This is the core of the software and how you learn. With over 65 audio lessons it's really the backbone of it. This is the section of the site you will be in the majority of your time. Basically, you are given a dialogue between two or three people and you are supposed to listen to it and read along out loud. I actually really like how they do this vs Rosetta Stone or other programs because it gets you speaking the language really quick. It also gives you words in their context which shows how they are used and where they are put in a sentence.

After you have listened to the dialogue a couple times, you are then supposed to practice using the “Rocket Record” function. You simply record yourself and compare it with the native speakers accent. You are also given the ability to role play in the dialogue — meaning one person in the audio is taken out and you speak those parts instead.

Rocket French is so awesome, I can now be able to say some few words in French and I can bit understand when people are talking in French, though I cannot speak. Thanks to rocket French. Every day I make sure I give myself some few minutes to go through some rocket French lessons, I don't want to miss out

I Love How Easy It Is! I Have Tried Many Different Language Learning Options But None Can Even Begin To Compare To This One! Even More So I Am Using Library Edition So It Is Even More Convinent As It Is Free!

I've bought both Rocket Spanish and Rocket Italian, and find both to be excellent language-learning resources. The mix of timed repetition, different practical scenarios (at a restaurant, at a hotel, asking for directions, etc.), and the equal emphasis on speaking, listening, and writing are very helpful. I recommend Rocket Languages. (The only reason I'm not likely to buy again is that I don't currently plan to learn any additional languages.)

Response from Rocket Languages

It’s great to hear that the mix of Audio Lesson scenarios and skill practice is supporting your learning in both languages, Jim. Best of luck with your continued progress!

meraviglioso! Rocket Languages is an excellent program that allow you to learn and/or review the basics of the language you're trying to brush up on or simply learn the basics before you travel abroad.

I am really enjoying learning Arabic with Rocket Languages. The program is both engaging and fun, and I can learn on my computer, tablet or iphone. I highly recommend Rocket Languages for language learning.

What I like is that I can download lessons onto my iPod and then listen to them walking. Then I like to go to the practice sessions in front of the computer. Repeating these helps a lot.
Many thanks,
Michael

I find this an excellent in depth course and I am using it as my joint main study course with ProSpanish and Lightspeed Spanish. I have the best of both worlds: Latin American and Castilian Spanish. My only regret is that my study time is reduced with my wide net of study materials. Compounded by my studies in Rocket German simultaneously. I particularly enjoy the facility of being able to playback phrases and sentences that enable me to enhance my pronunciation. My studies are becoming more centred around this tool. With all three levels to cover in my two courses with Rocket I look forward to a continuing stimulating and colourful experience.

I truly enjoy the kinetic energy of the presentations. The sizing of each lesson is also very appropriate, I have used older Chinese courses and this is heads and shoulders above them all! I will be using this course in Taiwan this summer to hone my language skills!!

Rocket languages works! I spent about 6 weeks learning French in preparation for a holiday break. I was able to order food, drinks, ask for basic directions when lost, and have a very basic simple conversation. The best thing about Rocket is the facility to record your voice and compare it to the native speaker and practice again and again till you get it right (or at least good enough to be understood).

Personally, I don't think one could ever be fluent using any online programme. For that you need personal one to one tuition on a VERY regular basis and you would need to live in the country so you are forced to speak the language every single day. Otherwise - forget about advanced conversational level fluency - not ever gonna happen.

But if you want to make yourself understood for basic requests, to make your holiday a more enjoyable experience, then Rocket delivers as long as you put in the practice hours and persist.
