Rocket Languages Reviews

I just signed up and started learning Japanese about a week ago and really love the tutorials. Listening to the pronunciations and then recording and grading how you speak it is brilliant. Wasn't sure I'd be able to learn Japanese, but since I started this it has really made things easier. Immerse yourself as much as you can. It works!!

Compared with the course I was using previously, Rocket Japanese is first rate. The other one gave no grammar info, only said right or wrong (you had to figure out how to correct something that contained an error) and got worse the more advanced you got. I have been using RJ only a few days, but feel that I am progressing much faster. No complaints so far.

Just started, but enjoying it so far! Love how many different things it offers to help you learn and retain the information. I continually go back to review and refresh what I've learned to keep it in my mind at all times. Looking forward to more lessons.

So far it's a great learning technique. I like how the audio mentions other ways that a word could be used or other ways to answer questions. I think it will be a test on how well I've learned once I try to start speaking Spanish to someone else since it's still different than learning via computer and audio lessons. I do like the reading and writing reinforcement since it helps when you see what you're learning to say instead of just repeating words.

I am very pleased with Rocket Italian. After two weeks my vocabulary has increased greatly along with my ability to speak the language. I spoke to a native Italian and they told me that my accent was spot on and I have only got through the first block of lessons in Module 1.

I really like this platform . The only thing is missing is more tests after each subject and lessons. There is a huge gap in quiz. You guys should offer more quiz. other than that Im happy for now.

thanks

Rocket Language is an amazing and innovative way to learn languages. It is different from many other methods because of its interactive way of presenting the language, and specially because of its audio recognition feature. Studying by this method is all you need to get Writing, Listening, Speaking and Reading abilities. I'm very satisfied to have bought the product and I'm willing to discover everything the course can present, since it is very complete and broad.

I've been spending almost half a year in Brazil for 3 years and my language skills are minimal. I moved here permanently and got married two months ago, time to get serious. The two live teachers I've tried just haven't worked out, this looks promising! Looking forward to cracking the language nut!

I was very happy with the program until the new format. The functionality when using an iPad has significantly deteriorated. In particular, I am unhappy with now being unable to replay pronunciation in order to compare with the speaker. My voice recordings are frequently cut off in mid-phrase. Basically, the program is no longer user friendly for people owning iPads. I no longer will recommend this program to my friends. In fact I am traveling to Europe this summer with some friends and I have told them to find another program. We are going to brush up on different languages prior to traveling.

The strengths: - The program is mainly focused on learning useful German from the beginning, familiarising the user with common interactions they might have early on.
- The podcasts are entertaining and stop the learning process from becoming boring.
- Easily recommendable, and from what I have heard from reviews of the product, Rocket Languages seem to care about improvements.

The weaknesses: I might be wrong on this, but I feel that a basic explanation of conjugations comes too late, and at first you are forced to entirely learn new words and not to figure out that a lot of different words are just conjugations of one word. For me, I was already familiar with German so this wasn't a problem. I would then recommend to anyone who is using this product and is completely new to German, to learn about basic sentence structure and conjugations from other sources to aid this course.
