Find out what actual users have to say about our courses through their Rocket Languages reviews.
I liked using the program during the 6-day trial, but I am a little upset. I started to purchase the premium package, but I changed my mind. I closed the purchase window before finalizing the purchase. However, Rocket Languages billed my credit card anyway. Now I will have to dispute this as an unauthorized charge.
Lessons are well organized and comprehensive for the particular subject. I really like the listen and record feature, it helps tremendously with correct pronunciation. Also, with the writing element, you are getting total immersion in the language.
Too early for a review, I'm still doing the six day trial. The audio lessons are good but I'm finding the rest of the site difficult to navigate. That will most likely improve with practice.
My reason for wanting to learn Spanish is that I have a grandaughter who is just six months old. Her Father, my son, will talk to her only in English and her Mother, who is fluent in both languages, will speak only Spanish. People have told me that infants and older people learn languages at about the same rate so I'm going to see how well I can keep up with her. (Of course, already being an English speaker, I'm starting with a significant advantage).
This is an Awesome piece of software, it works on all computers, including Linux, Mac, and Windows. I love it because I can use it anywhere, and almost anytime. Inshallah, I will learn Arabic very quickly.
I loved this program. I am an advanced French student. I have various (DELF) diplomas in French. I wanted a course that would help me with my pronunciation of French and this was the ideal program. The presenter's were engaging and fun to listen to. They read the dialogue at full speed at first then slowly. I liked that they read it slowly so that you could follow along and mimic their pronunciation.
I found the cost a bit expensive, but it was much cheaper in comparison with other programs. I would like if they had other programs besides the 3 levels in French, so that I could continue using the course.
It is helping me to brush up on my French in an easy and fun way. It is more interactive than reading from a text book. I hoping to put what I have learned into practice when my husband and I visit Paris later in the year.
Rocket Languages is amazing. I learn every day and just love being on the site. It allows me to branch out both mentally and culturally. I use rocket languages through my library but I've been looking at the price and find it rather alarming.
I have so many things to say about Rocket Chinese I don't know where to start. How about the beginning...
I have been interested in learning Chinese for a year now. I have five programs, three I obtained for free and two I paid for. Of the three I found for free, one came from my local library, I didn't feel bad about making a copy because they are public domain, two I downloaded from the Internet and there was no charge.
They are all good programs, I know because I am very critical and skeptical due to the numbers of programs available, I felt I could go broke trying to find a good teaching program for learning Chinese. Of the two programs that I bought one was from a University and one is the Rocket Chinese language course.
The one from the University is good, but I expected much more form a University language course and it is no where near as comprehensive as Rocket Chinese, but to keep things honest, I paid less for the University course.
I am very happy with the course and feel that i am retaining a lot of words and pronunciation learned. I am certainly glad that the material is up-to-date and has native speakers of both sexes so you can not only hear how you need to say it but how others might respond.
It is an interesting way to learn a languge. Very good to listen to people who speak. It is very realistic and natual. The second time you listen it is easy to remember the words again. I hope I will improve my spanish soon. The use of ipad will do it easy to practice every day, at home, on the bus and when I am walking.
