Rocket Languages review criteria
The Portuguese language is a romance language with the similarity of Italian and Spanish. Reading and hearing is an important factor to learn the language. I am always reading and hearing, and speaking the Portuguese language through my tongue in order to practice my tongue in pronunciation with hardship.
In my pursuit of trying to study Mandarin, I have tried many, many, many courses, both in-person and online, and never quite found one that helped me stay motivated. In each case, I never felt like I was absorbing anything and would become discouraged really easily.
After trying a few lessons of Rocket Chinese, I can honestly say that this is by far the best course I’ve tried so far! I can not say enough good things about this course! Among the many things I love about it:
1. The price: the price is extremely reasonable especially given it’s a lifetime membership!
2. The course structure: the fact that the overall course initially focuses on oral rather than both oral and written skills. While I definitely want to learn the written portion and the course has more than enough to cover that in later lessons, I really prefer to focus on my conversation skills initially especially given that pronunciation is extremely critical in Mandarin! Many courses focus on both from the start, which ends up overwhelming and discouraging me.

Please contact customer support about the Siri issue. It is probably an easy fix. Also, offline usage on the app is coming soon!
So far, it has been an excellent program!. It is very complete and friendly with the user which makes it not only interesting but easy and enjoyable to use. It is also good to have an e-mail each week to keep in touch with the course and add alittle bit more to your learning.
I am very happy and proud of myself for i chosen the rocket languages i learn french very fast with you i would like to recommend to my friends my family and thank you so much for your service i thought i would never learn french but you are super cool thank you very much
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!
I have learnt more Portuguese in 3 weeks than I learnt French after 5 years of formal didactic teaching in school. I am quite surprised by how eager I am to take the next lesson and also by how the badge system actually keeps me motivated. I would definitely recommend to this product to a friend or anyone looking to learn a new language!!
I have tried in the past to learn ASL~but I am finally learning and understanding it better than ever. Thank you

Hi Maureen, thank you for your review. It's awesome that you are making such good progress in terms of understanding with Rocket Sign Language. We hope that your language-learning journey continues along its current trajectory!
It is good for someone who knows nothing to be able to gain useful phrases and to practice the proper pronunciation. The material covers a good range of every day communication which is good if you are planning to use this for traveling.
Probably a good jump start to begin using the language right away.
On the plus side:
• I like the way grammatical rules are discussed in understandable, laymans’ terms
• It’s easy to learn/revise words and phrases
• It’s easy to develop your listening skills to understand what people are saying and its easy to develop skills in identifying what to say
But there is room for improvement:
• Speech recognition needs improvement
o Gives some poor pronunciation 100%, but doesn’t recognise closer attempts
o When sentences are long it often cuts you off
o Often (every session) crashes for no reason and you have to log in again
• Its easy to put all your effort into reading and writing – rather than developing listening and speaking skills
Rocket German picks up where the (excellent) Michel Thomas German course finishes. Once you have learned the basics of German sentence structure using Michel Thomas, Rocket German gives you a wealth of vocabulary to use in your conversations. It's friendly to listen to, and the vocab "sticks" unless the typical "Learn German in your car" style CDs which just throw vocab at you, and hope that you'll remember a small percentage of it.
