Rocket Languages Reviews

Alright, so I have been using Rocket Chinese for about a year now. I was attracted mostly by the price and the amount of features involved. I was not about the drop hundreds of dollars on Rosetta's Stone or Pimsleur, but I did want quality learning. There are hundreds of ways to learn Mandarin for free on the internet. I realize that. But I needed a place that could provide grammatical support, and have comprehensive lessons that taught a higher level of understanding to the language. Here is what I got:
-Good entertaining lessons
-Motivation
-An overall look at the language
-Chinese culture
And here are the things that I have noticed need improvement
-Despite the recent edits to the "Hear it, Speak it" I definitely think that it can be fixed up even more
-The point system can be more comprehensive for example someone that practices every day, reviewing old lessons will never get the same credit as someone who just puts random answers for quizzes, answers BS for blog posts. I know the end goal is to learn the language and these people wont be doing that but you get the idea
-Chinese writing section I think could definitely use some improvements, and a way of testing yourself to learn the characters.

Currently I am learning Italian and Spanish. Rocket Languages makes learning a foreign language fun and easy. I just wish there was a discount to those who are learning two or more languages. That would only be fair.

I've only just begun with Rocket Language, but I already feel as if I have learned so much. The French course is extremely thorough and well put together, with an excellent integration of culture as well as grammar and sentence structure! Tres bien!

I've stop and started Rocket French several times but now since I've downloaded audio lessons to my MP3 it'll be easier to start over again and keep going since MP3 can go with me anywhere.

This is a great language program to learn Egyptian Arabic. I strongly recommend it.

I am studying French in an on-site Immersion course and was looking for something to better prepare me for classes and supplement my learning. Rocket French employs many of the same techniques use in my Immersion settings. The transcripts are helpful, the recordings are very clearly spoken , the games reinforce the learning. Love it.

I have been doing Rocket Italian for the past 2 years. I find that when I follow the program as designed I get the most benefit from it. I have travelled to Italy a couple of times and found that the Rocket lessons have stayed with me being very useful.
Thanks to Maria and her co-presenters.

Very good value for the price compared with other offerings I researched and tried.

I am gaining confidence and learning new words as well as re-affirming what I already know at any time of the day with any amount of time I have available. Which is great.

I decided to purchase Rocket Spanish Premium when I saw the recommendation from PC Magazine. What a terrific language course: well structured, varied and motivating. I would recommend the Rocket series to anyone.
