Rocket Languages review criteria
I like the sophistication of these lessons. Learn at your own lazy or slow level and be happy. It has made me feel pleased to be with Rocket French after trying several other online French lessons. I don't feel under pressure and I learn something new everyday. I thoroughly recommend Rocket Languages.
I had reviewed several programs before deciding to settle on Rocket Japanese for several reasons. I liked that you could teach yourself orally without having to read or write (though those options are included for those who are learning or sharpening their abilities), that progress was synced across devices and not limited to desktop or mobile only, and that there were multiple learning tools provided. I am not far into the program yet but so far I am really enjoying it and it has helped me immensely. I would absolutely recommend to friends, family, and strangers looking to learn.
I have tried them all (Rosetta, Pimsleur, Duolingo) and I must admit that this program does the best job of teaching Italian. The reason is simple -- repetition. As a former teacher, I believe in repetition. Too many programs give you a lesson but do not reinforce it. Rocket does. Another plus is the response to my feedback. If I have a problem, I get a response within a day (two at most). Most programs don't bother to respond at all. Another plus is the detailed lesson given at the beginning of the section. If you really want to learn the "ins" and "outs" of the language, the explanations are there for you. All you have to do is read and absorb. Some programs (I won't mention names) never bother to explain anything; they just expect you to learn on your own. If you wonder why I have only given 4 stars for would I buy again, it is because I am not that young and don't think I'll be trying another language. If I do, it will be Rocket. Oh, one more plus -- the one-time price. Yea!
I love Rocket Spanish - I feel like I can speak the language quickly and even received compliments while just on the first few lessons - told someone in Spanish that I was learning and they said that I spoke very well and clear - I'm so excited to continue!
Ciao tutti a Rocket Italian! I have been enjoying the course for a couple of weeks now. It's really helping my listening and speaking skills. I like the way it's based on conversations - this is very useful. and I also find the grammar explanations very good.
I can't wait to try it all out on my next visit to Italy.
Grazie e a presto!

It's wonderful to hear that you're enjoying our comprehensive Rocket Italian course, Judith. We can't wait to hear all about your experiences chatting with locals and using Italian on your next trip to Italy!
Rocket German managed to constantly keep me engaged where other programs failed. Usually I would lose interest about halfway (maybe even quarter way) through a program, but having the option of taking the audio lessons with me wherever I go gives me lots more options.
I can't recommend this program enough!
I like the fact that the program is well-rounded, focusing not only on reading, but also listening, writing and speaking. Also, the ability to redo lessons (or parts of lessons) helps reinforce areas you may feel a little weak on. The lessons build upon the previously learned items, so there is a gradual and logical process. Although the pricing may seem a bit steep (I certainly don't feel that way), when taking into consideration all that is offered, and the high quality of the lessons, I believe it to be an excellent value; as an added bonus, the ability to pay in instalments is a great option. And finally, cultural practices are touched upon to educate learners of situations which may seem different from what someone from an English-speaking culture would be accustomed to. All in all, I highly recommend Rocket Language Spanish as an excellent vehicle to learn the language!
Response from Rocket Languages
Thank you, Luis; we feel that culture is a crucial aspect of language learning, so it's incredible to hear you're enjoying this element of the course. We know that pricing can be a bit of a sticking point; however, as you pointed out, here at Rocket, we believe that language learning is an ongoing journey, which is why we offer a single purchase for lifetime access instead of a subscription model. Keep up the great work!
Great program the best that I have used so far. Love the fact that I can down load the audio and listen in my car The instructors speak slowly when they repeat the sentences after they speak at normal spoken speed. Also like the fact that you can print the transcript. I am currently at lesson 1.3 but am happy with my purchase. Would recommend this program for anyone wanting to learn Egyptian Arabic
it easy to me learning german ...good assisting for helping me pronouns verbs...........................................................................................................................................................................................
I have bought all three stages of rocket Spanish and it´s amazing. It´s so easy to follow, i am definitely learning a lot. One thing i love about American companies like rocket languages is that they really know how to teach: it's idiot proof which i consider a strength and not patronizing at all. One of the problems i faced with language learning is the speaking aspect and rocket languages covers this so well, a lot more than Rosetta Stone that is more expensive and in my opinion not worth it. I would definitely recommend this to anyone; value for money and a lot of content for you to go over AND there is no expiry date. It's so nice to have this account forever and not on some sort of time share. I think that makes this a million times better than Rosetta Stone as i don't feel pressured to learn and can learn at my own pace, which is still fast but without the time pressure. I actually believe i can reach fluency with Rocket's help and now i'm more determined than ever. I am also thinking of learning Chinese and i'm so happy Rocket has a chinese version too. I have aspirations to be a translator and i definitely would recommend Rocket to anyone so is thinking on the same lines. Clarity over complexity: this is the Rocket experience. 100/100
