Rocket Languages Reviews

Amazing experience learning italian with this program. I suggest all the people to have this experience.

bien, falta algo de ejercicios y algunos temas que apoyen mejor

Pros:
+good quality audio and content
+many different exercises to practice
+audio recognition exercises
+daily rank is very motivating

Cons:
-pricing is high due to exchange rate (PLN/USD)
-Mobile app UI (android) is not well designed (too small icons; far away buttons; a lot empty space; hand becomes quickly tiered from jumping from record icon to easy/medium/hard button)
-a little too much English in recordings

Ideas:
-bigger buttons; small mobile app redesign
-access to recording transcript (more than just one sentence at a time)
-accumulation of all flashcards and other exercise into one big place to exercise what I already should know;

Es simplemente perfecto! Me encanta la función donde puedes hablar y te reconoce la voz perfectamente, no todas las aplicaciones cuentan con eso. Es muy buen precio, pero lamentablemente no me tengo la oportunidad para comprarlo por mi estado económico. えーと~ありがとうございます！

Have tried quite a few other online language courses. Find the rocket course to the most fun, comprehensive and user friendly

It is interactive how the lessons go. Unfortunately, it is at least to say "expensive".

It was okay. Experience was not too great due to microphone issue that I need to shout just to be heard by the software which leads to frustration in learning. Would recommend to travelers who are into rote learning. Opinion on buying again and recommending to a friend may change once I have completed the courses.

Lesson 1.7 is about to do me in. I simply cannot understand it when they're saying such long sentences and speaking so rapidly. Then again, I got made fun of once in the 90's Mexico when I said cuatro because I said it so slowly. I'm from the South. I speak English slowly and damned sure can't speak Spanish that fast. I also can't remember all those words and phrases. There were a lot of them in this lesson!

Rocket Chinese is definitely good value for money because the course appears to continue until you finish it at your own pace. You can take a break and come back to it no matter the timescale and for this reason, it gets a 5/5. I thought the pricing was perhaps a little expensive but still worth it because many other Chinese apps lose out on subscriptions because after a year you don't get any more time and sometimes it can take a while to get into learning Chinese. One can be enthusiastic to begin with and then realise they are not quite ready to learn it within a year's limited period and money wasted. This happened to me with Rocket Chinese, when I subscribed, after half a year, I was not really ready and lost interest and was worried I might lose my money. Well now I'm ready to learn and very enthusiastic and it took me years before it started to make sense and I'm now ready to absorb the teaching. I would definitely recommend Rocket Chinese for the reasons I stated. Other Chinese apps like Chairman Bao etc are excellent but are just way too expensive for just a year's subscription and make it not worth purchasing no matter how good it is.

Rocket Italian is well designed to help develop both conversational Italian and an understanding of grammar and syntax. My only complaint is that the software sometimes has glitches as it speaks or listens, and doesn't always hear what you say, even when you're saying it correctly. I have tested this both with computer mic and speakers, and with headphones and dedicated lavalier mic.
