Rocket Languages Reviews

Fun to use. I love how they use basic conversation and repeat until it becomes more fluent. The lessons and information are engaging. I had a little difficulty navigating the app and website login. It was a little confusing at first because they each present the information differently. Customer service, Marie has been wonderful helping.

So far I am very happy with the Rocket Spanish. It is exactly what I was looking for. It has the listening portion that I can use on my way to work or while on a long walk. It also has the writing portion and the flash cards. I feel like having both really helps my understanding.

I tired the free trial for Rocket Languages as I was a bit skeptical. I really enjoyed the free trial. Its a great way to immerse yourself into the French language. I went ahead and bought all three levels! So far I am still in the early stages of level one but everything is going smoothly. I can't wait to use what I have learnt when I go to France to visit my boyfriend.

Great so far. It treats you more like an adult than Rosetta Stone. I never liked the one-sided approach in Rosetta Stone that I had to guess at what they were trying to teach you from 4 pictures rather than just telling you some basic concepts as well as some of the culture. It looks like I will get that with Rocket Languages but didn't with Rosetta Stone. So, Rocket Languages treats you like an adult. Reasonably priced.

Rocket French is the only course I have tried that succeeds in getting you talking. Many courses can teach you the basics as you sit in a class and take your turn to say something, or do online exercises but you still get tongue tied the second you try to use it in real life. Rocket French can get you past that.

I have 17 years in London with a French wife learning french on and off, and now live in France so need to use it. Learning a language in my opinion requires three things in general order (but even better if done in parallel) 1. A strong base of grammar and vocabulary to have something to work with 2. Speaking the language out loud to get into the habit of using it correctly without reflection 3. Moving to the country and chucking yourself in the deep end to expand and refine. Most courses can do 1, only you can do 3, but in my opinion after many years of french study rocket french is the only one that does 2 with depth and substance. Speaking correctly is also important, as although I have been speaking rough french for years that gets me by in family gatherings, only in doing the saying then writing that you really start nailing the articles and gender etc to really move forward.

Good blend of useful phrases, vocabulary, cultural lessons, and written lessons. Best variety of learning tools (audio, student recorded audio vs example, interactive tests, reading, etc...) compared to what I've seen in Rosetta Stone or Pimsleur. No pressure 6 day trial gives you a good opportunity to preview the product. Details of what you receive a little confusing and the price is borderline high although competitive. Will be up to individual if you get your money's worth but the substance is there to take advantage.

It is a very good platform for people to learn French easily.

was great. was cool. was totally tubular. was gut.

Too many keystrokes, should be simplified and incorporated into the keyboard, not the mouse.
Instructor voice and script too "hokey".
Prompts "P-F, S-I" should be much larger and should appear below the microphone icon. Also they should have been mentioned in the "how to use" video.

I've only just started my course and am on module 1. However I am really enjoying it and find the course much better than a short course I did recently. I find it a much better course for teaching modern conversational German. As the previous one was more academic. I would prefer if the mobile app was tweaked so that the screen remained always on and not slept while being used in the car. That aside I can highly recommend the course however.
