So far, so great. Their method reinforces retention, while at the same time not boring. The interactions is wonderful, including audio downloads, quizzes, notes and more. This is the best I've used to date!
I am enjoying the opportunity to exercise different styles of learning (listening, speaking, and writing). However, I am frustrated that the transcripts don't always reflect what I have said. Listening to my voice proves that.
This is a wonderful place to gain a foothold in Spanish speaking, reading, and listening. So far I've learned a great deal of new vocabulary; my pronunciation has improved; and listening comprehension has improved as well. Not much more I can ask from the program. The supplementation I do outside of the program is input the words into Anki for review. Definitely not reviewing the entire submodule.
I am very happy with the app for learning conversational skills. I particularly value the practice and reinforcement elements.
I just started the advanced course and I find the conversation very difficult to follow. It is hard to
Understand because the speech is fast and slurred not clearly spoken. Especially when new words and phrases are used..
The first two courses don’t prepare you well enough with verb conjugation either.

Almost 2 months in, I've requested a refund. I hate this ridiculously juvenile course.
I hate this course so passionately. It's juvenile, stupid "silly" and so so SO annoying. I literally do not understand how any adult could do this course. I cannot stand the banter with Amy for another second. Does irritation, annoyance, and flat-out anger increase retention? If so maybe Rocket Spanish is on to something...but I want to shake the people leaving positive reviews and ask them what the WHAT is wrong with them. I beg you, do the free trial lesson of whatever level, and if you're annoyed with all the English stupidity, know that it does NOT get better. It does not decrease. It will only get worse. If you love Amy's voice, speaking in English, and want to listen to her kid around, this course is for you. OR...if you don't care about the audio lessons. I think buried in this course is some good content. And I know it's not meant to be audio-only. But the audio is THAT bad. Just don't do it. Maybe do it high or something. Might be tolerable. Probably not.

Response from Rocket Languages: Thanks so much for your review. We're sorry to hear that you are not enjoying the tone of the Rocket Spanish lessons. We try to strike the right balance between fun lessons that aren't too silly/annoying or too dry/boring. It's not always to everyone's tastes, and of course, we don't get it right all the time. Rocket Spanish is usually pretty well-received by our learners, but we do appreciate all of the feedback that we get. We will pass your comments on to the Rocket Spanish team for their consideration. All the best with your language learning!
I am having an awesome time and moments leaning Spinach in a really fun ways on Rocket Languages.

I love Rocket Spanish it is so smart and fun it help me learn Spanish a lot
This program makes learning Spanish much simpler than what I remember in school!
Blows Duolingo out of the water. I purchased this program for my teens before we make a trip to Latin America. We're enjoying it!
