Ich lerne gerne. The lessons are fun and Nik and Paul are funny. They really try to make the experience hands-on (so to speak) and enjoyable. I can hardly wait to complete a lesson so I move on to the next one!

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.

I've seen the light. This is definitely how Languages should have been taught.

Response from Rocket Languages

We completely agree, Jaakko, and are glad to hear that you're getting a lot out of the comprehensive nature of our Rocket Russian course. Keep up the great work!

I 've been enjoying the course so far! I like the fact that I can work my own pace. I find it the voice recognition system very useful as I always compare the native speaker pronunciation with mine. I've noticed that my comprehension skills have improved and also the cultural aspects associated with the course are to the point. It makes learning memorable :)

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.

I did a lot of research and Rocket Languages is definitely the best fit for me. I really like how the lessons incorporate listening, speaking, and writing and have extensive practice to reinforce each lesson. I find it matches my learning style very well. Thanks for creating the program!

It's challenging, but I hope to learn more each day. This is only my second lesson in the trial but I'm hopeful and excited. So far the lessons seem relevant in context to real life conversations and interactions. I am only on my first month of study but other lessons I've tried did not use any relevant conversation in context. I've read good reviews about rocket to lead me here, so I will make a good review from what i have seen so far. I have a specific language learning goal to be able to communicate with a korean family member in one year. I'm not sure if that is specific enough, but I'm certain that I will at least be able to have a simple conversation with her already when the same time using duolingo didn't teach me anything useful.

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!
