Rocket Languages Reviews

Something like "Doctor Mauricio" being part of the review for a lesson is really dumb. That is not a difficult thing to learn. And in the video/audio at the start of the lesson, why not go over estoy de vacaciones a little more. Like how to pronounce the word. That has been the hardest and longest word that has not been broken down in all of the lessons so far. I wasn't reading along and I had no idea there was a 'de' in the sentence.

This is my second day using Rocket French. I signed up for French 2 because I have been studying for a while on Duolingo and had French in high school centuries ago. I am learning a lot, I enjoy the variety of activities, and I especially like being able to hear and speak the language so much. The methodology here is just what I need.

I love the Italian course. It is hard to learn Italian, even though my native language is Spanish (we share feminine and masculine), but a lot of words are so different. I'll try my best. Thank you! I just would like to suggest something new in your website: It will be great if we can have a real time chat to ask questions and get the answers right away, instead of waiting for somebody to answer by email.

I just started to use this website and I'm starting to learn and understand the words better. I think if you need to learn a new languages you should use this website...

Enjoyable.
Balanced speak/hear/read/write (tilted toward speak/hear).
Good interface.
Feels like a complete tool: I think I can learn to speak Spanish quite well using Rocket without other resources (except, of course, Spanish-speaking friends to talk to.)
The speaking feedback needs work: usually too loose (terrible pronunciation gets 100%) with a few phrases, especially ones with numbers, almost impossible to get 100% every time they come up.

(There is no N/A choice on the above ratings; I have no experience with customer service so I would choose N/A if I could)

The thing that caught my eye about this product was the one time payment. I would much rather pay a hefty fee once than a small one over the course of the year, only to have to cancel it at a later date. It's a small thing, but super nice to me because now I feel no rush to practice or study. I've read a couple other reviews and would like to address that for any would be buyers: First off, the biggest complaint I see in the reviews is the voice recognition software sucks. So what? Don't use it. I've had this product for a while now and I've never used the voice recognition thing, not because it's bad but rather just because I don't need to. I listen to this when I'm jogging, or in a cafe, and I mumble the phrases back if at all. I practice by myself at home too. You don't need a microphone or a computer to repeat what you hear. The other con is the price, and like I addressed earlier, it may not be free but it's better than most free products such as Duolingo, and it's far better than subscription-based services. All I can say is this is working really well for me, and I wholeheartedly recommend it. Haven't needed the customer service yet, but I'm sure it's as good as everything else.

I am flying through the early lessons! Good stuff!

We moved to France from UK 4 months ago, I've got to say Rocket French has helped me so far. The exercises are fun to do, I particularly like the role play exercises. All in all a good buy and so far I've enjoyed in what to me is a difficult language to learn...

It's an easy and fun way to get started in any new language or to review after you had a pause.

Yes I liked it. It works for begainer as well as professional learner
