Rocket Spanish Reviews

I dont like that the women speaks Spanish with an american accent.
I would like to learn correct pronunciation from natives, not american speaking with accent

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!

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

Enjoying the course so far. Think Ive finally found something, that I will stick with. Hope I will get to fluency! :)

Buggy on Ventura Safari, the most current MacOS and browser version.

Travelogue way too advanced and difficult to avoid.

Encountered user setup error that service and support quickly corrected.

So far greatly prefer Pimsleur and will likely invoke refund option.

Although I am loving the course, its not as easy as I initially thought it would be.

The conversations to listen, follow along with, and repeat after, are pretty good and based in some realistic contexts. They were fine. Also, some of the explanations during the text-based lessons were decent explanations. My main issues are with thereview, the study flashcards, listening and repeating, typing the sentences, then repeating them with only the translation. It felt less like trying to figure out what it was, and instead more on how much I could remember of the sentence or what I could memorize, and after about 45 days it gets old feeling like the only practice after the initial flashcards is memorization of sentences. It would be good to see some variations in those sentences for the flashcards, then the listening and repeat, then typing, then saying it. They could still use the same words maybe and have the overall vibe of the lesson, but when they're all the same exact sentences in the same exact order for four reviews in a row then it isn't really working towards figuring out what to say.

What I like about this course is that it does not expire. I bought it 4 years ago and it was there waiting for me when I picked up learning Spanish again after a two year hiatus. Normally, I don't like recorded Spanish lessons but I have to admit that it is helpful being able to listen to the speaker and then being able to listen to what I recorded in order to compare it with the original.

The pace of introducing new material is perfect. And it's all very conversational -- Close your eyes and absorb the conversation. It's great!

So far I like it much more than Pimsleur! It sticking with me a lot better.
