engaged and willing to learn more. using listening, reading and writing combined seems to work best to learn.
So far it is a great program. A lot of good exercises, and I like that you record yourself and can listen back. I can't wait to get more lessons finished.
I have tried a few other online program for learning Spanish, they were ok but there were always something missing , until I have learned about Rocket Spanish in one of the YouTube travel channel and I start using it , it works perfectly for me , it is very organized and easy to follow each lessen and courses . I would recommend it to all beginner like myself who wants to start from zero . it explain very well and each lessen takes half an hour to one hour only ,you can install the app on multiple devices and learn Spanish where and whenever you can , I use it even when I'm in the bus from home to work . RECOMMENDED
It's very interactive and easy to understand, though the initial directions were a little confusing--but only a little. Pronunciation is exact and (so far) easy to imitate. I wait until your speaker has finished so I can more accurately hear if I've mimicked him/her. And having the written Italian along with the pronunciation is helpful.
I really like the tool and I that you can record your voice and compared to the native is the best function. I learned quite a lot of words but there is one big problem. The man speaks with a Rio De Janeiro accent. When I came to Sao paulo where my wife is from many people laughed at my strong accent and I realized I have gotten a really strong Rio De Janeiro accent which does not seem like the best of accents xD.
I wanted to have a Sao paulo accent and after knowing this fact I could not continue as the portuguese accent was not the one I was looking for. So I love the service but the audio is just not what I am looking for making it not usable.

Hi Niklas - We are aware of the different accents in Brazil and while Paulo is from Rio (as per the Interactive audio lessons), the rest of the course (extra vocabulary and Language & Culture lessons) has a male speaker who is not from Rio. It is a good idea to have familiarity with both! There is even a specific Language & Culture lesson on the differences (see lesson 1.11)
I hate to write this, but the English guide's strange midcentury Boston brahmin accent is so distracting that I cannot hear the Korean being spoken. Aside from the strange English, the phrases used for study are very long and not broken up into memorizable parts, and there is no option to not include the very long and unnecessary "extra vocab" from the audio in the flashcards and other study.
Overall this seems to be teaching canned phrases to be stored in short-term memory, rather than starting out small and forming a true understanding of the language for long-term learning. This might be good if you're visiting Korea for a short period and need to parrot some emergency phrases, but I may have to look elsewhere to actually learn to understand Korean. Pretty disappointed in how much money I spent.

Hi Hannah, I am sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy aspects of Rocket Korean. Did you use the "Play it!" activities? They are designed to get you speaking Korean in conversations. If you turn off the voice recognition then you can "make up" conversations.
Rocket French seems very exciting and it looks fantastic! I am so thrilled that I can say I will now start speaking français! The format of the software seems very organized and I can't wait to start doing some of the great activities, such as the games and speech recognition. I am also looking forward to engaging with the other learners and trying out my new language with them! I am so sure that this program will interest me and hopefully after I complete all the levels of French, I will move on to another language, such as arabic!
The Videos and Games are fantastic tools for learning. I purchased your product for my Grans'. While I have limited use of my right hand, even I am benefiting from your program. "It's Not Complicated" :} Finally!!! I discovered a tool that has all the Bells and Whistles to make learning fun. Thank You!, Rocket Languages. _ EW Jones, TX
Bonjour! Salut! Just getting started and having fun with French, now I need to set aside time each day to work on it and continue to learn. Maybe less Facebook time and more Rocket Language time, but I still need to keep up with my exercise.
