Rocket Japanese gave me the opportunity to learn Japanese in the comfort of my own home and in my own pace. The lessons are so user friendly that you always feel confident of your progress after each lesson. 10/10 Rating experience! Would recommend Rocket Languages to anyone.

Fantastic support and service! Very useful and even addictive! The courses are well organised and structured nicely. The revision is so well planned and I find myself easily picking up new words. Can't wait for future games in Korean and more content to continue my studies.

Rocket German is a great course with improvements all the time being made to make it a greater experience and fun way to learn. I'm now speaking more sentences than ever. What I like is also the dedication of the Rocket Team with their willingness to help when you have problems. The forum is a great place to be when you are stuck on something. You can almost get an answer straight away because their are people like Byron and others very quick to help. Bless Them! You can buy all the expensive software if you want but you don't get the personal touch like you do with Rocket Languages. I recommend Rocket languages to anyone that reads this review. It's like having your own tutor without taking classes.

Living in regional Australia, I am unable to undertake formal Russian language studies, but this is the next best thing. It manages to cover all the essential language skills which is something I haven't found in a lot of self-directed courses. Self-directed teaching means my speaking and listening skills need extra attention to ensure I am always progressing.

My favourite feature is being able to compare my own voice to that of a native speaker—it has helped my spoken Russian immensely. As an ESL tutor, another feature I love is "language chunking". It makes forming new sentences easier, and I can speak phrases with a more natural flow.

Almost Great
The organization of material, and its presentation are great. There is one technical flaw, however, and it is major, and inexcusable in this very expensive app. In neither the Lesson or the Conversation can you stop or go back to something that you are not sure of. In learning a language, there are ALWAYS situations where something specific is not clear and you need to confirm or correct what you just heard. It’s amazing that you in order to find that specific thing you need to double check, you have to finish the entire lesson or entire conversation, go back to the very beginning and listen to the entire thing again! That is a MAJOR technical flaw, and I am amazed that, although it has been mentioned by other reviews, it hasn’t been fixed. If that were fixed, this would be a 5 star app, now it’s only a 3 star app.

The interactive audio lessons are so fun, non-stressful, and easy to use. I love the feature that allows me to input translations just by highlighting the words in the conversation and then test myself by going through it on my own. I download the lessons I'm working on and listen to them in the car or at work. I've already recommended Rocket Languages to most of my family and friends! Rocket Languages is nearly perfect but one thing I'd like to see at some point is more audio reviews with different uses of the words from the lesson and a review covering literally everything up to the present point. So if I'm at lesson 1.3, i'd like to see a review covering 1.0-1.3 on it. Or if I'm at lesson 3.2, I'd like to review 1.0-3.2 at some point to make sure I haven't forgotten the basics.

I chose to take an online Spanish class after moving from Cleveland to Little Havana in Miami, FL. This course has been the perfect compliment to language immersion! I feel like I learn something on Rocket Spanish, and then I am immediately using it to communicate with my neighbors. Rocket Spanish has taught me so much already, and I have enjoyed the process so much. I am about halfway done with the course, and can't wait to see my fluency increase in the second half!
If Mauricio and Amy, the creators of Rocket Spanish see this-- thank you! You're very charming and engaging, and it has helped me learn Spanish.

This is an amazing program! I had tried Pimsleur and Fluenz when learning Spanish. Rocket simply blows those away. And with the iPhone app and mp3 recordings you can practice anywhere. Enjoy learning your new language!

The record with voice recognition grading really helps to get your pronunciation right, and the playback of your voice really helps you find out why you did get the grade you expected. These tools give a strong incentive to practice speaking, and have helped me to progress faster. The downside is that these tools are only practically useful on PC and not useful on Android because of speed and different limited web page. (I cannot speak for Apple versions).

I would give the course 5 stars if all features were available on all platforms.

On android viewing the website, speech recognition is so much slower to respond, and much less accurate, so the time delays become frustrating - it is very dependent on internet and wireless speed. The key thing android misses is it that it has no ability to play back what you said (so that you can hear and correct your own mistakes). From the forum comments this appears to have been missing for 2 years or more, and I think Rocket Languages should make playback of your own voice a priority fix for android users.

it is OK with rocket Hindi langue. But it is limited . i.e., There are explaining some basics with good understanding. we will learn all the basic words, but if we stick to those words, we can manage Hindi, but we cant speak Hindi like native speaker.
we still have to learn other content and practice alot apart from the rocket Hindi material.

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Chalapathi - As of 2019, the Rocket Hindi Language & Culture lessons have been fully rewritten and updated. Hindi can be a tricky language as there is no set way to teach it, however we think we have cracked it!
