The learning is okay, but for students I think it would be more fun for them if there were more game-like qualities. Not so much it turns into a video game, but just enough to make students have fun during it.

Hi Henry, thank you for your review. While our courses are focused on in-depth and comprehensive linguistic content, we understand that gamification can be a powerful motivator in learning. As such, your suggestion has been passed on to the Product Development team, who will take it into consideration. All the best with your Spanish learning journey!
This is a very good site for learning English. Thanks

Sugoi to listen to our own voice... A little too quick with the kanji...

Hi Tiana, thank you for leaving a review. It's awesome to hear that you are finding the Rocket Spanish content straightforward and easy to understand. We wish you all the best with your Spanish language-learning journey!
The lessons are far too long. I like to finish a lesson in one sitting but they are so long, it's impossible. I groan when I see the flashcards with 70 entries. There is no sense of accomplishment. I tend to avoid starting lessons because it seems like drudgery trying to get through them and that isn't a good way to learn. So yes , I am disappointed in my purchase. I had high hopes . I had previously done the 'Spanish with Paul' lessons. They had they're shortcomings too but I felt the lessons were a better length and I stuck with them and learned a lot more.

Hi Rick, thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that you are finding the lessons too long. Here at Rocket Languages we want to ensure that all our linguistic content is comprehensive and in-depth, but we are also aware that motivation and a sense of accomplishment is critical to learning. As such, your suggestion regarding the flashcards has been passed on to our Product Development team. In the meantime, you might have a better experience with our more interactive reinforcement activities like "Hear It! Say It!" All the best with your Spanish language learning!
After stopping for a while, I recently picked up this course again, and wow, have I learned a lot in such a short period of time. Even though my native language (Mandarin/Cantonese) is more similar to Japanese than a lot of languages, the language is still quite difficult to learn. However, it was easy to start again because everything about this website was very easy, efficient, and satisfying to use. Overall, this is a very underrated language learning tool. :)

Hi Jason, thank you for your review. It's great that you can see yourself making such clear progress in a short amount of time and finding that the Japanese course is intuitive and easy to follow. Happy learning!
It is a great app to use for quick and easy learning of a new language. I wish, however, that the price was a little better for students.

Hi Gray, thank you for leaving a review. It's awesome to hear that you're finding Rocket Italian to be a valuable tool for picking up the language. Although the price may be a barrier for students, it is worth noting that unlike many other subscription based services we offer full lifetime access to the course and all updates for one payment (or six instalments). This allows you to use the course indefinitely. All the best with your Italian language-learning journey!
I love the Rocket Languages course. I am learning a lot.

Hi Patricia, it's awesome to hear that you are enjoying the Rocket English course. All the best with your English language-learning journey!
I used to be very impressed by rocketfrench, but there are a lot of things that I don't agree with anymore after almost two years of using it.
The good:
1. Listening to native speakers, repeating it, comparing it, having the scripted conversations - all that is good for pronunciation and I enjoy that.
2. there is a structure
The bad:
1. Updates that feel like beta-versions -> I did not pay to be a beta tester
2. The translation approach is outdated and will not lead to fluency.
3. The translation approach often does not make sense in the grammar chapters.
hints as to which version of multiple options to use are literal translations instead of contextual hints, that would lead to better understanding of the concepts underneath.
4. As in many other courses it is mostly very formal written french that you learn, sometimes some "real spoken french" is mixed in and that mix does not make much sense as it mixes different "registers" like formal, neutral, familiar french.
Most upsetting are the updates, that change the programm and not always for the better.
If it were always changes for the better, improving things and giving more options, I would be fine with that.
But sometimes things are being taken away and taking things away from customers is not a good idea.
That is not a problem for new customers, cause they are not missing anything.
But it is a problem for me as a user of almost two years and I don't have what I bought anymore.
