It has all the right content, but in all the wrong order. After struggling with the early lessons I realized I had to start each lesson at the bottom, learn the simple words and phrases and then make my way up to the longer stuff at the top/beginning.

Then after struggling with 5 lessons of long, complex multisyllabic structures, they finally introduce you to the endings and tone pronunciations. This means that the lesson structure is in the wrong order too.

Technology seems great, lesson ordering and general approach seems to need a lot of work.

Finally, this is likely a personal choice: but when I'm trying to learn Chinese I really don't want to have an exuberant english guy shouting at me about how excited he is. As I realize some may like this, I'd like an option to filter out Dave and just learn from the native speaker.

After 10 days of Rocket Italian, I am amazed at how good this course is---I am so enjoying trying to imitate Maria's beautiful Italian voice!! Feel like I've already learned a lot and look forward to doing the lessons every day. I take a 2-week trip to Italy with my daughter next June and feel confident that by then i'll be chattering away with the Italians I meet!

Clear, step by step learning. you can find everything, writing, listening, reading and grammar.
you can skip, review, re-do, and take quizzes. I do not think it misses anything unlike other online course. thank you Rocket languages.

I love how it is more casual then other programs. The cultural insights are great. I have used many programs and this is by far my favorite and the one I have made the most progress with. The price was good and I can’t wait to see how much I know at the end of the course. I started only knowing how to count to 3!

A great online tool to teach you how to get the nuances down of the Mandarin language. Topics covered are relevant and assist in everyday conversation. Also, cannot beat the price versus the competition.

A powerful learning tool especially the quiz from English back to the learning language as it tests 'how ' I want /need to express myself.
Using the ear for language learning as well as repetition are also powerful tools. Excellent for pronunciation and confidence as an adult learner.

I researched on-line courses and Rocket Italian got the best rating.

It is self paced (I use downloaded recordings then go back to the on-line text and grammar) and I have found it very easy to learn quite sophisticated (but I realise still "baby" language) phrases.

Coupled with a trip to Italy you get a really good accent.
I really recommend it as it is also quite inexpensive and I have so far nearly completed the second premium course in about a year using it on and off.

Rocket Spanish

I've decided to start learning Spanish this year and I took some Spanish courses in Hong Kong. They were good, but I felt I didn't have a chance to listen to native Spanish enough or had enough oral practice, and so I started searching for online courses. I read a review page about online Spanish courses, as someone who is serious about learning, I bought the top 3 that were recommended, Rocket Languages was among them. And I have to say, Rocket Languages MUST BE the best choice. I bought the 3-level bundle, and it is ABSOLUTELY worth it! The materials, the technology, the extra information, the grammar, I totally love the course! I don't remember exactly how much I paid for the course, but I remember the amount is equal to roughly 3-4 months of Spanish course in Hong Kong. Frankly, you can't learn that much in 4 months, a lesson per week, in a group setting with 20 students in a classroom. But then with Rocket Spanish, I can learn daily, and re-learn if certain parts are hard, and I can listen to the conversations on the bus, in the gym, etc.

In fact, I've already recommended my girlfriend to buy Rocket German, and friends from my Spanish class to buy the program.

Rocket Languages had been a good way to learn German since I started. I'm very busy right now and don't have time to learn as often as I would like to, but Rocket Languages provides easy ways to learn on the go which is great even if you have limited time throughput the week. I enjoy the tests so that if I'm away from learning for an extended period of time I can always retest myself to get up to speed.
