So far, the experience is excellent. As I am not a beginner, I am finding the whole process offered by Rocket French to be very good. I especially like the wide variety of exercises, including listening, speaking and writing. I am looking forward to making very good progress.

I have been learning french on and off for years and know a lot of vocab and the basics but was lazy with grammar and sentence structure. I have done a fair few apps and podcasts but Rocket French is the best I have used for building structure in all areas. I love it and would recommend it. It is interestijng , well paced and covers a wide range of topics and phrases.
Areas for improvement - As per a lot of other reviews, I can't use the speach areas on my laptop as it doesn't pick them up well (it's better with headphones but still not great) however it works fine on my phone so I just use that for speach.
Other niggle is that the French pronounciation of the American presenter/ introducer is so awful. The two french role players are understandably great but I'm suprised Rocket French used someone who pronounces so many french words and phrases so badly. It's less of an issue as you then hear the french role players covering it in the role play so you hear how it should be said but it is poor someone who does not have good pronounciation has been used for a good quality paying product - which overall all Rocket French absolutely is.

I’ve been using Rocket French level 1 for several weeks now on an iPad. Though I think the format is very good in the way it introduces practical speaking without burdening with grammar, I am unhappy with the software itself. Trying to listen to a sentence that starts after skipping the 1st couple of words gets annoying, and the recording of my speech is too often very poor so that I have to repeat myself 3 times. This occurs on the app as well as on the website. I have contacted Rocket French, and though they are responsive, there has been no improvement, and there’s nothIng wrong with my iPad settings. I just think the software needs revision. I have started it and will continue, but I’m not sure I would recommend it.

Response from Rocket Languages

Thank you for your review, Andrew! We're sorry to hear about these issues. As you mentioned, our friendly support staff have been assisting you via email, but to gain a clearer understanding of the problem, let's schedule a call with our IT team.

No use of customer service just yet.

A few notes -- Distinguish between travel Spanish vs. a full language acquisition focus.

On the full language acquisition pathway:
Get to basic verb conjugation with genders earlier.
Establish the concept of the present tense.
Keep the pattern of building vocab with valuable phrases.

The product has dramatically improved since 2018 -- good work. When I ran the language learning product management for Rosetta Stone foundations, I looked at you. I like your progress.

Response from Rocket Languages

Thank you for your feedback. It's great to hear your perspective on our Rocket Spanish course. We have divided our course into Audio lessons, where you'll focus on speaking and listening. These lessons cover topics that you might find more relevant to travel or will teach you the basics if you plan to spend a few weeks in a Spanish-speaking country. Language and Culture lessons, on the other hand, are designed to guide users through more in-depth grammar alongside what is covered in the Audio lessons. Many of the topics you've mentioned are explicitly addressed in the Language and Culture lessons in the latter half of Module 1. We want the course to be accessible to users who are learning a second language for the first time. Therefore, to begin with, we provide examples of the present tense in the Audio lessons without getting bogged down in grammar. This way, when we dive into a more detailed explanation, learners can make connections to what they have already seen. In other words, our approach is to ease learners into grammar rather than overwhelming them with jargon that might be inaccessible. I hope this helps explain some of the ethos of our course. If you have any further thoughts, we would be interested in hearing them; feel free to get in touch at [email protected].
