Rocket Languages will really help you with learning a new language, its nice and simple, and you can go at your own pace. The tests are really helpful and having the interactive audio lessons is easy as well. The site also has interesting things such as myvocab and you are able to highlight words for quicker use to see the definition.

I enjoy refreshing my spanish with Rocket Spanish, and find that I am gaining confidence and understanding by practicing daily with their tools. At times I do feel like lessons move very quickly and I end up reviewing the same lessons over and over again. I also wish the audio recordings gave me more time to add my response.I like the dashboard and the daily goals, they keep me motivated to keep practicing. I hope that overtime my spanish will improve!

I like the lessons so far, but I have a couple nits to pick. 1) The recording volume is very low even when set to max. I have to get very close to my mic, and then I get big spikes. 2) When Mauricio pronounces phrases, he emphasizes one syllable the first time and a different syllable the next time. How am I supposed to know which way is right?

- dialogue very clear
- good variety of topics in lessons
- maybe a touch over priced
- lesson review sections do not always save for me at the first time of trying
- cultural elements very interesting

I Appreciate the desire to keep updating and adding to the service

Overall, I'm very satisfied with the product and approach so far, particularly coming from 7 months of Duolingo. It is a significant upgrade in experience over Duolingo. It has the right balance of drill and practice and grammar fundamentals, in the context of a conversation-driven learning style. It seems natural and well thought out. I truly appreciate that I can skip what I want in deference to things I already know. I know I will soon get to things I will not be able to skim or skip and I look forward to that. The "say it" element of the structure is excellent. It is forcing me to speak, which is exactly what Duolingo does not do well. I have lots of words and lots of conjugations, but on the spot I am like a deer in the headlights, and Rocket's style forces you to just "talk", mistakes and all, which is great. The speed and clarity of the voice actors is excellent and it makes listening easy and approachable. The rolling text approach on screen is great, as I can look at the scroll when I want to and look away (to test myself better) when I don't want to.

A couple of constructive things to say.

Ahlan beekum, hello everyone. Rocket Arabic is a pretty great tool, gets you stuck right into learning all the relevant phrases straight away so you can begin communicating as soon as you feel comfortable. Would recommend to anyone willing to learn quickly and effectively.

The strengths: - The program is mainly focused on learning useful German from the beginning, familiarising the user with common interactions they might have early on.
- The podcasts are entertaining and stop the learning process from becoming boring.
- Easily recommendable, and from what I have heard from reviews of the product, Rocket Languages seem to care about improvements.

The weaknesses: I might be wrong on this, but I feel that a basic explanation of conjugations comes too late, and at first you are forced to entirely learn new words and not to figure out that a lot of different words are just conjugations of one word. For me, I was already familiar with German so this wasn't a problem. I would then recommend to anyone who is using this product and is completely new to German, to learn about basic sentence structure and conjugations from other sources to aid this course.

Rocket language courses are interesting and fun with what seems like a common learning template for all their courses. I purchased several Rocket language courses but they are just the elementary level. I would purchase higher level courses if there were better incentives or deals.

Hello everybody,

Being an enthusiastic of languages, I have just started learning French, taking profit of my holidays on August. I already learned other languages online (like Chinese) but my first impression of this Rocket French site is awesome. The more of it, the step-by-step guide for each lesson and the chance to study at whatever time I choose. That give me some freedom and let me put efforts when I really have time. I am considering buy the premium subscription but firstly I would like to move on my first lessons to check that everything can fit with my time schedule when I go back to work.
