Rocket Languages Reviews

It took me a long time to get going due to a hectic schedule. Really like the package, and the considerable thought put behind understanding the students' mind. The audio quality is excellent, the language script in devanagari is well done. Nice package.

After just a couple weeks using Rocket Languages I have learned how to start conversations, although carrying on is still a little difficult (practice makes perfect). I highly recommend repeating the first couple lessons until you get them memorized. Rocket Languages has put a lot of great material which helps anyone learn quickly and effectively. I almost gave up on learning Spanish, but once I found Rocket Languages it was a game changer. The usability and interactive audio lessons far outweighs the cost. They made this fully immersive with the 3 major senses of learning; through sight, sound, and speech. All three together make this a solid learning system. Good job Rocket Languages!

I've had Rocket German German since 2009, and think it's excellent.

Being able to sit on the train, listening to the German *and* English being spoken, often with interesting explanations, it's been really useful.

Excellent value for money, and I have recommended it to other ex-pats who, like me, have moved to Zurich.

I have tried them all (Rosetta, Pimsleur, Duolingo) and I must admit that this program does the best job of teaching Italian. The reason is simple -- repetition. As a former teacher, I believe in repetition. Too many programs give you a lesson but do not reinforce it. Rocket does. Another plus is the response to my feedback. If I have a problem, I get a response within a day (two at most). Most programs don't bother to respond at all. Another plus is the detailed lesson given at the beginning of the section. If you really want to learn the "ins" and "outs" of the language, the explanations are there for you. All you have to do is read and absorb. Some programs (I won't mention names) never bother to explain anything; they just expect you to learn on your own. If you wonder why I have only given 4 stars for would I buy again, it is because I am not that young and don't think I'll be trying another language. If I do, it will be Rocket. Oh, one more plus -- the one-time price. Yea!

I thought that rocket languages for Arabic was good for what it is. Nothing can substitute actual immersion in the language with live native speakers, but shy of that, rocket languages helps one who has a busy full time schedule like me, to squeeze in a few minutes of Arabic every day here and there. I like the fact that the speakers are native and the grammar is explained explicitly, but I don't like some of the interfaces, and it gets a bit annoying how much chatter there is compared to actual Arabic during the audiotapes. But all in all, I thought it was quite effective and fun.

Rocket French is truly a comprehensive course. The lessons are clear and understandable and the drills are excellent. Besides that, there are so many ancillary features that really enhance the learning experience. I recommend this to anyone who wants to learn French at home. It takes work, but you get out what you put into it.

It's a little simplistic at times - I like to delve further into grammar to understand why a phrase is as it is rather than just learning it by rote - but the practice has definitely made a difference to my understanding and it's good to have some structure to my learning , living in an area where I can't access any physical classes. The speaking and writing practice are most useful, and give me something I absolutely can't get from the more advanced text book I use in tandem with Rocket Hindi. I would consider signing up for another language if my financial situation improved - it's decent value for money.

I had to buy it in English, in French and in the future, in German... It was a little bit sour to pay. But the course is good. I am recommending to my friends already and my wife is also enjoying it .

This course of studies is undoubtedly the best that I have come across regarding distant learning. I can recommend rocket languages without any hesitation to anyone who wants to learn a foreign language .Congratulations kenny and Siaka over your teaching skill! (O JOZU DES NE!)

I recommend this to anyone who would like to learn a new language fast and easy and on their own time. My experience has been great, learning when I want and how I want. Some days I focus on vocabulary and other days I just listen to the audio. This program is definitely a good way to get started with a language but real mastery will come from using the new language in the outside world but I believe this program can really help you achieve this.
