Overall I enjoyed the lessons. There were times when the humor was much needed and other times when it was annoying. Also, there are numerous grammatical and audio mistakes, but not enough to impact learning... More

Rocket Languages is the best language teaching thing ever!!! I have never enjoyed learning another language so much. I have only recently started and I can talk quite well in German. People ask me all the time, "how do you do it??" I say, "Rocket Languages... More

I moved to Austria four years ago, and I could not have been so successful without Rocket German! Rocket German helped me launch my German language career in Austria. Using only Rocket German as my primary guide, I was able to get around quite comfortably using the basic phrases I had learned... More

I teach martial arts and travel to Japan quite often. I've found Rocket Japanese to be excellent although I've been a bit slow and have breaks from it. But it's so easy to do a quick revision to get back on track... More

So far my experience with Rocket has been very positive. Being able to remember even half of what I learned a couple days ago shocked me. Most languages I have attempted to learn result in me forgetting over 90% of the vocabulary I have learned after a short period of time... More

Rocket German is one part of my tools to learn German. What I like about Rocket German is "throwing" you into the language and having to speak real German in real conversations. I really like the new dashboard, it makes it much easier to follow my progress and have gone back to pickup those areas I missed or was weak in. More

Good and easy. Studying for an A1 German exam to get a German Visa. I do have some German experience which does help but everything is coming back quickly thanks to this program! The native speaking English mixed with German makes it a lot easier to learn in my opinion! More

It is a usefull language learning system, I especially like the MP3 files, however I have spotted a few problems with the website, these are: Unit = 2.11 the website says metro = Underground however it Should be = metro = meter & Underground = metropolitan Its ok to put in names & so not translate them - But not ok to say a name is a translation when it is not...

I have liked the many repetitions and work on pronunciation. The lessons are about the right length to keep up. It is good that each stretches your knowledge by adding more words and phrases to build up vocabulary... More

Rocket German is a very addicting (in a good way) course! It is no effort at all to do the lessons. My son, who completed two years of high school German and three years of college German can't believe how fast I've gotten the point of being able to have a conversation with him... More

Like anything else, with practice, I see progress. Plus, I enjoy the conversational parts very much - they are not dry and boring like other programs I have used! Each lesson is categorized in a logical way, and as progress is made, previous terms are brought up again, which helps reinforce the vocabulary and usage. More

I have not yet progressed very far into the course, but for as far as I have gone, Rocket compares favorably with Pimsleur courses I have used. I like the available transcripts and computer material. Being able to actually see the words helps a great deal in getting the pronunciation down faster correctly... More

The audio lessons are interesting and keep your attention unlike other audio programs. The exercises and transcripts are very helpful for reinforcing the German I am learning from the audio clips. I like how you can mark vocabulary words that you still need work on and how you can review them later from the website... More

Rocket German is a great German learning course. The lessons cover the most common life situations, although sometimes more examples of different variations of the same situation would be nice. I like that there are two indicators how well you know a certain lesson ("hear it", "learn it"), which is useful for tracking to your progress. More
