It's like a classroom setting that focuses most on the important parts of a language. Yes, knowing the word is important, but being able to ask for it is more helpful in communication. Rocket Languages is great to get you conversational ASAP, without bogging you down with grammar that can come with time.
I decided to try Rocket German more or less a week ago, and I absolutely loved it. I tried some other methods (Pages, apps or books) but none of them were really helping me to learn and I was losing my time. Now I'm enjoying the way they teach, the simplicity of the lessons and I just want to continue studying more and more everytime. Let's see how far this goes. I also think that in some time from now, if I felt excellent with the program, I will buy also Rocket French
I have always wanted to learn Spanish especially know that I found out that I'm Hispanic. After trying several other trail sites Babbal, Rosetta Stone Rocket Spanish is by far the best, I like that has a lesson on the pronouncing the letters before you start with the words. I have been using Rocket Spanish for about three days and I have already picked up Spanish. I have a long way to go but I'm excited in continuing.
If you’re planning to travel, I can see that it would be helpful to carry a conversation. I think the testing is a good idea. I like the Flashcards. However, this program just doesn’t meet my learning needs.
I’ve just started using the program but so far I love it. I always thought I needed to study a textbook (I do have the background and have already learned the script) but this is extremely convenient. I’m listening every time I’m in the car and also at night. Even though books had an audio component, it wasn’t convenient so I’d mostly just practice saying things to myself. Now I’m actually listening and speaking the language (which is the whole point!). I’ve also used Rosetta Stone and much prefer Rocket Hindi. This has the convenience of the app but also some explanation instead of me just guessing like in Rosetta Stone.
I have tried before many different softwares for learning Spanish and unfortunately I found them quite boring and not very effective. I have been using Rocket Spanish for a week now and I have to tell you that I already stared to use the material from the first 5 classes in normal life. The method used here absolutely fits my needs and I am very optimistic about my future results. I also really like that I can access the material on an app on my phone. That gives me the freedom to learn wherever I am. So far "thumbs up" for Rocket Spanish.
Very happy with course. I’m doing all of it on my phone so website doesn’t reflect my lessons progress.
If I had to mention any one thing that’s been disappointing, it would be that I wish there were more interactive audio. Language and culture sections are good, but I find it difficult to click through them. Practice is Essential!
Overall very please with what I’ve learned to date. Seriously considering buying into next part of course.
Great program!
Nothing "awesome" to say. I thought you wanted my honest, candid feedback. Still waiting for help on the problem of inserting special characters in the writing practice section of lessons. Rocket told me I must wait two to four days.
I get the impression Rocket also doesn't teach grammar either—at least not overtly. Disappointing.
What's your return policy?
Response from Rocket Languages
Hi Bruce - The special character issue on Rocket French "Write it!" exercises has been resolved by adding in special keys for the French characters. Grammar is taught extensively in the Language and Culture lessons, did you see those? And, finally, if you decide that it's not for you then we have a 60 day full money back guarantee. Just contact customer support.
Just started but after having tried out several others, love the way this program works. Hopefully I will continue to move smoothly from lesson to lesson. This is a great way to review a language you have previously learned and want to come back to.
Very polished application. I like that you can learn at your own pace, and that you are learning Spanish used in everyday conversations. I also like how each lesson is framed into a real life scenario, this helps put me into a situation I feel would actually happen. The only takeaway is that I wish each lesson's test portion was longer/more challenging, but this is supplemented by the end-of-module comprehensive test. Overall, very pleased with the Rocket Spanish product.
