Rocket Languages Reviews

The system itself is very powerful and comprehensive. It would be really enjoyable.. if it worked.
The voice recognition software, which is the heart of the system, won't work most of the times.
At first I put it down to my bad pronunciation as I am using top-notch technology. As my pronunciation skills got better I could see no improvements. At this point I tried feeding the audio from the Rocket French app itself to my laptop through microphone. Incredibly enough IT WOULDN'T PICK IT UP or would show accuracy at 50-75%!
This is frustrating, because I am eager to learn but I lost my initial enthusiasm. Sometimes I get stuck to the same word for minutes with no 100% pronunciation accuracy.
For 263 euros I was expecting better software development.
Very disappointed.

The lessons are great and there helpful to learn the language. I really enjoy learning the language and I hope that people would go to this website to try for themselves. Dedicate their time to their lessons and studies to learn Korean or even different other languages.

I've definitely fallen in love with this program! It's so easy to follow and Kenny-san and Sayaka-san are awesome! I love how in depth they go into simple phrases and the hear it say it, quiz and write is, has been helping me remember the hiragana and the pronunciation of the words/phrases. I recommended my friend try this program and he's trying out the trial first but says he likes what he sees. A definite tip: practice, practice, practice. I like that they tell me to listen to the audio twice, but I'll make sure to go back to what I've already learned from time to time to not forget anything. I also love that they start with the previous lessons conversation and ask you if you remember certain key words. Amazing course, I love it!

I gave customer service 3 stars because I haven't interacted with them as of yet (I haven't needed to thank goodness), but when that changes I'll give my opinion then as well .

Thanks Rocket Languages!

This is a revision to an earlier review I posted. Although I wasn't real impressed originally, I stayed with it because, well, I paid for it. Since then I have become more familiar with the RF system and have been able to get more out of it. The single most important value to me is the immediate playback of one's own voice which allows comparison with the native speaker and improvement of pronunciation. I still get frustrated when the voice recognition software stubbornly refuses to validate sometimes, even though my recording sounds just like the example, but I've learned to ignore it and move on. As one progresses, there is a lot to learn here and I'd rate
RF among the top three available language learning systems.

The online Spanish Course is exactly what I was looking for and the price was easily affordable. I will turn 73 this year and one time through the materials is never enough for me but I am able to repeat each exercise several times until I can complete it flawlessly. The record-it application is very smart and has been a tremendous help in improving my pronunciation, the intonation and phrasing of short sentences. I am part way through the first module but I am looking forward to the grammar and survival lessons. I believe I could be ready for Mandarin in a couple of years. This is my first attempt at learning a second language to my native American Mid-West English.

Rocket French is the most wonderful website I have encountered to help me learn French. It's easy to use on mobile app as well as on the computer. It's way in teaching and monitoring the progress is very motivating, and what's really remarkable about it is the beautiful accent of the native speaker, Claire, that I've started to acquire which was pleasantly noticeable to my family and friends that I am capable of speaking French beautifully!

I took the free course in Rocket Russian and I must say that taking just the free lessons I have learned how to say some important Russian phrases and I am able to speak those phrases just like a native speaker. Just a few days ago I didn't know even the first word in Russian. However just after a few lessons I can say several words. Rocket Russian has some great tutors that break each word down so that when you speak you can speak as if you have been speaking the language all of your life. I have noticed that the way they break down each word they are also training your ear to not just be able to speak the language but also hear what is being said. I plan on purchasing the complete course because I believe that Rocket Russian has much more to offer which is well worth the money. I have spent lots of money taking language courses in college in other languages but I didn't learn this much, this quick. I think Rocket Russian is an awesome way to learn a new language. I wish I had discovered this course long ago.

I am enjoying my attempts to learn Spanish although finding the time during a house move in recent weeks has been trying. However, now I am moved I shall be making a major drive to catch up with what I've already thought I've learnt and making progress with some new. The interactive nature of the learning experience is very effective and I feel I am making great progress in spite of my lack of time on the job.

I had purchased this course in the in mp3 version and had lost it when computer died some years ago so was great to find again. I enjoy the method used and find it works for me. French lessons were my 2018 Valentines gift to me.

Hello, Marie Claire is fantastic. I look forward to seeing her messages in my browser to learn something new every day she contacts me. I find
it very satisfying and exciting to be learning a new language and looking forward to putting it to good use in the future days. Many thanks for being my colleague and teacher. Learning with Rocket French is fantastic. continued success. Ray King. U.K.
