Rocket Languages Reviews

I am a linguist, a teacher of foreign languages and a native speaker of Spanish. This platform is a good resource to add to one's learning tools and it is a very good way to keep the language alive. I was skeptical at first of this electronic platform, but then I became almost addict to it. It works if you put your heart and soul in acquiring your target language. Well done!

With a 1200+ day streak on Duolingo, and some work on Memrise, I feel I have a decent vocabulary. Rocket is filling a big void in oral comprehension and speaking. I started at the beginning rather than jumping ahead, which was a good move. I really appreciate that all speaking is done by real people -- no computer generated voices.

I experienced the free trial of American Sign Language and was disappointed. Almost half of every video available would not work, despite reloading the page or backing up and proceeding forward to the pain I had not seen before – but nothing worked. As a result, I was unable to take advantage of a significant portion of the testing. In relation to the testing, I did not see any attempts to help the student realize their error in signing or recommend A reminder when a test question was wrong. I looked at the subject matter and chapters for all the first course for ASL and felt that The price was way too high for what little was being covered relative to the price.

I sincerely hope that these matters anymore are reviewed, reevaluated, expanded and corrected.

Thank you,
Lynn Simoneau

I have been working with the free trial for over a month, and even using it every day, there was a lot of free material given to really get a "feel" for the course. I have fallen in love with it, and just purchased the Premium Package today. For me, speaking and understanding are my weakest points, and in my opinion, this is where Rocket Language outshines every other program. Those "live" role-playing exercises are intense, and really give me a rush when I can successfully get through even the level one part of the conversation.
My only issue is having to use Chrome, I was on Chrome when I tried to purchase the package, and it kept screwing up my information, I finally had to go over to Safari and purchase it there, then go through switching the program to Chrome - it was irritating.
However, that is a minor complaint concerning the purchase and log-in process and has nothing to do with the amazing content Rocket has to offer.
Also, I have to add, while I was having hassles with the login, I called customer support and they are absolutely amazing! No robots, I got to a real person right away who fixed the issue immediately, was nice and funny and very friendly.

Rocket Languages has made learning Spanish much easier. I always wanted to learn a 2nd language and even took Spanish in high school, but Rocket Spanish incorporates the vocabulary, grammar, exercises and quizzes with the ability to hear the correct pronunciations from a native speaker. This is much better than learning the pronunciations from someone who has only visited a Spanish speaking country. I can definitely say that I have learned more with one course of Rocket Spanish than I did taking two courses in high school.

I love the weekly email to help you on your course. This is not a program where you pay your money and you are left hanging out to dry. As with any program, you get out of it what you put into it, but Rocket Spanish makes it fun for you to spend time in its programing.

Really enjoying Rocket Italian! The courses are loads of fun and I appreciate how they build on each other to provide a strong learning foundation.

I have to admit listening and practicing speaking Hindi on rocket languages has given me a fast way to learn very common phrases requires to get around using Hindi and even memorize individual worlds very quickly! I plan on learning Arabic on here now because of the success I've had with Hindi on here.

This is the third Arabic program I've tried. I was told to learn standard Arabic before the Egyptian dialect, but it is a very hard language and my trip is coming up tooooo quickly. I'm so glad I changed. So many of the words are pronounced differently, yet sentence structure, etc is the same. My Arabic dictionary still comes in handy, my spelling is improving, (slowly), and my Egyptian friends are amazed how much my pronunciation has improved! (Much better than learning from someone from Morocco.) But the way the program itself is set up is awesome. The way the computer shows you exactly what letters you are pronouncing is pure genius! I may never get that Ra, but I used to think the same thing about the Kha, so who knows?? I love it!!

Hola, estoy empezando una nueva aventura con Rocket Languages, y estoy emocionada por aprender English y los metodos didacticos para el aprendizaje son super!!

Rocket is great I love the new stuff it helps me better understand the fundamental basics of Japanese
