Rocket Languages Reviews

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.

I find Alessando’s dumbing down side comments unnecessary and interrupts concentration. Childish, tedious and unprofessional. Thank you.

I think that it is a very helpful place to start if you are just starting to learn Korean, or if you just want to learn the basics to get you trough if you are going to visit Korea. I like how they actually test you and you can choose between Easy, Medium, and Hard in the Rocket Record. I find this very helpful since the harder it makes it for you to pronounce it well the better off you are, I myself have gone for the medium not sure if Hard is for me, I struggle a little in the medium level so I´ll probably use it on that level for a while.

Rocket Languages is a wonderful tool for everyone who wants to expand their vocabulary in other languages. I personally have been taking Spanish and like my life motto, "I regret nothing." I would recommend Rocket Languages to anyone who needs to learn a different language for school or for pleasure.

I love Rocket Languages!!!! keep up the good work :)

The only complaint that i have is that there are no tests or quizzes and that kind of makes me sad because i want to know where i am at at an academic level and i don't know how to do that with out a test or a quiz

I used Rocket Italian for several years and the used several other language apps, however, none were as complete as Rocker Italian. Also, with the recent changes to the Rocker Italian format, I feel more comfortable knowing that it is using the CEFR format.

Very informative, teach you the authentic Spanish accent according to location
I have life time membership and recommend it for any one.
I like the new iPhone app, I can practice any where. It emphasize on pronunciation the right way

For the price this is a very good program and the interactive sections are easy to understand. I've used other online programs and so far this one is the best. My main dissatisfaction with it has to do with the organization of the information presented. After the self study sections it would make sense to use the new vocabulary and/or concepts presented during the interactive lessons. For example: There's an entire lesson dealing with the weather but no where in the succeeding interactive lessons is there any discussion of weather. When vocabulary is not used, it's easily forgotten. And you end up with little sense of how to include it in conversation. Also, when new grammatical concepts are introduced in the interactive lessons there isn't always a discussion of the concept. Examples: (1) Nel, nella, negli are presented in unit 4. It's a completely new group of prepositional phrases, but there's no explanation. (2) When nouns ending in E are pluralized, the ending is always i (as in the masculine) regardless of whether the noun is masculine or feminine. I purchased an Italian grammar book and was able to clear up my confusion around this, but it should have been mentioned in one of the lessons where a plural feminine noun ended in an i. These are just the most recent issues of this kind I've encountered. There are more. So, more thought regarding organization and presentation would be warranted.

Rocket French is an excellent product. My greatest struggle (to date) is understanding spoken French. Rocket French does a much better job with this than other platforms. I also really like the lifetime ownership.

Something to improve is the voice recognition. It doesn't work all that well, and is often frustrating. Other than that, great product.

Really GREAT product!

I am using Rocket French on an Apple Macbook Pro with the Google Chrome Browser.

I am really enjoying the method and I am learning at a fast pace. However, there are a few minor issues that would improve the experience :
Sometimes when I playback the recording of my speech it is distorted.
When the sentence spoken by Rocket is very fast, it sometimes does not recognise any part of my recorded speech if I repeat it at a slower pace.
The Flash Cards ratings allow you to put what you think is the rating - Very subjective and therefore of no real value.
