It is going to help me not only learn to speak but also to read and write French

Hi Cheryl, thank you for your review. It's great to hear that you are making progress not only in your spoken French abilities but also in your French writing and reading skills. Keep up the excellent work!
I have been highly satisfied so far.
The lessons are very thorough and set up for different learning styles. The voice recognition is strong with few exceptions. The content is massive.
The fixed price is a lot higher than the monthly prices charged by other language learning programs, but that price gets you everything at once and permanently for learning at your own pace. There are hundreds of hours of content that easily justify the cost and if you stick with it, Rocket Language will be cheaper after a few years than the monthly service.

The program keeps locking up on me. I am frustrated. Halfway through the pronunciation part I click the red microphone icon for the current word and it doesn't respond. And at that point I can't get the program to do anything. I have no opinion on the Customer Service as I haven't used it yet.

I've recently embarked on my journey to learn French with Rocket French, and I must say, it has been an incredibly rewarding experience thus far. As someone who hopes to move to Paris permanently in a few years, and who has always been fascinated by the French language and culture, I was eager to find a course that could help me achieve proficiency while fitting into my busy schedule. Rocket French has exceeded my expectations on all fronts.
One of the aspects I appreciate most about Rocket French is its interactive and engaging approach to learning. The course is designed in such a way that it keeps me motivated and excited to continue progressing. The combination of audio lessons, interactive exercises, and reinforcement activities ensures that I am constantly challenged and actively participating in my own learning journey.
The audio lessons, in particular, have been instrumental in helping me develop my listening and speaking skills. The clear and natural dialogue presented in each lesson makes it easy to follow along and practice pronunciation. The accompanying transcripts and translations further enhance comprehension and reinforce vocabulary acquisition.

Amazing software however some audio to speech playbacks are a bit off such as "mot" . I've even had my french boyfriend give it a try to see if it was just my accent, and the software was not accepting his voice either.

"I bought the course 10 years ago (French). I began working on it but had to stop for personal reasons. Since it offers lifetime access, I can restart now. The course has been updated with more content and a nicer interface, and I wanted to start over from scratch. Therefore, I emailed customer service to request a reset of all my exercises, and they kindly did so very quickly. I am very satisfied. The first time I used it was in 2014, in preparation for a trip to France in 2015. At that time, I only had access to level 1, but it helped me with the basics. I have tried many other apps because my native language is Portuguese, and Rocket French does not offer Portuguese to French. However, this course is definitely better; it's complete. You can learn all four skills: writing, listening, pronunciation, and reading, and they also provide some grammar and cultural tips. I wish they offered Portuguese to French; it would be easier for me since English is my second language, not my first.
