I really like how the conversation is broken down so that you understand each word, and the Hear It, Say It and Know It features really help my pronunciation. I feel that I have been able to retain the sentences I learn in the Interactive Audios. I also like how we are given opportunities to answer questions during the dialogues so that we can practice speaking on the fly. There are a lot of additional features and tools in the Survival Kit and Language & Culture sections; I really have gotten so much value for my money!
The voice narrator needs to be replaced, she is too monotone. Lessons should still to an extent reteach verb forms or grammar rules they have mentioned before, instead of telling the audience to refer to an obscure moment in a previous audio session. Besides that, the course is helpful.
I find this an excellent in depth course and I am using it as my joint main study course with ProSpanish and Lightspeed Spanish. I have the best of both worlds: Latin American and Castilian Spanish. My only regret is that my study time is reduced with my wide net of study materials. Compounded by my studies in Rocket German simultaneously. I particularly enjoy the facility of being able to playback phrases and sentences that enable me to enhance my pronunciation. My studies are becoming more centred around this tool. With all three levels to cover in my two courses with Rocket I look forward to a continuing stimulating and colourful experience.
Outstanding Learning tools, Other Language learning tools have nothing on Rocket Korean, I can learn on my Laptop at home or on my phone during breaks at work. And Depending on the Area I am working , I can put my ear piece in and learn away, I really love the Voice recognition
Rocket Languages should be the first name, and the only name, in the world of learning languages. Ease of use creates an environment where it becomes fun to learn. Being bilingual should be in everybody's repertoire.
I'm so glad that I found this program (I saw it highly reviewed on a blog). I'm using it to learn Arabic, and I'm really impressed with all of the ways the program allows you to practice along the way. You spend a lot of time actually vocalizing the words rather than just reading them or hearing them. The program records your attempts at each word/sentence and rates your progress with each one (100%, 75%, 50%, 0%). You can easily go back to the words that you're struggling with to keep practicing them. The lessons are very helpful, and they list the important phrases below so you don't have to try and find them again in the larger recording. It's equally great on the desktop or the app. I first started using the (free) app and liked it so much that I bought the Level 1 Arabic, and definitely haven't regretted it!
So far so good! I like it better than Rosetta Stone and some other packages that I have tried. I have traveled in Russia, but my language skills were 'survival level' at best. I am hoping to pick up my game.
Your program is fine and efficient. Nevertheless the dialogues are a little boring ("Beijing seems to be a big city" , well, who doesn't know it?) and there is a BIG mistake in lesson 5.5 Places worth checking out in Beijing (the quizz) : the Great Wall of China CANNOT be seem from the moon ! Check it if you don't believe me. It's a myth !!!
The short time I've used Rocket Language has been tremendous. About half a year ago, I challenged myself to learn Spanish and so started trying the different free options. I found one I liked and poured my time into it, disciplining myself to studying every day. At first I loved it, racking up points and enjoying how successful the app made me feel, yet very soon I became frustrated. Grammar and rules of the language were apparently unimportant as the time was never taken to teach as to why a certain word or phrase was correct. And as for phrases and words that I would actually use in real life? I spent my time talking about giving alcoholic beverages to my pet bear. I soon realized that in regards to learning the language well, I was spinning my wheels.
All that to say this: This program has been a breath of fresh air! Right off the bat, the first lesson gave a tremendous layout of how I am to greet and interact with someone new that I may meet. This was extremely helpful, yet it didn't stop there. I soon found a found tab entitled "Language and Culture." It didn't take long for me to figure out that these lessons taught me the grammar and rules of the Spanish language.
I am half Italian and Hispanic, I was adopted from South America and I never knew my native tongue which is Spanish. People have asked me if I am Italian and I always say I'm half....when in truth I look more Italian than Hispanic, I have always loved the Italian language and always wanted to learn, I helped my mom learn when she went to Italy last year and the basic words I picked up on quick, so, I had the itch to learn. Rocket Italian is amazing and I love it !!!! Highly recommend to anyone wanting to learn Italian or any language. BEST CHRISTMAS GIFT EVER !!!!
