Since I originally purchased Rocket German there has been two revisions. I'm glad to see that the program gets updated. I like the current format. With the previous update I noticed a significant improvement in the voice recognition. With the latest version, I think that some of that recognition is not quite as good. At midday it seems that the voice recognition has a difficult time. I'm sure that the voice recognition is very difficult to accomplish. (fyi. I use headphones with a mic and no background noise). Over the past few years, I've taken in-class and online German classes and used a couple of apps, but come back to Rocket German as my preference (although teacher instructed course covered sentence structure and verb conjugation).

Response from Rocket Languages

Thanks so much for your review Doug, it's sincerely appreciated. It's great to hear that you are enjoying the new format! We think it's more intuitive and modern, and hopefully our learners think so too! We have found 18 Language and Culture lessons in the Rocket German level 1 course that will help you with sentence structure and verb conjugation. We will send a list of them through to you, for your reference. All the best with your language learning!

The 2021 update is really good. I like that things are explained up front. I.E. the expression Hilf mir.
Before I didn't understand why mir was used instead of mich.The explanation was given allowing me to retain the expression easily. The difference between You speak good German and You speak German well also has made things clearer. Also I seem to understand Lena better than the previous lady speaker.
Also greatly improved is having the German letters with the Umlaut and the double SS available in the written portion while using the
computer keyboard. also makes the written portion easier by being able to concentrate on proper spelling instead of hunting for the special characters on the little keyboard.

Thanks for the improvements.

Out of all the courses I've used, I've easily learned the most from this one.

Some of the other resources I've used have been heavily focused on trial and error, and they leave you with only a vague understanding of the language. They'll pair a sound with some pictures or a rough translation of what the words mean and you're supposed to just repeat the sounds and hope that you kind of understand them. This may work especially well for romance languages if you're coming to it as an English-speaker, but not for something as far-removed from English as Japanese.

This course does something I haven't seen any other course do, and it explains exactly why sentences are structured the way they are. This makes it much easier to learn the language because it gives you room to experiment with the words you're learning. Just knowing how particles work and how sentences are usually structured makes a big difference in how much information I end up retaining, because I'll actually know how to use a word I'm learning in a sentence.

This is a great course, and I highly recommend it even if it's not your first, but especially if it is.

I've been learning French for a long time, but I've always just watched Youtube videos or listened to popular podcasts for French learners. In other words, I didn't learn actively. So, I already knew a lot of phrases, but even for me, the level 1 lessons are helpful. I always find something that I'm surprised how much I don't know how to spell French words that I already know its sounds through this course. And super easy to follow! Good investment for sure.

The lessons are full of useful phrases and vocabulary. The presenters make everything clear and accessible, and there is an element of fun which is great to reinforce the learning process. I look forward to my lessons every day! And I know I'm making progress!
