Rocket Languages review criteria
I am 82 years of age.I retired from medicine (family practitioner) some two years ago. My paternal grandparents emigrated from Germany and settled on the land about the middle of last century.
I followed my father on the original land my Grandfather selected. at age 30 I felt the urge to study medicine.I did my matriculation studies by correspondence as well work the farm. I matriculated aged 40 and spent 40 tears as a medico. I mention the above for 2 reasons. firstly with our knowledge of neuroplasticity we now know age is no bar to learning new information. Secondly found my correspondence studies extremely helpful. I was able to study when most convenient as well carry out full time farming. That is why I find your course so wonderful. I can pace my studies. It is good for my brain! and I don't have to attend university and it gives me an affinity with my forebears! I highly recommend you course and gives me great pleasure to do so
Having used on-line language products previously, I was prepared for a slow progression in the learning process. The Rocket course proved to be much easier to utilize. You can easily see how each lesson builds from the previous one. It is easy to begin to translate phrases that are yet to be presented in the course material. The explanations given by the presenters are excellent and easy to understand. I am very pleased with the program!
The course content is great, the design, layout and structure of the course is great. A lot of content, gets you to a good level of language ability if you study it correctly. The price is very high when you consider all of the free resources available though. I use the high price as a motivation to study, so that I'm not wasting my money, but it must dissuade so many others.
This program presented in an easy to use way at your own schedule. There is a lot of repetition to help perfect pronunciation and learn vocabulary. It gives you a lot of confidence to learn a new language
I'm very new to Rocket (only a few lessons in). I love the idea, and almost all the execution, think it's a great design - well-organized, relevant conversational topics, practical for likely real-life situations, and there's lots of opportunity to practice (recording, writing, quizzes, etc).
Overall happy!
I have to say though that having to listen to one of the 2 two teachers for the course speak Italian with a really strong American accent is super-annoying. I don't want to hear that, it's not helpful. (I have a hard time imagining what Rocket could have even been thinking there...)
All that said, I'm still glad to have it. I'm going to Rome in 4 mo for the first time, and I feel like this will give me a great foundation for very basic interactions, which always feels good.
Response from Rocket Languages
Thanks so much for your review and feedback - it's much appreciated. We wanted to let you know that our level 2 and 3 courses, plus the Travelogue lessons, include only native speakers speaking Italian. We are hoping to update Level 1 at some point, as well, with a native speaker. I hope that helps. Have a great trip to Rome!
Saudações,
Meus estudos da língua alemã com o pessoal da Rocket Languages foi a solução e o método que encontrei para contornar um problema pessoal que ocorria frequentemente comigo, pois a confusão da língua alemã com a língua inglesa me era bastante frequente. Assim, optei por estudar alemão lançando mão de traduções e explicações justamente em inglês. Ajudou-me um bom tanto e tem sido bem eficiente para reduzir, e em alguns aspectos até eliminar, as confusões que eu comumente fazia.
Grato a todos.
Marcos.
It's just awesome, so easy to learn at your own pace, at your own place. The voices are perfect, clean and warm, which I like the most. Everything that you need to know is explained in detail, and every word is recorded that you can hear it again, many times you want, just wonderful. Warmest recommendations!
I'm really happy with the way Rocket Chinese structures the lessons with lots of repetition. I also look forward to Rocket review after each lesson! I can definitely say I'm having fun learning Chinese.
I love the combination of listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Being able to interact with the same words and phrases many times, and in many different ways, helps increase my familiarity and my retention of the words. My confidence has skyrocketed, and I truly believe I will be able to communicate when I travel to China!
The speak, record and compare sonograms is so helpful. I appreciate testing format and learn a lot from the testing features. I like the short lessons and testing that can be accomplished within an hour and the ease of knowing where I am in the program.
