I love being able to learn German
Tschuss -Charlotte

A fun and easy way to learn. Several years ago I started with Rocket German before a trip to Germany. Although I didn't progress very far with the lessons, what I did learn really helped with important things like ordering food, booking a room, getting directions, etc. Now I'm planning a trip to Austria and am planning to go through all 3 levels of lessons before my trip in September 2013. Its a really fun way to learn.

Before subscribing to Rocket German, I had tried for years, off and on, to learn German. I read primers, readers, phrase books, listened to CDs and even took the first two levels of Rosette Stone, but I never really got much past the basics. I could read some, but couldn't understand it when it was spoken, and had difficulty communicating in anything except very simple phrases.

Now, with Rocket, I can feel myself finally rising above that basic plateau. I suppose one could say it was my fault for not working harder and that would be true. I didn't work hard enough. I realize now I am working much harder than previously, but the thing is, with Rocket it doesn't seem like such hard work.

The thing about Rocket, I think, that makes it so effective is that it is structured in a multi dimensional way that keeps your interest and provides the tools and exercises to accommodate various learning styles. Some times my brain hurts and I have to take a break for a day (just like working out at the gym), but I never get bored. Besides the lessons, I find that I enjoy the forum. That actually surprised me because I'm not a social networking sort of guy. However, it is a good way to ask specific questions of a language expert, share problems with other students, and meet some interesting people. I think Rocket is a great course and a great buy.

lessons are fun and easy to follow. So far I am enjoying it very much

goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood

So far it seems the best out there for integrative learning without direct online tutoring or being in direct immersion in a native speaking country. I do have a little reservation about the pronunciation practice occasionally letting me "squeak by" too easily or not recognizing when I record my answer; For the most part though the pronunciation practice has been a great tool for learning how to pronounce the language better.

I have been working on my French via Rocket French for three years with breaks of a few months here and there while traveling. I find it enjoyable and fulfilling when I jump back into Rocket French. The recent changes in the program have added to the enjoyment and learning experience. Keep up the good work! I appreciate it.

This is an absolutely amazing platform. I have tried several others, Duolingo, studying workbooks, etc. This is by far the best. I feel that it has provided me highly conversational German already. I have purchased a membership for my family as well.

A very effective course for self-study, particularly for improving listening, writing, and speaking skills—especially useful for TCF or TEF exam preparation.

I think Rocket is a great language learning program. I like the way the course is laid out before you and it's up to you use as you see fit. The audio conversations are really good. Easy to keep your streak with as little or as much as you want. No nagging or annoying games. A bit of a pricey layout, but when you consider you have it for life its good value. Have completed 122 days so far and will keep going for as long as it takes.. Find the grammar explanations great.
