The audio recognition software is really bad. You can mumble anything and it will approve it which is pretty bad in such an audio focused lesson. But i like the setup of the program though and i like that i can favorite the words i have the most problem with to build up a collection of flashcards. I do think it's pretty expensive but I'm willing to bet on it being worth it.

I was super excited to get started and i did the first two lessons in the first day. The next day i woke up with the same excitement only to find out they accidentally removed my access to the course. I waited for five days for them fix it, with nothing but an whoopsie daisy excuse.

That whole experience definitely marred my honeymoon period with the app and severely hampered my excitement.

I hate the points and streaks function and you have provide no ability to switch off!

I am preferring the Pimsleur system far more.

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi G - Ha! That's because no-one has asked for it to be switched off before. We can add it to a list of suggestions to look at in the future.

The courses themselves are good however, Speech recognition is woeful.

Some days, there are no issues with speak recognition and then on others I often get many "no speech detected" errors followed by "speech recognition is busy". this makes the course unusable when this happens.

Response from Rocket Languages

We're sorry to hear that the issues you're experiencing with the speech recognition are affecting your learning. Please reach out to us at [email protected], and we'll be more than happy to schedule a call with our expert IT team to see how we can assist you!

Inconsistent and confusing !
The progression of difficulty in lessons is VERY problematic and not well though !
Sudden long chains of complex unknown words that you have to repeat during the gap which is often too short for long sentences even when you know them by heart.
Followed by obvious 2-word sentences you have seen and heard 5 times already.
Then back to a complex sentence filled with new words.
And not so much audio content in between.
Too expensive for that kind of inconsistency.

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Iza - Unlike some more popular languages, there is no set way of learning Hindi (everyone seems to have a different opinion on how it could/should be done). It probably has to do with it being a dialect, which means there isn't necessarily a lot of uniformity when it comes to some words and phrases. We revamped Rocket Hindi at the start of 2020 and I feel that it is one of the best Hindi courses that you will find.

First year of German course is good, but the quality goes downs in the second year.
Also, they are spammers: does not matter how many times you hit unsubscribe, you will continue to receive the wonderful 60% discount a LOT. I do not recommend at all.

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Alan, thank you for leaving a review. We appreciate your feedback. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the difficulty you faced while trying to unsubscribe from our emails. Our Customer Support team has reached out to confirm with you if we can remove your email address from our database. This ensures that you will not receive any further emails from us. The good news is that we recently released an updated version of Rocket German Level 2. You can, therefore, expect the new level 2 course to be extremely high quality and an integral stepping stone in your German language journey. We wish you the best!

Rocket Languages is an excellent way to learn a language . It opens you up to how you can pronounce the language through following the tutor. I enjoy the bit where you have to write because it is a good practice to know the words and how to pronounce them. I also like the flash cards because they enable you to pronounce and get to hear if you are doing it properly. My favorite is the quiz because it gives me the opportunity to show that I understand what I have been learning. I like Rocket Languages to an extend that I will not hesitate to recommend it to anyone willing to try it. I enjoy it when it also corrects spelling to show you where you went wrong right away.

So far, I am finding it rather boring and tedious. Certainly don't look forward to undertaking a lesson. Capability to record and replay ones responses useful.

Response from Rocket Languages

We're sorry to hear that the course doesn’t suit your learning style. Many lessons are designed to be as comprehensive as possible, which can feel overwhelming at first. Please contact us at [email protected], and we’d be happy to get on a call and discuss how you can approach the lessons in a more enjoyable and motivating way!

It was okay. Experience was not too great due to microphone issue that I need to shout just to be heard by the software which leads to frustration in learning. Would recommend to travelers who are into rote learning. Opinion on buying again and recommending to a friend may change once I have completed the courses.

I wouldn't recommend this program. It don't live up to what it promises to provide. If you're a student in college or interested in taking something to test out of ASL 1 and 2, don't expect this to provide that ability. There are much better programs out there, some of which have more to offer for free.

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Ramon - As of 2015 Rocket Sign Language has been fully updated. It now has over 2,500 videos of different signs!
