It's a great way to learn a language with a real emphasis on speaking. You feel you are making progress quickly.

I have previously bought the French course which is excellent. I havent started my Korean lessons yet, but I have checked the structure of the course and it is excellent in comparison to other online courses as I have bought other courses. I am sure that I will learn Korean and Mandarin with you guys. Thank you!

My product review should be understood in the context of a man in his 70s struggling to learn a new language. Before purchasing the premium version of Rocket French, I had used Duo, Babbel, and taken an introductory course at a local community college. Duo is easy enough, not demanding. It is a source of vocabulary, but one can put in many hours without confidence of using the words in speech. Babbel promised more interaction, but the speech sensitivity is seriously flawed. Otherwise the program is brisk and challenging. My college class showed that one's hearing in late retirement is unreliable, so keeping up with students less than ⅓ of my age was troubling.
Rocket French requires lots of oral practice, which the others lack. The tablet version of the program (I use a new iPad Pro with gobs of memory) has a problem similar to Babbel's, where the end of sentences are ignored. I can test this by just repeating the phrases that are missed and it translates those just fine. On my desktop iMac, the program works just fine.
Rocket French is more expensive than the other drills, and quite possibly less costly to create. I find that the method is engaging and leans more directly on the need to listen and speak. It has become my primary learning tool.

According to me it is extremely good because someone is able to learn the pronunciation of the words in French and at the same time learning to to write in friend.. It is a good learning tool really.... Absolutely awesome

I've only been using Rocket French for 6 days, several hours per day, but I really like the balance of the approach so far. They don't give you too much to absorb at any one time, and they do a good job of going over it from different angles to aid your comprehension and retention. It's a casual, but effective approach. I've had no issues using Firefox, although the voice recognition isn't there, but I have no problems evaluating my own pronunciation by comparing it to the audio. I did have problems with Edge. Haven't used it with Safari yet.

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Robert - Thanks for the feedback. The voice recognition system, Rocket Record, works on Chrome, Safari, and the iOS and Android apps!

I've only been using Rocket Language Spanish for two weeks and I feel comfortable having a conversation with a Spanish speaker. Another year from now I'm planning on being fluent by using Rocket Language Spanish

Rocket Spanish is completely awesome! I've only studied a couple of weeks and already feel confident that I can converse. It's an excellent program, well worth the cost!! I am looking forward to continued learning. Thank you for helping me become fluent in Rocket Spanish.

I am enjoying my Rocket Italian course. The lessons are well structured with useful information on some Italian verbs.
I like the fact the lessons are spoken at a slow speed before we hear the Italian spoken at a normal speed . plenty of opportunity to test your own pronunciation .
Keep up the good work !
Thank you

Finally, a course in Japanese that actually works for me! After numerous attempts to learn the beautiful but challenging language of Japanese through grammar books, CDs, and various software programs, I finally found Rocket Japanese, and now I feel that I am learning to speak and understand Japanese, instead of experiencing frustration and failure.

When I first started University back in 2017 I decided to take on the Japanese language and looked at so many resources. Rocket languages came up back then but I passed on it because of the price (poor student life). I tried many other resources but none of them really teach the language more than show you some phrases and make you memorise stuff.

I decided to try learn the language again and after finishing all the free lessons I figured I should make use of the discount and took the dive to purchase the course. I have only been learning for 4 days so far but in that time I have learnt more that I did in 2 weeks back when I first tried.

Everything is covered from written language, spoken language, grammar, you name it!

Highly recommend Rocket Japanese to anyone looking to give it a try. I'm sure the other languages are great too!
