Rocket Korean Reviews

I've not paid I'm using the free trial. It's good but I wouldn't pay for it bc I don't have money.

I love this they help me speak korean in 1 week!!!!!!!

rocket languages helps me a lot with korean words its so cool

I have previously bought the French course which is excellent. I have not started my Korean lessons yet, but I have checked the structure of the course and it is excellent in comparison to other online courses as I have bought other courses. I am sure that I will learn Korean and Mandarin with you guys. Thank you!

I hate to write this, but the English guide's strange midcentury Boston brahmin accent is so distracting that I cannot hear the Korean being spoken. Aside from the strange English, the phrases used for study are very long and not broken up into memorizable parts, and there is no option to not include the very long and unnecessary "extra vocab" from the audio in the flashcards and other study.
Overall this seems to be teaching canned phrases to be stored in short-term memory, rather than starting out small and forming a true understanding of the language for long-term learning. This might be good if you're visiting Korea for a short period and need to parrot some emergency phrases, but I may have to look elsewhere to actually learn to understand Korean. Pretty disappointed in how much money I spent.

It is such a shame. Rocket has the potential to be really good, but lack of attention to detail and poor explanations mean that it fails to reach its potential.

I have almost finished my Rocket Korean course. I have benefited from it, but only because I have a Korean wife, who has been able to explain things that Rocket have left vague, not explained well or just got plain wrong. First, the good things. The reinforcement process (Flashcards, oral repetition and so on) is excellent and has helped things to stick in my mind. The voice recognition software is also pretty good. It is weak on short words of one or two syllables, but in general works well. The audio conversations and reinforcement within them are also decent. There are three big problems with Rocket, however. Firstly, it’s explanations of grammar are not very clear and sometimes contain errors. Secondly it illustrates concepts with sentences that are far too complex and contain sections which are not explained. This is incredibly frustrating, because it means that you end up rote learning a lot of phrases rather than learning how to construct your own sentences. Finally the reference material and structure is very weak.

I enjoy the interactive lessons and the encouragement to speak it aloud. I wish you could slow down the speed on the app, some words I need broken down into pieces and had to go elsewhere in order to learn the correct pronunciation.

I learn Japanese and Spanish and hangul so I could travel my fav. place!

It's a very good platform to learn different languages and the lessons are detailed! I've been using this since almost 3 years ago but I've recently managed to plan my time and continue learning Korean. My experience has been great and I would definitely recommend using rocket languages to my other friends. In fact, I already have! I'm planning to get more Korean lessons when I save up more money for the premium access! Can't wait to get there soon!
