Rocket Chinese Reviews

this is the first course that le me understand in a easy way the chinese language. I'm happy in learning a new language and Rocketlanguage make all easy.
i wish to continue to improve and I`m sure I will do that thanks to this fantastic course.

I'm currently only halfway through the second lesson, but it seems good so far. You should be aware that the main reason I'm writing this review, is because they'll give me $10 cash back if I do.

Note that there are a lot of special offers, and the one they email you may not be the best one available at the time. Also, if you're paying by credit card, and you're not in the US, you will probably get a better deal if you pay in USD, and let your bank do the currency conversion, instead of taking the option to pay in your local currency.

Honestly though, it does seem pretty good so far, and seems to be very good value.

Impressive site layout and audio pronunciation of words and phrases. Downloadable lessons are a real plus and are great for training on the go or while working out or riding my bike. The survival kit is a real bonus for focusing on specific areas or themes. Rocket will be a definitely be "value-added" in helping me to prepare for my move to Shanghai next year.

I like to learn Chinese online with Rocket Chinese. Because here are very interesting topics and lessons, has possibilities to see and to read the phrases that are frequently used in everyday life and can to hear very clear pronunciation of native speakers.

On the plus side, the website is attractive and functions well. The interactive lessons are well-structured and nicely done. I appreciate that they make continued improvements, such as the addition of Write It in the testing sections. Also appreciate that both sound and text are downloadable and the website allows you to listen to only the parts of the lessons you want. I haven't taken advantage of any "social" features like the Forum but I appreciate that Rocket tries to foster a community. The "points" system is an interesting idea.

On the downside, I think there's too much repetition of non-essential vocabulary in the testing sections (I really don't think lesson or unit are words to keep hammering me with). I also think built-in flashcards linked to My Vocabulary would be nice or perhaps automated flashcards for each section. It's also not clear the sequencing of the lessons. This is partially intentional but you'll find yourself tested on material you haven't seen if you don't move across all the lesson types. That said, I've given feedback to the team on many points and they've nearly always been responsive and eager to help and take feedback.

I find the content of each lesson is very practical and not too overwhelming. I enjoy being able to re-listen as many times as I like and to compare my voice to a native speaker. I also like the fact that the Chinese script is included every time. The cultural tips are incredibly useful and interesting. The writing section is great where you can watch every stroke being written. It includes all aspects needed to learn a language. Thank you Rocket Languages!

I am chinese and i always wanted to learn chinese all my life. I speak chinese at home with my family. They love this new website that my parents found. I'm learning a lot from this website. Thanks a lot to the founders.!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well hello rocket languages is so cool because it is now teaching me some important knowledge in French also after learning French l want to learn German on this website after learning German l learned already 4 languages then l would learn all the languages

There are some assumptions made when talking about time and date (like understanding how to count first could help). It's great to force us into speaking the language a lot. I like how the conversations get longer and one new word is added.

this website is verry interesting,i loved it because i find many lessons helping me develop the language that i am learning in hawassa university ,there is pinyin,character style,pronounsation,it has dictionary...etc
