Rocket Languages Reviews

The course structure enables learner to advance at his or her own pace. Sometimes the sentences are too long and the pronunciation too difficult to hear - even though my hearing is excellent. When I do these activities in Rocket Korean and upon listening to Pimsleur Korean in my car, I find that the Korean sound system to be more challenging than the sound system in most other languages. Perhaps being able to hear sounds at a slower pace would benefit me until I know more about how to enunciate the sounds as a Korean speaker does.

While I use the Chrome browser as directed, I must say - "All that glitters is not chrome!" Sometimes the system slows down and requires that I log out and log back on. This is a technical issue more with Chrome than with Rocket Korean.

I am enjoying learning Hindi from my own home, the app is great. The interactive speaking component is fantastic, I am enjoying working on getting my pronunciation right! I like the points and badges they are good motivators.

Enjoying Rocket Italian. The flow of the lessons is good. Both the website and the iOS apps are quite good. There are some minor usability issues worth noting. 1. I can't find a way to speed up the recorded lessons which would be helpful for me as I have some background in the language so the early lessons could be moved through faster. 2. The flow of the testing on the web pages is a little confusing. Not clear when you've finished a section and when you haven't. As such, the badges don't appear as completed when I think I have done so. All that being said, I'm learning a lot and enjoying the product. Glad I bought it.

The overriding problem with Rocket Languages is the faulty audio system. I own a MacBook Air 2013 computer for which the audio is excellent for all programs except this one.

Leaderboard and badges contribute to a more positive learning experience.

Your program coordinates well with Rosetta Stone and Pimsleur. Each of the three offers something special.
Rosetta Stone covers grammar in an incremental, methodical manner - offering extremely valuable practice
exercises on a whole host of subject matter and syntactical patterns. Rocket Language is a good follow-on to
Rosetta Stone and Pimsluer and offers effective reinforcement of both types of learning. For some languages,
Rocket Language sentences are overly complex if introduced too soon. They are challenging to master.

This is my first time using the computer exclusively to attempt to learn Spanish, or study any subject, really. So far, I find it very satisfactory.
I'm having a little difficulty with the Spanish keyboard is there not an "inverted" ?

Although quite new to this program, already I have learned much more than from a competitor. The learning is fun, repetitive (which is much needed!) and the lessons are given in a variety of settings which helps to solidify what I'm learning. When I have found it necessary to contact Customer Service, I have been very happy with the quick, polite and thorough responses.

The online Spanish Course is exactly what I was looking for and the price was easily affordable. I will turn 73 this year and one time through the materials is never enough for me but I am able to repeat each exercise several times until I can complete it flawlessly. The record-it application is very smart and has been a tremendous help in improving my pronunciation, the intonation and phrasing of short sentences. I am part way through the first module but I am looking forward to the grammar and survival lessons. I believe I could be ready for Mandarin in a couple of years. This is my first attempt at learning a second language to my native American Mid-West English.

I've definitely fallen in love with this program! It's so easy to follow and Kenny-san and Sayaka-san are awesome! I love how in depth they go into simple phrases and the hear it say it, quiz and write is, has been helping me remember the hiragana and the pronunciation of the words/phrases. I recommended my friend try this program and he's trying out the trial first but says he likes what he sees. A definite tip: practice, practice, practice. I like that they tell me to listen to the audio twice, but I'll make sure to go back to what I've already learned from time to time to not forget anything. I also love that they start with the previous lessons conversation and ask you if you remember certain key words. Amazing course, I love it!

I gave customer service 3 stars because I haven't interacted with them as of yet (I haven't needed to thank goodness), but when that changes I'll give my opinion then as well .

Thanks Rocket Languages!

The course is good and I believe it will teach me the language, however I think the course could be have a little bit of fun because and it can be extremely boring sometimes. There are no videos or pictures or any kind of entertainment. It does not take any smile from your face while you are doing it.

I just bought this rocket french yesterday, and I find it extremely helpful. Now I'm working on module 1 lesson 2. I definitely are very satisfied with my experience of Rocket Languages, but I'm not so likely to buy it again because of price problems. Anyways, the Customer Service was was great. I also like how we have points and take an record of streaks, that way we can encourage ourselves to spend more time in learning on Rocket Languages. All in all, I really liked it!
