Excellent interactive program that allows an individual to learn at their own pace.
I tried Rosetta Stone, which I found hard to learn with. I tried Duolingo, which seemed easy at first, but then felt like I was just memorizing a bunch of phrases. I am now using Rocket Spanish and have finally found the right product. I appreciate how they concentrate on a limited number of words per lesson and have you really work with them to feel fairly confident before moving on to the next lesson and set of new words. I am only a few weeks into it but would recommend this program to anyone wanting to learn the basics of a new language.
I just purchased Rocket Spanish Travelogue, and even though I still consider myself in the high beginner stage, I find it incredibly helpful as it is very advanced, and it has given me a little 'trick' to help me study more with less frustration.
I start my Rocket study time spending 15 minutes or more working on the Travelogue series first, attacking the sentences bit by bit, listening and recording them several times, toggling the recording difficulty level until I am satisfied that I can say even ONE of the advanced sentences all the way through.
Then I go back to my regular studies in Rocket Spanish, at the level where I actually belong, and I feel like I am picking up the material much faster and with more ease. The advanced level of Travelogue is hard, but the story is fun and keeps me engaged, so I want to keep working at it. Then my regular level feels like a reward for getting through a few sentences.
This approach may not be for everyone, but I am jazzed at how much it is pushing me along, and I am so glad I purchased it.
Thank you Rocket Team for this awesome addition!
It would be helpful for a quick reference vertical bar on the left for key word reference related to that page.
For example presently when doing flashcards and beyond it is an effort to scroll way back up the page to find the correct words.

Hi Jason. Funnily enough this is exactly what we are rolling out within the next 2-3 weeks!
Great Spanish course! I appreciate the ability to move at my own pace. Spanish courses in high school were adversely affected by students who were not motivated to learn Spanish. As a result, it was an inefficient use of time. It also required my attendance miles from where I lived. My Spanish classes from Rocket Languages are mostly in my living room and they are conducted whenever I decide class should be in session. The software for Rocket Language Spanish is also effective on my iPhone and I found the phone version to be very user friendly.
In college, the Spanish classes moved too fast, and frankly, I never could catch up. I never had time to go back and sufficiently learn a topic as "the class" was moving at the speed that the professor determined was necessary. That speed was always faster than what I could handle. With Rocket Language Spanish, I can pause the pace of a chapter and stay on a topic which I am having difficulty with, such as a pronunciation, and then when I am satisfied I have grasped the topic as best as I can, I can then return to complete the rest of the chapter. Fantastic! You can't do that in a group class.
I also enjoy the constant (and repeatable) mini phonetic prompts that accompany all lessons.
THAT ROCKET LANGUAGE TOOLS OR NICHE IS SOMETHING SPECTACULAR AND VERY GOOD
Tried the 7 day free trial, didn't work very well so not confident to purchase ,

Hi Julie - I am sorry to hear that it wasn't for you. If there was a technical issue then please contact customer support!
Travelogues is a welcome extension of Rocket Spanish Platinum and, as a previous user of Rocket Spanish Premium and Platinum, I've been waiting for a newer advanced edition from them for a few years.
Rocket Spanish is, by far, the best foreign languages program that I have used.
The prices of their programs have been better or, at the very least, comparable to others.
And, even better and unlike the others, they WILL allow you total access to their learning material for as long as you like.
No 1 year expiration dates. Which was a big selling point.
Hopefully, by the time people finish their Travelogue lessons, they'll have produced another program for even more advanced students.
Because I'm sure that others would make the purchase just as I would.
Very easy to use and flexible to different learning styles. I like the audio lessons because they contain just the right amount of new material without being too long. The price you pay for each package is very good for what you get in return.
i love it i can't wait to be able to speak spanish with my family!!!!
