Rocket Languages Reviews

I love it it is one of the best apps ever for learning!


I am so glad I tried it out!

I've purchased Rocket German Levels 1 and 2 (and previously trialed Rocket French) and it's been great so far. It's much more practical for someone planning to travel to another country, especially when compared to other language learning programs like DuoLingo. The phrases they teach are ones you might actually use when traveling, and they teach the formal conjugations instead of informal (because when would you really use the informal "du" when traveling?). Starting from scratch would likely require you to really dig into the supporting materials (not just the audio courses), but the audio courses alone are worth the price if you have a basic understanding of the language. They are entertaining, move along relatively quickly but reinforce the learning via repetition. The price is very fair when compared to similar programs. Overall, very happy with my purchase!

Rocket Languages let's me learn at my own pace, with great resources that are ALWAYS available, whenever I have time. Plus, I get to learn about a new culture and have lots of options too! Definitely the most useful of the online tools out there.

Cannot get ahold of the support team and cannot sign in from the public library for free lessons since I already signed up for a trial account. Completely unacceptable. Would like for them to delete my email so I could possibly have access from the library system, but it is impossible to get ahold any one!

Lin & David make learning Chinese a pleasure. I don't get much time to study but this course makes a very difficult language easier to understand and my wife's family say my pronunciation is very good. Thanks. Alan Barlow

I like the way you have to talk. I have been trying to learn spanish fore a few years now, and I can understand a lot.
But when it comes to talking i got stuck.
Now after almost finishing the first module I see that I can answer the questions in the lessons not only repeating, but building new sentences with other words.
I am confident that I will learn to speak.

I got to the Spanish Interactive Audio Lesson 1.6 and I give up. The Rocket Record is terrible. I have a headset with a microphone (I'm not using my computer's built-in mic) and I have problems with the transcriptions about 40% of the time - and, believe it or not, it's not me. I live in Spain and I'm often told that my pronunciation is very good. Incredibly frustrating. Also, in the exercises, they'll ask you what is the Spanish for, say, "doctor" but they don't tell you if they want masculine or feminine. There are a number of spelling mistakes as well: such as when there's no accent mark where there should be an accent mark. And I love you Amy but, boy, are you annoying. The audio lessons are much too long and could easily be shortened if Amy would just get to the point. Finally, a note to Maurice: no means NO. If you ask someone if you can take her photo and she says no, drop it and move on. If you ask a woman for her phone number and she politely demurs, as Amy did, back off. You're creeping me out, man!

Rocket Languages is a great way to learn the language. I just completed my my first lesson in Rocket Spanish and I should say that I have had a great experience so far and enjoyed learning new words and grammar. I did not encounter any issues/negatives yet so far, and time will tell. The speaking after learning is a great way to remember what we learned so far with virtual interaction. I wish they had some pictures that can strengthen our ability to interact in a fun way, but that's just my feeling. I am a novice and it sets a good tone to the people who want to learn something new. I hope the engagement remains the same as I delve deeper into the course, but I can say that I can recommend this course/program to anyone who wants to jump in and learn a new language whether it is for personal/professional reasons or for a fun experience.

I've used Rosetta Stone for other languages including Arabic and nothing matches Rocket Arabic. Rosetta Stone was completely unusable. Rocket languages is the best method I've used to date for learning a language.

i like the rocket japenese learning system because i have learned so much and i want to go to japan when i grow up and there is a great video game company that i want to work for and i want to be a missionare.
