Just unsure about the cost...

It's great to hear that you are enjoying the course so far. We are currently running a New Year's sale so make sure to take a look at that to see if the pricing suits you better. All the best!
Estupendo. Voy a mi marcha. Está muy bien para el autoaprendizaje, pero hay que repasar.

Thank you for your review. Keep up the good work!
As someone who already has rudimentary level of Mandarin, I really enjoy the nuanced terms and learning a new word/term everyday.

Great to hear you are enjoying the course, Irene. We wish you all the best!
This is a review of Rocket Korean. I have found Rocket German Level 3 to be useful, and would recommend it, but I am very disappointed with Rocket Korean.
I am 71 and in the last few years I have learnt five European languages to a good conversational level. I began to learn Korean a few months ago and have used two well known audio courses, both of which I love, and I am working every day with an excellent app that specialises in Asian languages. So I was not a complete beginner when I started Rocket Korean, hoping it would help. Unfortunately, I have found it much too difficult, with too many new words introduced much too quickly with very little help and reinforcement.
If Rocket Korean had been my first attempt at language learning, I would have given up, believing that I was either too old, or not clever enough, since I find it impossible to retain any of the material covered in its lessons. Fortunately, from my experience with the other methods I know that I can learn languages, even Korean, if the material is presented in the right way.

Hi Martin, thank you for leaving a review. Korean can be quite a tricky language to learn for English speakers and the Korean team have tried to structure the course in a way that makes sense for English speakers. They will take a look at these early lessons again to try and make them clearer for our learners.
Good course, with a few issues. The module one sections 1.5 and up, dealing with articles, nouns, pronouns, etc. really need more development. There is a ton of important grammar in there but it is dealt with too lightly, and has way too much unfamiliar dialogue thrown in that is above level 1. This has been a major stumbling block for me. Level 2 hardly touches on these topics. It seems like Rocket dropped the ball on this section. I'll keep flipping back and forth between sections to try and make sense of it!

Hi Tony, thank you for your review. We understand that these concepts can be overwhelming for new learners and we appreciate your feedback on this. The Italian team will take another look at these lessons with your feedback in mind. All the best!
Very useful with complex (in a good way) descriptions and break downs of the language which other courses fail to do. Many resources as well which provides a good, comprehensive learning experience. Thanks Rocket Languages!

Overall, as someone who struggles to organise myself this course is perfect for me as the modules are very well structured and cover most aspects - listening, vocabulary, writing, grammar. I didn't purchase the course full price as there were discounts, making it even more worth it for the price especially as it is a lifetime subscription!
The classes are easy to follow and progressive, repetitions of vocabulary or grammar are very well incorporated in lessions so it's not annoying and it helps memorize better the information. The flashcards and other tools are also very helpful to complete the learning.
There are a few things I think can be improved though, like the application as it doesn't have some features that the browser version has (especially the saved vocabulary flash cards, which I personnally think are more useful on the go to revise). In the audio lessons, the dialogue transcript is in romanji which I think is good to start but it would be nice to have an option to change it to hiragana/kanji to get more used to it, or to slowly progressively get rid of the romanji as the lessons go on.
