Rocket Languages Reviews

Estupendo. Voy a mi marcha. Está muy bien para el autoaprendizaje, pero hay que repasar.

I love Rocket Spanish. I've tried Duolingo, it was free, but It got to the point where they were teaching things like "The bird watched the game on TV" and "The cows cleaned the farm yesterday". I also took level one of Destinos, which a story you followed on video, and had a text book and workbook for learning other vocabulary. It was good, but I feel Rocket Spanish is a better fit for me. With Rocket Spanish, I can study on my phone or tablet, so I can take it to work and study during lunch or when I have to travel. Second, I'm not wasting my time learning sentences I would never use in real life. And with Rocket Spanish, it's not just listening and typing a response, but I get to respond vocally as well. Other programs like Rosetta Stone may have this feature, but they don't offer lifetime use and free updates. Finally, I have to say that their customer support is second to none. When I first started I experienced a couple of problems, but both times the customer service people were quick to fix the issues and gete back to my studies right away. Right now I'm half way through level 1, and I'm looking forward to purchasing levels 2 and 3 as well.

This is fun! It is not like school work instead it is like playing games. The best part is listening to the speakers speak the language so you can 'get' the ear! I am spending thirty minutes on Rocket Spanish five times a week and it is paying off!

I bought Rocket French, Spanish, and Portuguese, and am thrilled with it. I rarely write review, but my husband and I were just enjoying it (in preparation for a sabbatical year in Spain and France) and we are grateful we have this (as a lifetime resource no less).

The free trial was very good. Elected to purchase 1st set based on the free trial. Had some issues with unlocking the purchased due to my error. This was pointed out by a very helpful customer service person, however, it did take sometime for a response. Got very frustrated waiting for a response after several emails, / customer help calls.

Once unlocked my account works really well. The lessons are on point and user friendly. Strongly recommend.

Rocket French is fun, easy to use, very thorough and contains a large amount of content for practice and improvement. I would recommend it to anyone.

I am so grateful to have come across this website. Even though I do not do the lessons on a regular basis I still have learned a lot thus far. I really enjoy the mic feature. My pronunciation is not the best so this feature really helps me with this. I also recommend this website to all my friends who are trying to learn a new language.

The format is perfect for my learning style and being able to interact with the conversations is great. The recording feature is very helpful for working on my pronunciation. The course is well structured for anyone interested in learning a language at home or would be a good supplement to a classroom lesson.

I have called you folks ten times, I have e-mailed you ten times and have received no response ever. What a way to do business

I purchased the entire Rocket Japanese set (beginners, intermediate, advanced) for an amazing deal offered on Thanksgiving. I really, really like the way it's organized and the flow of the lessons from one to another. For the first week, I made the mistake of not learning the characters in tandem with learning the spoken word - you really have to learn them both together. People on the forum (which is very friendly with very helpful posts/responses) talked me into studying the characters at the same time. I thought it would be overwhelming, but it wasn't at all!! In fact, within 3 weeks, I will have learned all the characters - much less intimidating than I thought. I feel very confident that when I visit Japan towards the end of the year, I'll have a great grasp of the language, both spoken and written.

The only negative is the support. It takes days for anyone to get back to you. The first time I submitted a question, I think it took 5 days for a response. Luckily, my question are associated with profile questions, not support for the product, otherwise I'd find that very irritating.
