As someone that originally wanted to travel to Japan to learn the language, but lack the funds to make that dream a reality at this current time, This was the next best option!

I'm still only a couple lessons in to it but I'm already loving how well made and designed the lesson are and how easy and clear its been made to understand and learn, always thought learning a language would be daunting, but Rocket has made it fun and easier if nothing else. I hope that by the time, if not before I finish this course I would have saved enough funds to travel to japan, and I have no doubts that rocket will have set me up for successes for when I do.

Flaw & Suggestions

If I was to point out or suggest anything that would be a bonus and that I think the lack of is holding this back from being a Full 5* it would be the Vocab lesson having more of the Japanese that was in the audio lessons present as well.

its honestly a really good program but there should be a feature to let you slow down the audio down just a little, Korean has some completely different nuances so it hard to hear them sometimes when it so fast

Response from Rocket Languages

Thanks so much for your review, Sabian, it's much appreciated. Regarding slowing down the tutor audio, you can do that by clicking on the settings icon in the top right corner of your members area, and selecting a Tutor Audio Speed of either 0.75x or 0.5x. We hope that helps!

I purchased Rocket Japanese a few years ago and put it on the back burner. I've recently gotten my interest back up and have been practicing more. Not being an expert on language courses, I'm pretty happy with my purchase. The frustration I have is self inflicted as I have difficulty with sentence structure and conjugating verbs. That is no fault of the program, however. I just have to let go of established norms to understand better what I am trying to learn.

I enjoy Rocket Spanish because of the balanced approach to learning the language with a mix of spoken and written language. If there was an improvement I could make to the course it would be to make it easier to build group of flash cards for the words that are difficult for me to remember.

Living in quebec, I find some of the words or phrases taught in this course do not work well here. I wish there was a "quebecois" version of this app.

Response from Rocket Languages

Thanks so much for your review. Rocket French focuses mainly on the French spoken in France, rather than in Quebec, I'm sorry. While you will be understood using the French you've learned via our course, there will be regional differences/slang terms etc that you may be missing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact the customer support team.

I do like that the literal translation is also provided. It helps to understand how the sentence is structured. I often try to do it in my head but it's nice to the see it confirmed.

other language software teaches phrases, but Rocket teaches you the grammar to speak confidently.

I have used several online apps for learning French. Each has its drawbacks and some of these are significant (for example, the platforms which allow anyone to "correct" other learners' exercises or give opinions as to what is "correct").


I bought the full French Rocket package a few years ago and didn't really use it. I found the Americanism - especially the mixture of American and French in the dialogues - intensely irritating. I was using material which was wholly in French, so Rocket's approach seemed like taking several steps back. Rocket still has some work to do on the written parts of the course, but it remains significantly better than the other offerings I have used.


Meanwhile, my comprehension improved greatly but I realised my grasp of conjugation was poor. I came back to Rocket with the intention of practising tenses, voices and moods. Rocket has been great for that and for me (who loves books and has a number of French grammar exercise books) better than books.


I would recommend Rocket especially to those who work well with a traditional approach to grammar.
