This course is helping my brother and I to learn Spanish. Even though we were raised on the US/Mexico border, we didn't have enough instruction to become fluent. So, here we are again, many years later, trying again. I appreciate that this program is very thorough, has excellent help on each section along the way. Thank you, Rocket Spanish!

We’re thrilled that Rocket Spanish is supporting both you and your brother in learning Spanish, Linda. Keep up the great work!
I really enjoy the lessons and the multiple ways the information is reinforced - listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
However, there are two major issues for me.
First, each lesson begins with a video tutorial. I have an audio processing disability - it's hard for me to comprehend spoken words in a conversation or tutorial. My learning style is reading/writing, so I really need to be able read the transcript of the tutorials. The lessons aren't an issue because the spoken parts are short - no more than a sentence at a time . And I can replay it as often as I need to.
Second, the top right has a leaderboard, daily points, and a streak. Even though I can progress at my own pace, the presence of these statistics sets a competitive undertone that makes it stressful. I realize a lot of people like that, but there should be an option to disable it for those who don't.

We’re glad to hear that the lessons’ varied approaches are supporting your Spanish learning, Joe.

As for motivational features like the leaderboard, you can turn this off in your profile settings. And if anything else comes up—or if there are other features you feel would better support your learning—we’d love to hear your thoughts. We’re always open to suggestions.
I did not deal with customer services so cannot comment.
I find the lessons long, but I can spend as long as I need to be sure I get it.
In addition, I like the fact that you can reset assignments and try them over and over.
Response from Rocket Languages
We’re glad to hear you enjoy the flexibility of resetting the activities and taking the time you need to master each lesson, Mary. Repetition is a key part of language learning, and it’s great that you’re making the most of it!
I just finished the first lesson and really enjoyed it. I was able to practice speaking and enjoyed having to write the words in Italian. That helped to reinforce pronunciation.
I had a discount code in order to purchase, otherwise, it would have been out of my price range.
Response from Rocket Languages
Thank you for your thoughtful review, Erin! We’re delighted that the speaking and writing exercises helped reinforce your pronunciation right from the first lesson. Best of luck as you continue learning Italian!
Have made more progress with Rocket French in a few weeks than I did in many months of trying Duolingo. I really like the structured approach and the mix of learning styles within each module. Would highly recommend
Response from Rocket Languages
That’s wonderful to hear, Steven; thank you for sharing! We’re glad the structured approach and comprehensive variety of learning activities are helping you make fast progress. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’re excited to be part of your French learning journey.
This is an amazing learning platform for beginners who are learning the German language. My first experience has been really great!
Response from Rocket Languages
Thank you so much, Reno! We’re thrilled to hear that your first experience with Rocket German has been a great one. Wishing you continued success as you build confidence and progress with the language!
I kind of like the method. Basically you repeat the same stuff over and over again until it gets stuck in your brain. The only issue I have had so far is with the voice recording system. A couple of times it did not work properly. Other than that thumbs up so far
Response from Rocket Languages
We’re glad the comprehensive approach is helping things stick, Eusebio. We appreciate you mentioning the voice recording issue as well. While it generally works reliably, occasional device or setting issues can occur, and our support team is always happy to help; reach out to them anytime at [email protected]. Thanks for the thumbs up, and keep up the great work!

I like that it is very interactive. I also like that it incorporates all 4 parts of language learning.
