Rocket Languages Reviews

Rocket French method is easy and simple but as Italian I can better learn by focusing on the French words that most of the times are similar to Italian ones. Anyhow this rocket French explains and teaches me in English language and in this way I can even learn more English. Therefore I suggest this Rocket Version to the Italians in order that they can learn English and French as well.

This review pertains to Rocket Spanish and the Android APP. The short version is I am very happy with the format and content. My rate of learning has increased significantly since I started using Rocket Spanish. I will discuss the pros below and the several cons that keep this from being a 5 star rating.
After using Doulingo daily for 2 years (almost no missed days!) I am able to read some Spanish and have a fairly good vocabulary but cannot understand spoken spanish or speak Spanish well at all. I knew I needed something more to take it to the next level. After much research I decided on Rocket Spanish.
The pros:
Right away I am speaking Spanish sentences.
I can “hear” Spanish better. This has been the most fun for me because I feel I can understand TV, radio, and regular people (to some extent) so much better.
I love the lesson format. Hear it, say it, write it, know it (memory recall), and then the flash cards. I love the flash cards. The test portion is weak. Not going say it is a con but its 5 easy questions that don’t change if you redo the test.
I get as much help as I want on correctly annunciating the words. This is huge. I love that I can spend as much time as I want on correctly saying the words.

Overall the product is very good for me but I am not a fan of the speaking portion especially those words which has an accent or long sentences, even though I tried to copy the accent of the speaker the application will show 75% but try to speak like a gringo you'll get 100% or if you shout which I believe is not the right way, but having said that spending an hour everyday here helps me improve my vocabulary, also it has some simple information (very helpful) which I don't get to see in my Spanish textbook.

I am also attending Spanish class every week and my new teacher (from Colombia) asked me if I have a tutor, I told her none, then she told me I speak well then I bragged about this website.

The lessons help you learn french systematically and its great to go back to previous lessons and review what you've learned through flashcards and assessments (quiz, know it etc.).. It is my first attempt at learning french and so far it is engaging and motivates me to move through the lessons without giving up. I think this is key when learning a new language which can be highly frustrating. The only thing I could criticize is the voice recognition needs to be improved as it is 80% functional. All in all, great learning experience!

I am enjoying learning Italian for my trip and it seems to make sense so far. Not sure of the customer service because I have not had to use it and cant choose stars based on use so I choose a one star. Sorry, hate fake stat boosting. I can say the search functionality is trash. I tried to search a simple word such as "Tomorrow" and it came up with no results. I have a feeling I will learn much and be happier than I would with Rosetta.

Great course. Has some very interesting pointers and dives into language and culture at the correct speed, without confusion and teaching you just what is necessary. No junk and no confusing rules...etc.

Guys, Rocket Language found a great platform to learn Hindi. I learnt like a baby, very easy and simple way they have to teach their students. Rocket language not only focusing on any one, it focuses reading & writing including speaking. The most important thing would like to share with you is listening, listening is a very grabbing tool for learning any language. To me, it is my ambition to learn Hindi specially writing skills as it is so complex but interesting.
I would appreciate and recommend Rocket Language to learn Hindi and/or any other language.
Good Luck everyone.

The interface is excellent, and the lesson design is excellent. I've tried Rosetta Stone and another program before, and I find Rocket French far better.

The voice recognition, however, is lame. Short words are near impossible. My accent is doubtless awful, but I can mutter a vulgar epithet and get 25%, whereas it will tell me, "Sorry, I didn't get that" on repeat efforts at "gros." This feature sorely needs work.

Rocket Japanese has helped me with my Japanese class in school, and allowed me to catch up because i had fell behind. It is a great system. I highly recommend it to any one wanting to learn Japanese. I'm even having fun with it. Rocket Japanese really can help if you just want to start understanding some anime, because not all of the CC translations are right.

Very happy with course. I’m doing all of it on my phone so website doesn’t reflect my lessons progress.
If I had to mention any one thing that’s been disappointing, it would be that I wish there were more interactive audio. Language and culture sections are good, but I find it difficult to click through them. Practice is Essential!
Overall very please with what I’ve learned to date. Seriously considering buying into next part of course.
Great program!
