This is a great way to brush up on my school French that I learned many years ago. I am getting ready for a three week trip to France. Allons-y! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

You should try as many resources as possible when learning a new language. Prior to Rocket Languages, I consulted a textbook, Rosetta Stone software, and Pimsleur audio lessons. The Rocket Languages program is the most balanced approach, when it comes to learning styles.

Textbook
+ Index and dictionary
+ Many opportunities for explanation and background information
- Very linear
- Not immersive

Rosetta Stone
+ The most vocabulary
+ Visual reinforcement through images
+ Very slick interface
- No English
- No explanations
- Images are bad at expressing multiple ideas
- Images are bad at expressing time and use of tenses
- The grading scale is unhelpful

Audible
+ Efficient explanations
+ Easy progression in small steps
+ Lots of repetition
- The reading lessons are tacked on at the end
- Poor exposure to the written word
- Poor explanation of tenses

Rocket Languages
+ Listening, Reading, and Speaking functionality is strongly integrated
+ High quality audio
+ PDF handouts and downloads make it easy to learn away from the computer
+ Curriculum offers multiple definitions, when appropriate
- The progression is a little fast
- Needs more repetition within the audio lessons
- Maybe pair the audio lessons with a slideshow for visual reinforcement?

Rocket Languages is the best value, when compared to other learning solutions. I will go to Rocket Languages first when I try my next language.

I use Rocket German on my iPod while I'm on the road driving or walking. I enjoy the voices of the familiar Rocket characters, Nik and Paul. I especially appreciate the quirky humor that's worked into each lesson. Thanks guys! You make learning fun!

I am having a lot of fun with Rocket German, and next, Rocket Spanish. This program is pretty great. I hope lots of people make use of it. Other programs I have tried did not compare.

Like anything else, with practice, I see progress. Plus, I enjoy the conversational parts very much - they are not dry and boring like other programs I have used! Each lesson is categorized in a logical way, and as progress is made, previous terms are brought up again, which helps reinforce the vocabulary and usage.

Rocket Languages focuses on key words and phrases instead of overloading you with vocabulary. You gradually pick up new words with each lesson, which makes it much easier to retain what you've learned. There is also a big emphasis on accent, which is very important not only for being understood when you speak, but helps you understand when spoken to.

Este es un excelente metodo para aprender un idioma aunque no sepas casi nada. Empece hace un par de dias y me ha encantado, es facil y se progresa muy rapido. Lo recomiendo a todo aquel que quiera aprender un nuevo idioma.
