Rocket Languages Reviews

I'm just getting started with Rocket Languages. I have some previous Spanish language experience in schools and travel. So far the course is helping to bring back some core skills (again, just getting started) and vocabulary. I’m happy with the structure and cadence of introducing new words and concepts. The extra classes are very helpful.

I'm steadily increasing my knowledge of French. I like being able to just jump into where I left off and do 10 to 20 minutes of study whenever I feel like it.

So far I find the exercises very interesting and it helps me reinforce the French phrases that I am learning. Being able to record myself practicing the phrases are very good. I get to hear and compare it with what they are saying. The practical application of the phrases and the injection of introducing the culture in France was really good to. I find learning more digestible and less stressful.

I love this course. It's so easy and understand I think if you are deaf I recommend. The history on it helps understand then just learning ASL, but the rich history helps more than signing. I love it and you should too.

Nice conversation planned especially for beginner level .

Just started but I like it! The lessons being based on conversations is a nice feature.

the lessons are really, but I would prefer more time left in the intro to repeat the sentence after Claire, instead of that time used to make "jokes" by Martin

Honest review

The voice recognition could use some work, but it's fun to use and definitely gets you speaking out loud. I haven't really seen any features offered yet that's worth the price. I'm basing that off of what's offered for free on the internet already.

Another feature though that deserves praise is the 'Play as' feature where you take the role of someone in a conversation. It's honestly a 5 star feature on its own.

Thinking about this in depth is making me realize how much is actually offered and how much I'm paying for it... I could only think of a couple good things (and they're basically the same thing). I can't recommend this to a friend while I'm thinking about discontinuing use of it myself. Wow

I'm a very senior person trying to learn Russian, it's not easy, however am really enjoying the challenge.
The course is well set up and quite intuitive, the interactive reviewing system is excellent.
I'm a little surprised there is not a forum attached to the course/web site to allow students to exchange thoughts and perhaps practice what they have learned.

I'm very happy with the format and tools provided. It's always good to approach learning from multiple angle, and super important in language learning to have conversations. Rocket is providing all these things. The one thing I don't like is that the early lessons are teaching the "familiar" form of you, and not teaching the "formal" at all. I'm learning for the sake of speaking to my father's caregiver, and I know she prefers Usted. I've also gotten horrible stares when I accidentally used familiar conjugation when trying to practice Spanish with Spanish speaking acquaintances. I know there are places that don't use the formal, but in places that do, I believe survival Spanish (ordering from a menu, etc) would be much better used with the formal, which is always respectful with people you don't know. And would be understood as meaning to be respectful even in places it's not commonly used.
