Rocket Languages Reviews

Rocket Italian is great! I believe there is one mistake in lesion 5.7 The section heading past perfect tense is actually the present perfect tense. Thus far I am really enjoying this course. It is a great way to learn Italian, the language of all my grandparents whom were born in the area around Torino. My wife and I enjoy Italy. She is impressed that I can use my Italian there.

One of my favorite features of Rocket Italian is the fact that there are many opportunities to listen to and imitate native Italian speakers. Even though I've been learning Italian for approximately 1.5 years (I've completed all 5 of the Pimsleur Italian courses (the 5th was just released in May 2015)), I know that one can never underestimate opportunities to listen to the target language as it should be spoken. I also appreciate that Rocket provides ample opportunities to speak the language, and even provides feedback of pronunciation with the Rocket Record feature. Another feature that I really like about Rocket is the attention it gives to explaining grammatical and cultural aspects of the language. I've checked out a number of textbooks (and have even taken a formal course in Italian (with textbooks I absolutely detested)), and am impressed with how clearly and simply Rocket explains complex grammatical concepts.The areas of Rocket that I believe are weakest are opportunities for reading and writing the language. There are opportunities to read the conversation transcripts and the vocabulary exercises, but these are limited to short samples.

This is a very good site. Other sites do not present the language in an organized fashion like this site does. I am very impressed. It is the best that I have seen so far. The way the language is presented is very effective.

Rocket French is a valuable learning tool. The diction in both languages is excellent and the course is overflowing with so much input.
What I personally like about it is - you can come back to it at any time without losing your course fee etc. You can pick up where you left off a few weeks ago, maybe after sickness, or, as in my case, after major surgery. Learning a language via Rocket is so convenient. It fits into your own particular lifestyle like a glove on your hand. You chose when and where to access it, and your own private teacher is always there on call.

So far this is an amazing course. This is a great way to learn Egyptian Arabic. The quality is very good as well as being easy to use. I would highly recommend this to my friend. Actually, my friend is joining now. I really am hoping that it will be a successful road to Arabic.

I had some knowledge of German before I started but this has improved my German a lot . Have been to Germany and Austria a few times since I started and my wife was amazed when we went for a meal and I conducted the ordering of the meal including a discussion on what wines they could recommend in German.

I have enjoyed learning Arabic the Rocket way but now for about the last 10 or 12 lessons they have been the same lesson. "Greeting". I would like to learn something new I would to be able to speak more quickly. Maybe some letter exercised would be beneficial.

I just LOVE my Rocket French courses. I purchased the complete CD packages (Rocket French 1, 2, 3) and listen to them over and over in the car. This is a no- hassle, no-pressure, easy and relaxed way to learn another language. A great language learning system!

Rocket French is an incredible value. It's fun to use and incredibly effective. I was completely new to the French language before moving to France, so I bought Rocket French three months before I moved to get me started. Using Rocket French gave me the foundation I needed to learn quickly. Nine years later, I am still using the advanced lessons to improve. I love it.

Fantastic concept with a very user friendly interface. The pronunciation feature is useful but may need a little finessing in order to provide more consistent feedback. The program and content overall is of excellent quality, and I would not hesitate in recommending Rocket to any aspiring language learner.
