I think that the content is really good and I have enjoyed the level 1 course that I purchased. However, the advertising seems misleading. They promise that you will reach a good conversational level after level 1. However, they do not teach you past tense or future tense. For example, it's pretty hard to have any conversation without learning how to ask "How was your weekend?" or "What did you do yesterday?" Also, after paying, $99 for Level 1, you have to pay an additional $149 for level 2, in which you do start getting into past and future tense (at least you do in the free teaser lesson). If they described the contents of each level better and had a pricing structure that made more sense, I could probably give it a five.

Thanks so much for your review and feedback. Rocket Spanish is a comprehensive course, with a lot of content to cover in order to effectively teach spoken and written Spanish. While we do cover one means of talking about the future in Level 1 (the equivalent of "going to”), more lessons on the future and the past tenses can be found in Level 2, as this fits in with the CEFR level descriptions, since you're only expected to be able to talk about past events and future plans at B1 level. Rocket Spanish Level 1 is equivalent to CEFR levels A1/A2 Rocket Spanish Level 2 is equivalent to CEFR levels A2/B1 Rocket Spanish Level 3 is equivalent to CEFR levels B1/B2 We will email you with a copy of this information, and encourage you to send any questions you might have to our customer support team on [email protected]. All the best with your language learning!
I am just starting Rocket Japanese and so far I quite like it, with one exception so far. I decided to approach learning Japanese methodically and to try to master each concept before moving on. The problem is that in Module 1, there is a section on numbers, and it teaches numbers from 1 to 100,000,000. Obviously, there are patterns and generalizations one can make across the 10s, 100s, 1000s, etc, but there is a lot to learn here in one large gulp and now I have lost my momentum with the language learning. I feel the numbers should be introduced in smaller chunks so that one can progress with new vocabulary and grammar at the same time. I have been bogged down with number learning for days.

Hi Laura, thank you for your review. We're sorry to hear that you've lost momentum. Learning a new language is a huge undertaking, especially a language with a completely different writing system like Japanese. The Level 1 course is aligned with the JLPT, meaning we are teaching the number basics including 百 and 万 in this level. We've kept the lesson light, with less than 50 phrases in the testing section. The numbers lessons for Levels 2 and 3 deal with more advanced concepts like counters. We've emailed you with some helpful tips for learning a new language which we hope will help you get the most out of your course. All the best!
At least at beginning the Rocket has motivated me
