I'm up to lesson 3 of Rocket Korean and am loving it! I've learnt the alphabet and some words from books, but it’s great to hear the language being spoken and have a chance to learn the correct pronunciation and sentence structure of Korean. Love the hosts too. Good price. Recommend highly!
Rocket Korean helps me learn Korean in a systematic, organised and fun way. I love the lessons and explanations, they're very helpful! The flashcards and other course activities allow me to speak and improve my pronunciation. Not only that, with the help of the flashcards, I am able to remember the vocabulary very well. Thank You!
This app and the website are fantastic. The speech recognition is really accurate -- and as Kelly says, "You have to practice the words aloud, not just in your head!"
This is probably the best experience I have had with being able to learn at my own pace and feel engaged in learning. I tend to be prone to distractions and have spent a lot of time and energy on language learning that has left me unsatisfied because it didn't have all the options and approaches that this program has given me. I appreciate how thoroughly each lesson is designed to really commit the information to memory. I struggle a lot with my attention span but this is giving me my best chance at achieving my goal of learning another language fluently. So I really want to thank everyone involved and try to make the best of it. I would recommend this method to anyone else who is interested in at home in depth learning. Maybe a little on the pricey side but at this point I have spent a lot on much less effective methods enough to know this is well worth the investment for me. After I am satisfied with Korean I would like to move on to another language as well.
Honest review
The voice recognition could use some work, but it's fun to use and definitely gets you speaking out loud. I haven't really seen any features offered yet that's worth the price. I'm basing that off of what's offered for free on the internet already.
Another feature though that deserves praise is the 'Play as' feature where you take the role of someone in a conversation. It's honestly a 5 star feature on its own.
Thinking about this in depth is making me realize how much is actually offered and how much I'm paying for it... I could only think of a couple good things (and they're basically the same thing). I can't recommend this to a friend while I'm thinking about discontinuing use of it myself. Wow
Awesome Korean learn website thank you so much nice
Good but it would be better if you had more help with the pronunciation of the Mandarin words. I know I can listen to your recording and mine but I can't seem to figure out how to fix my pronunciation to match what is taught
Response from Rocket Languages
Thank you for your review. If you haven't checked it out already, you will probably find lesson 1.5 Pronouncing Chinese and Greetings helpful. Other than that, just keep listening to the words and phrases, and recording yourself, to really help tune your ear to Mandarin pronunciation. All the best!
It's really nice to have an app like this ,it is helpful to know new languages and it's easy to learn in this app . Just loved it ❤
I use this to listen to when running. It is disappointing that there does not seem to be a way to automatically move from one interactive audio lesson to the next without having to do it manually. Some of your competitors eg korean101, do permit this. A minor issue but one of convenience.
Response from Rocket Languages
Thanks so much for your feedback. We are planning on adding a playlist option to our app later this year, which will be far more convenient for listening to on the go. I hope that helps!
I love it because I can easily learn. have enjoyed the Rocket learning platform! The way they have their lessons outlined, really helps me out. I like how I control what gets checked off as completed and learned so I know I can move forward. I also like how I can go back and review. Each day I go through 4 lessons and at the end of the week, I start a new one and complete one that I have been at for 3 weeks. For me repetition is the key! My wife and I plan on going back to visit family in Italy, in about a year, so I hope by then I will be able to understand and maybe respond a little bit more than the last time.
