Rocket Languages Reviews

Well, I'm kind of struggling on how to write the words, but other than that, I love it. :]

good course. easy to learn and understand. the record system is good

I like the way learning is set up. It is nice that there is both a native Chinese speaker and someone else who learned Chinese speaking each phrase. Also, there is both a woman and man speaking the words so that helps with the learning. Once I finish Chinese, I may take on learning Spanish.

Es un curso interesante , se requiere dedicación. Espero sea un curso didáctico que cumpla con las expectativas, de que aprenda a hablar Inglés.

This is great for hearing frequent conversation. Problems with speech recognition are frequently perhaps 50 percent of the time I cannot use voice

so far so good I am really enjoying the conversations and the explanations to it. It's online self taught I think there is still more room to improve the real dialogue lessons to practice pronunciation correctly. A more testing tool like exercises would also improve learners evaluation of grasping the concepts.

I think the Rocket format is a solid tool for learning - especially for beginners. Each lesson is a conversation between two people that you study and use to learn vocabulary and grammar. I always enjoyed that the format gave me little "stories" I could grab on to as memory aids. It really gave me a great start.

As my enthusiasm waned, as it always will when learning something new and moving past the beginner phase, I found that the rocket format started to bog me down a little. Some lessons would have over 60 phrases to practice and memorize. I'd get bogged down trying to get through the homework. I felt my learning speed was slowing down as I entered Level 2 of the course, and I began to turn to other tools like "Spanish Dict (spanishdict.com)" to augment the material and speed me up.

I think the course could be improved drastically in three ways.

1) Shorten Lessons. People like to move through lessons quickly. It produces a sense of accomplishment. This means, reducing the number of phrases to be mastered in each lesson.

2) Enhance Memorization Tools. There are well known systems for reviewing words and the idea of building a deck of flashcards you can continuously review is missing from the toolkit of Rocket Spanish.

Rocket Italian is great to learn a new language. I completed the very first module and even only finishing the first module helped drastically in terms of my Italian. The reciting activities and reviewing features in each lesson helped me recognise and remember the older vocabularies I learnt. My pronunciation improved although I am still working on rolling my 'r' pronunciation.

rocket spanish has helped me learn a lot thank you very much
