Cannot say I am a motivated studier, especially in regards to new languages. I tried the competition's software and their immersion learning left me lost and confused. With Rocket Language I am starting out learning useful words and phrases and not stuck guessing how the word I am supposed to learn matches the picture as with the competition's software. The competitors version doesn't give me the English translation so I can solidify what I am learning. Hate that!

Awesome interactive experience for those wanting to learn a new language and cultural background! The fact that it is free is even more beneficial for users. I have been trying to pick up on Spanish for the longest time and I feel this is such an easy system for users to become comfortable using.

I truly enjoy this type of learning. I would say that it is exactly what needed, a module based learning platform to compliment face to face learning. I think this has really reinforced a lot of the language skills I developed. I just know that with more time and consistency Rocket Spanish will help me get to where I want to be! Thank you. I'm so glad I found Rocket Languages after going through many other language programs. This one works best for me.

Being a Brazilian Portuguese native speaker, I was sure Italian would come easy for me (it is all Latin after all!). However, I couldn't imagine how glad I would be for this course. Rocket Italian offers a well structured method, balancing repetition and new lessons. The tools work perfectly, the audios are nice and clear, and the Forum is quite helpful. I am preparing to take an Italian Certificate in the future, and I know already this course saved me a lot of time and money on the way there.

As a language educator for almost 20 years, I can really appreciate the hard work that has gone into the Rocket courses. One part that stands out is the dialogs with the sentence focus and the interactivity with them. The conversations seem quite useful and the 'extra vocabulary' (read: extra expressions) for each lesson are great. When learning any language, improving vocabulary is necessary (of course), the key is doing so in the context of sentences and life-like situations which make them truly more memorable and enjoyable! Rocket does that.

Suggestions to further improve the experience would be:
- Using the audio from section "6. Play it!" provide an additional download 'button' for the role-play's audio only, this is in addition to the entire lesson with the English explanations like you do at the start of each lesson. That would be so helpful to listen to and playback while in the car or on the bus etc.
- 75% speed button for dialogs. Having the option to go a little slower with some of the sentences is really handy to pick up on the exact sounds and then reproduce them.
- End of module review of some type. It could be simply a random selection of content from each subsection and exercise type.

Response from Rocket Languages

-The role play tracks are available, all stitched together in one track. They are in the last Module of each Level. -Noted. The issue is to get this working consistently across all the different browsers and devices. It is something we are looking at. -There are Rocket Certification tests at the end of each Module. Just look at My Dashboard. Note that we recently added a Benchmark test, which is available under My Tools > My Progress Keep up the good work!

The lessons are well-thought out and at a perfect speed for learning Italian. I am utilizing Rocket Italian with another excellent program and between the two of these resources, I feel confident that within a few months, I will have a good, solid basis for speaking and understanding basic Italian.

I'm an intermediate Spanish speaker and I really like my Rocket Language Course so far. The audio lessons are interesting, they sound natural and they incorporate a lot of colloquial expressions and informal language which is exactly what I needed in my practice. I also really like the explanation and lesson that accompanies each audio text because it often challenges the learner with "Now that you know how to say that, how would you say this?" I also like that the program forces me to practice my listening, speaking and writing with follow-up practice opportunities. I'm feeling like I am filling in my learning gaps and making progress each day.

I have spent hours comparing the top language software programs. I am convinced that I will learn Spanish more quickly with Rocket than any other program. Many of the other programs do not include grammar, and I believe this is essential to learning the language well. I am thoroughly enjoying the program and started speaking Spanish immediately.

I studied Rocket German for 6 months prior to my first vacation in Deutschland and was very happy I did. After some very basic greetings and goodbye's my confidence grew and soon I was looking forward to interacting with as many native speakers as I could. The lessons were definitely current and up to date. Cannot wait to go back.

I've tried them all and this is the one! The Italian course is so good that I ordered the next level because I wanted more! The course is designed to give you plenty of incentive to build your understanding and your vocabulary. The native speaker is wonderfully articulate yet natural and easy-going. This is truly the first time I've made real progress in my quest to learn any language. I'm starting French as soon as I'm finished with the first two Italian courses. The prices are very reasonable for the kind of classroom experience you're getting here at rocket languages. Thank you, NCC
