So far so good. I like the diversity of approaches - grammar, vocabulary, cards, writing what you hear, speaking... The voice recognition is an important part of the course and is great when it works. Unfortunately, a significant portion of the time it does not - on random occasions it can not detect any sound. And I am not sure what to say about the customer service, I don't know how to access that feature.

It's fantastic to hear that you're loving our comprehensive French course, Basmala! Keep up the awesome work!
pretty easy to follow and complete course, I love it so far. I would only like for the voice recognition to be a little more accurate and to have random automatic repetition of the lessons to recap previous concepts.

Thank you for the feedback, Andres! It's really useful to us to know what our users would find helpful in their language learning. When it comes to the voice recognition, just drop us a line at support@rocketlanguages.com, and we'll be more than happy to help make sure it is performing as accurately as possible.
I like this program because it touches all the bases (reading, writing, listening and speaking), introduces very usable vocabulary from the start and I really like the cultural and grammar part. The storyline is entertaining.
The only thing that I don't like is the sound quality in the exercises, I have to replay the words/sentences nearly every time because of the stuttering playback. The second time is perfect.

This product is the best I have used in decades of language learning, utilising the various input needed to get the language into long-term memory. Grammar is learned for the most part through context/immersion, making it relevant and very useful. I thoroughly recommend Rocket - it works!

Thank you for being part of our French language-learning community, Chris! It's great to hear that you are finding your long-term memory of French is improving. Keep up the amazing progress!
It is a bad version of other courses. The voice recognition is poor based on experience from other apps. I have paid into the course you may wish not to.

Extremely thorough training that covers speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Exceptionally well-organized and presented. Excellent blend of easy and challenging components in each lesson. Keep up the fantastic work. Thank you!

Thank you for being part of our Rocket French community. We're thrilled that you're enjoying the comprehensiveness of the course!
Additional grammar explanations helpful. The pronunciation of "Je" or "J' "changes significantly depending on the words and their grammatical spelling following "Je". Rote memorization is not a good approach when grammar determines pronunciation.
Response from Rocket Languages
Awesome to hear that you're enjoying our comprehensive Language and Culture lessons! We understand that rote memorization isn't everyone's cup of tea, which is why we offer three reinforcement activities focused on pronunciation at the end of each lesson.
This course is especially valuable to me as it places great emphasis on pronunciation, which is a challenge in the French language. The practice units on spelling, pronunciation etc. at the end of the module provide excellent reinforcement of material recently learned. Thank you.

It's awesome to hear how much the course's comprehensiveness and focus on pronunciation are helping you progress in your French language learning. You're a valued member of our Rocket community, John! Keep up the great work!
I can read French and chose Rocket French because I needed to learn how to pronounce the language correctly and acquire conversational skills for an upcoming visit to France. The course meets these needs and is well structured; words and grammar from early lessons come back in later ones to reinforce what I've learned (or forgotten). The phone app is especially valuable because it uses speech recognition to grade my pronunciation and catch my errors; I wish the browser version did this as well.
The user interface makes it easy for me to report problems and the staff is very responsive in either referring them to the development team or clarifying things I misunderstood.
Response from Rocket Languages
Thanks, Bill! It's always exciting to hear how our users plan to use their language skills. We're sorry that you are unable to get your pronunciation graded on the web version; this should be available as long as you are using a browser we support. Reach out to our customer support team, and we'd be happy to help you out with this!
