Rocket Languages review criteria
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.
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.
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!
So far so good :-) Working at my own pace through the Introduction and am starting to get an 'ear' for Hindi.
The Rocket Record function is great to help you get the intonation right. One thing I'm figuring out is how to say things naturally instead of like a robot so I'm playing around and experimenting with what I'm learning.
Excellent program that continues to improve. With each innovation the learning opportunities accelerate, the material builds on what went before, and soon the whole comes together as carefully laid bricks eventually form a complete structure. I highly recommend Rocket French to students of all levels.
Rocket Spanish is simply the best language course available (at any price); and as a bonus the price of Rocket Spanish itself is quite modest. I have tried virtually all rapid learning methods available in my quest to learn Spanish and have found the Rocket system superior for a variety of reasons including (but not limited to):
1) Portability - lessons are brief and can be downloaded as mp3 files for listening during travel (i.e. you are not stuck in front of a computer)
2) Engaging conversations and situations that are applicable for foreign travel
3) Grammar lessons are designed to be painless and effective
4) It is rather entertaining ... I find I can spend hours studying without feeling fatigue
5) Price - the cost of this program is a mere fraction of the cost of it's competitors; yet more overall more comprehensive and effective
6) Consistent improvement. The Staff of Rocket Spanish are constantly at work examining their product and adding features to make the features yet more effective.
I highly recommend this product to anyone whose work or travel requires the mastering of a foreign language; as well as for the culturally curious who simply want to have some fun.
Rocket French is structured perfectly for anyone who wants to learn it and doesn't have time to attend classes. It also allows the student to study the language at their own pace, repeat the lessons as many times as one wishes to and review knowledge of the language later on. Also having written text in front of my eyes helps me to understand audio lessons and pronunciations better. The course is designed the way which suits me best and therefore I love it. I tried learning French language by attending classes but I was completely disappointed and finding Rocket French was like finding GOLD/VIOLA THAT'S IT!!! Thank you Rocket French!
Método sencillo, mide los avances y permite practicar sin límites, tanto la escritura, la escucha y la pronunciación. Es progresivo y va avanzando con casos prácticos de aplicación del idioma. Me ha gustado.
I love Rocket Korean!
Courses are well-structured, very practical, and easy to follow. Instructors in the audios are both native and my accent improved really fast. I've been trying to study Korean for months but here is where I truly started to improve.
Highly recommended!
Simply enjoyable, don't need to spend too much time.
I think for some who don't know how to start, it's just a good tool.
But unfortunately I didn't find the full course, what I have it's only for beginners and intermediates, but not advance learners courses.
