Rocket Spanish Reviews

Sonnion, I don't like rocket languages, its boring and its hard to stick to

First, the positives: I love the Rocket Spanish Level 2. I had recently finished Rosetta Stone Spanish before I started it, and it was the perfect place to continue my studies and fill in gaps of vocabulary/grammar. I loved how the audio lessons have been perfect for making my commutes extremely productive and I particularly enjoyed how challenging the listen-and-repeat and real time translation tasks were in the Level 2 audio lessons. They prompted me to listen to a few lessons multiple times and really gave the listener the opportunity to try out new words and grammatical structures in different types of sentences.

Sadly, I was quite disappointed to find the audio lesson style changed almost completely for Level 3. I appreciate that the language of the conversations became more complex and fast-paced. However, the explanation of language points (especially grammar) has been very thin to nonexistent (I do understand there are self-paced grammar units, but these are obviously not delivered in audio format like they were in Level 2). Additionally, outside of the Rocket Review portion, the listen and repeat has mostly been focused on single words/phrases, and the real-time translation tasks (or listen-and-repeating in more varied grammatical contexts) are almost nonexistent. Unfortunately, this has made the audio lesson format feel quite passive and not challenging at all (except for listening comprehension).

very good it helps me to learn the words accurately by repeating them.

I love how it teaches you each word slowly! It is so fun and easy for any age.

Rocket languages really helped me speak spanish and other languages

I've used programs like Duo Lingo and Pimsleur in the past and this program draws the best from both of them and really emphasizes the reinforcement in a way that is more engaging and "authentic" than the other platforms. This feels like the holistic spanish program I've been looking for.

I find the lessons very well structured and enjoyable.

I love the format and the material! I am very unhappy with the voice recording issues and the answers i got from the help section. I would like the option to call an speak to a person. I even bought a brand new computer so I would not have any more "technical problems" by getting the latest windows version and hardwarebut that didnt even help. I dont mind the price. If the program issues are fixed I will be happy

I like the variety of activities, the repetition in each lesson and the presentation of lessons by using situations that a person traveling in a Spanish-speaking country would need.

I love it its an amazing way to help learn Spanish its helped me so much already
