I love the many opportunities u get with Rocket Language. And also how u can learn not only one language, but so many others, including sign language! I will definitely keep using Rocket Language for sure!!!
Rocket Languages is the best way to learn a language, right after having a personal tutor. The lessons are interactive, there a lot of tools at your disposal and it is very easy to track your progress.
So far I'm enjoying the course. My only complaint is that I'm not able to test myself on what I'm learning. That is where I find Duolingo superior (and also free, I might add). I find that Rocket is definitely useful but that on its own, it wouldn't be enough. A combination of Rocket, Duolingo and Yabla are what I need and have given me the best results so far.
Response from Rocket Languages
Response from Rocket Languages: There are Rocket Reinforcement activities at the end of each lesson, Benchmark tests, and Module tests fr when you have completed a group of lessons, that all test you on the concepts and vocab used within the lessons :)
I'm almost finished with Module two in french and so far I really like it. It's a good mix of audio lessons where you get a feel for how to use the language and the language lessons which teacher more grammar etc. I already feel more confident in my french and I am recognising more and more words out on the street and in conversations around me.
I tried Duolingo, but after a few lessons, the repetitiveness became annoying. Based on a friend's recommendation, I purchased Babbel, but cancelled during the trial period. As a beginning Spanish learner, I found it to be too difficult to follow.
I did some more research and decided that Rocket looked to be the best. I have not been disappointed; in fact, I have been extremely impressed with the effectiveness of the interactive lessons and the many additional tools provided to reinforce the lesson material.
I don't expect to purchase any more language lessons; but if I do, it will be Rocket.
Love the interface ...it is broken down so you can say it back great to have useful dialogue on subjects that matter in real travel situations . My wife and I are going back to Tuscany again next year and it would be wonderful to be able to communicate better this trip!
Rocket language is, for me, a very great opportunity to learn the basics of another language. However, I think the pricings are a little bit high. I am 12 years old and am learning Korean because there is a boy band i like called BTS. BTS are from South Korea and so, speak Korean. I like the learning style of rocket Korean very much, but it is overpriced. I am , however, learning very fast on here and would love to continue learning using this site.
I bought the French language version. Very good. I don't know about the other courses but I have a couple of reasons for not giving it a 5 star rating: 1. The pronunciation of the female speaker in the early lessons is often bad. She has a habit of not pronouncing the nasal "n" in the middle of words or in liaison word combinations. Consequently I use Google translate to learn and practice the pronunciation of these words. Google has a fast and slow mode which is also helpful but no male speaker option. Forvo pronunciation does but is limited in available styles. The best I've found is Acapela which has a choice of male, female, France French, Belgium French, Canadian French, emotive, flat, etc, but no speed option. The good thing is that the voice recognition system does recognize the pronunciation I use from Google etc. If I copy the speaker in the Rocket Language course when she uses words with "n" in the middle ( e.g. vingt, prendre, or combinations like "pas inquitez") it doesn't recognize them. NOTE, I am a native English speaker fluent in Chinese and Japanese. I have had many hours in language labs learning unfamiliar sounds.
So far I've only taken two classes in Egyptian Arabic and it's awesome ! I am so happy to finally be learning a new language.
What I really like is that the interface is great, but the content is actually quite good too ! I love the fact that the person teaching you through the audios is super nice and very encouraging. The pace (beginner) is very good because it lets you understand each word and then put them together. Most of all : it explains the roots of certain words and describe how the language actually works... So far I'm just loving it.
I completed all French lessons from the most popular online language learning course. When I finished, I couldn't carry on a conversation. I chatted with another student online who had taken the same classes, and he told me not to become discouraged. He went through the lessons three times before he became comfortable. That shouldn't be necessary. I decided to try Rocket French instead. In a few days, I was able to start speaking simple and useful sentences! This may be a matter of learning style; different people learn differently, but there is no question that Rocket French is better for me. The other learning program is total immersion with no explanations in English. Simple things like "de le" is "du" is something I had to figure out, whereas Rocket French explains that and it's so much easier. There is so much conversational practice in French that I don't feel that I'm missing out by reading explanations in English. I leave for Paris in a few weeks, and I already know so much more than I did a week ago! Today I will complete Module 1 and over the weekend I hope to finish Module 2. Making such quick progress has made me obsessed! By the time I go, I expect to be comfortable ordering food in a restaurant, shopping, and meeting new people in French! Of course I can't become proficient in such a short time, but French people I've spoken with are very patient when we try to learn. Merci beaucoup Rocket French!
