Rocket Languages Reviews

Good review of basics and builds on it for more advanced learning. Only been at it for a week, but excited to see what I will learn more. Some of the audio does not match with what I say. I double check with Google Translate and it doesn't not work( Première, Deuxième, Troisième, etc), However based on reviews that I read, it seems to have gotten better!

This is such an incredible learning resource for all those looking to learn any language, not just Japanese! I'm growing more confident with every lesson I take and I am really enjoying learning! This is definitely a course that I will buy again - perhaps even recommend it to a friend, too!

SO AWESOME!!! would ABSOLUTELY recommend to friends and family (and just about everyone)!! Is quite expensive (the owners are probably really stretching the price from what it needs to be) but honestly it's worth it!! FOR SURE would recomment- its worth the price because its like textbooks and training and homework and a teacher and a tutor all in one!!! Absolutely a must-have if you're starting a new language (or struggling with one you're trying to learn).

It took me quite a long time to decide to take the plunge and buy a language course. Ive only ever tried free apps like Duolingo which is also a good program. But i can tell you Rocket Italian so far has exceeded my expectation. I have just finished the first section. I have become quite addicted to the program. The numerous forms of self testing really does help it stick. Im not perfect and I did have to rerun the last two sessions three times for it to stick but believe me. Doing this has helped me a lot better than any of the free apps I have used. Long may it continue as I progress through the lessons. I agree with comments about the fact that some times quite rarely the recording went odd. Bit a quick stop and replay solves this. It doesnt happen often.
In short Im loving it at the moment. Not sure about when it gets harder though. Give it a go!!

I am very pleased. I have barely gotten started, but so far it exceeds expectations. I especially like the structure of the lessons. It strikes a good balance of listening, speaking, spelling, and grammar. Es ist sehr gut!

This is the 2nd time I buy this course , first time every thing work perfect, but now I cannot do any exercises because the microphone do not find the learning material. I have tried many solutions but nothing works. What am I suposed to do ?. I see on the Internet that I am not alone facing theese problems. I am not happy with this . Have a nice day.

I’ve tried one other Italian course and could repeat the sound ok only to learn later that how it came out wasn’t accurate. Seeing then writing really helps. Unfortunately I’ve just started rocket and timing hasn’t been good. I’m looking forward to soon having more free time to actually devote to this. So this request for a review came pretty early.

UMMMMM FIRST OF ALL IT WON'T LET ME DO OTHER LESSONS BECAUSE I'M JUST DOING THE FREE PART - IT ADVERTISES THAT IT'S FREE - A COMPLETE TRICK!!!! OUTRAGEOUS! IT DOESN'T TEACH YOU PROPERLY - IT TELLS YOU TO REPEAT THE STATEMENT/QUESTION AND THAT'S IT!!! NOTHING ELSE! I AM VERY UNSATISFIED WITH THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE AND WOULD RECOMMEND NOT LEARNING FRENCH FROM THIS HORRIBLE WEBSITE - I WOULD SUGGEST NOT EVEN LOOKING AT THIS WEBSITE!!! A SCAM, I TELL YOU!

Unfortunately I am one of the Rocket Languages failures. I spent my first few months doing what I believed the course asked me to do -- one lesson per day with extra study. After 4 months I had finished the first level of Spanish. I could say hello to folks, order a simple meal in a restaurant -- check in to a hotel, etc., but when I met with my Spanish speaking friends I could not understand what they were saying . So following the recommended learning path was not working for me.

I also noted that the course admins reward points as an indication of learning. Yet, in my case, I could not see any relationship between points and my knowledge of the material. Also a glaring weakness is that one can earn points by repeatedly answering the same questions. I found that I was memorizing the answers to all of the questions. I then thought if I could present the materials to myself in a different way, I could learn the materials better. I began pulling down many of the lessons at one time -- taking them into a little program I developed that would then present the material to me in various ways. My hope in doing this is that by so doing, I would more effectively learn the materials.
