Having moved from the United States to Berlin, Germany last year, I needed serious help to get up to speed on my German. I've taken several German courses, and used a few other software packages; however, Rocket German is my favorite of all the language development tools. I really appreciate the fact that the good folks at Rocket Languages are always trying to update the content on the website...keeping the lessons fresh and fun. It's good to back over some of the old material from time to time...and Rocket keeps you motivated to do so. While I do not feel I have mastered the language (yet), Rocket German is helping me get there.
Superb! I loved everything about it. Great lessons accompanied by best pronunciation etc and great tutors! The best site for learning and improving the requisite language skills! Great and helpful study material!
So far so good. Very thorough and comprehensive, allowing you to hear, repeat, record, and compare your pronunciation with that of a native. Love the program! Looking forward to learning cultural aspects of the German language, as well as becoming that much more conversant with each segment.
I've tried other German Language software and nothing compares to the ease of use comprehension as Rocket German does. I will tell anyone who wants to learn a language to try Rocket first. They won't be disappointed.
Wirklich toll! The only area which I would critique is in connection with pronunciation. Paul's pronunciation is very clear. Nik's is rather Australian. The interactive pronunciation test really appears just to graph speech volume and phrasing rather than the accuracy of your pronunciation itself. You have to compare the recording of your own voice and evaluate for yourself how close your pronunciation is to that of the tutor. That could lead to the repetition of mistakes if your pronunciation goes uncorrected. They could improve this by focusing more on pronunciation, including how pronunciation varies according to regional dialect. I have no doubt that Rocket will improve this over time. Overall, it is simply a wonderful German language learning tool, and one that is very easy and fun to use. "Sehr gute Arbeit! Auf Wiedersehen!"
I have always wanted to learn a foreign language. When I finally decided on German the question was which online course to start with. Before Rocket German I tried a few other language courses and gave up in a couple of days thinking it was far too complicated language and a boring experience. Then I took a free trial with Rocket German and I was speaking German on the very first day of my Course. I am glued to Rocket now. I think they know exactly how to make self learning of a foreign language a fun process. The tests at the end of each chapter are designed to boost self confidence and just by sincere studies using the brilliant rocket record technique I climb up the leaderboard! Rocket has become my hobby and only pastime. This course is well worth the money spent and more. I recommend it as the only course required to learn a New Language. Look No Further!
I LOVE Rocket German! At the beginning I had to force myself to study German (because my husband is German). But thanks to Rocket German, I started to enjoy learning German. Nik and Paul are definitely a great team. They sounded enthusiastic and engaged. The dialogues are short but useful and practical. As long as I am persistent, Rocket Languages definitely is a powerful tool. The price is acceptable, the content is rich, and it's enjoyable to listen to the audios.
I love the idea of learning a new language by virtual communication and opportunity to be tested after each lesson. The best of all I find the "know it- say it" column as you are being asked to repeat sentences you are struggling with! I have just started with 'The Rocket German' and must say its absolutely refreshing with its unique approach to learning!
Excellent way to practice speaking and listening to German. You can learn words and phrases by repeating them lots of times in useful contexts, which seems more effective than trying to memorise them from a list.
I like being able to learn German at my own pace and at an affordable price!. There is no more pressure than the one you put on yourself. I am learning it, because I want to learn it, not because I am forced to. All is well described and you can review something that was not clear the next day which sometimes is a big plus for me. ( since I work late sometimes )
