Rocket Languages Reviews

Rocket Japanese gave me the opportunity to learn Japanese in the comfort of my own home and in my own pace. The lessons are so user friendly that you always feel confident of your progress after each lesson. 10/10 Rating experience! Would recommend Rocket Languages to anyone.

I did the Level 1 of Rocket French, and I really liked it! Now, I am able to speak and understand, for sure I am not fluent yet, but it is already really good! I totally recommend it! I have just bought the Level 2 and also the 3. I hope I will like them as well :)

Thank you for offering a Free Trial for Rocket French. I tried 2 other programs and was not happy with either. The trial you offered was in-depth and long enough to get a true feel for how much I can learn. It convinced me to purchase the first set...then when your Black Friday special of 60% off became available, I am purchasing your whole 3-package set - thank you! The format RocketFrench offers is excellent, with Audio listening/speaking/playback, repetition, writing, flashcards, and review - very in-depth! It is also great to have two different accents (Claire & Paul), and the ability to change from easy - medium - difficult settings. Also, with the purchase of the whole set, I am thrilled I will have 24//7 access forever, and the ability to go back and review past lessons at any time. I highly recommend this language format - THANK YOU ROCKET LANGUAGES!

I decided to buy Rocket Language Russian because I have always been fascinated by this language. Every day , I walk my dog for 1h and listen to an Audio Lesson. I practice Russian of course BUT also English since the comments are in English ( I'm French ).
To be honest, I was skeptical but after only one month I honestly can say I made real progress, it's not boring at all, it's easy and each day I feel like having Russian friends talking to me. I'm training my memory and after a few months, I will add this skill to my resume!

Rocket Languages is really good for someone who is wanting to begin learning a language fast and easy. It takes little time and you surely get a lot out of each lesson. And not only does it teach you the language, but it also teaches you different parts of the culture from where your language of choice is spoken. It's really amazing and I've already recommended to each of my friends.

I really struggled to learn to speak German. So I tried a lot of different methods. Rocket German gave me a good initial foundation. It didn't help that much with the grammar though. After I learned more grammar I returned to Rocket German and went through the course again. It was really helpful then for learning colloquial phrases and improving my pronunciation. I'd say there's no easy way to learn German but to learn how to have a basic conversation in German, Rocket German is extremely useful.

Even though I have just started the Rocket Spanish course I can already say that it goes beyond many other Spanish training classes/software I have taken before. I have tried the other major products (Rosetta Stone, Pimsleur, CD's and books (yes, I have been trying on and off for 20 years), DuoLingo) and Rocket Spanish takes the best from each. I like how it explains the reasoning of why the grammar is the way it is (DuoLingo doesn't do that) and gives you practice in listening, reading, and speaking. That last one is the one I need to do more of... speaking. Once I get deeper into the courses I will write another review, but so far it is much more than I expected.

The entire process has been a breeze... start to finish. I recently purchased another program from the competition, but quickly returned it after realizing it's many faults. Rocket is highly intuitive for the user, and honestly, much less intimidating. I hope to have my entire staff using the software soon.

Overall Rocket Italian is a pretty good system. You get exposed to the language in a variety of ways and have some explanation as to why a particular pattern exists.

It does have the problem that there is only one correct answer for each thing. This of course ignores the fact that many things can be said in slightly different ways. As an example the phrase "She is angry" technically can be said as either "Lei è arrabbiata" OR "È arrabbiata" however the only accepted answer is "È arrabbiata". In other places an answer is only accepted if it has a he/she indicator.

There are also numerous places where the English phrase refers to you plural but for some strange reason they have not realized that _every_ place they do that needs some kind of indicator that they mean you plural rather than you singular since English only has 'you'.

Overall the issues with Rocket Italian aren't that big but they make it feel more like you are memorizing lines in another language rather than learning another language. The dialogues are the worst for this as they slowly take away more of the words you are supposed to say but you have to say the phrase word for word to get it right even though there are times when you could get the same meaning across with slightly different words. (They really should package the dialogue portion so that it can be used by actors memorizing lines as that is what it does.)

I absolutely love Rocket Languages, or in my case Rocket Japanese! I’ve had an account since 2011 and I just love the way it enables you to actively practice speech even if you don’t have a person to practice with. Since learning Japanese to me is a hobby, it is something that gets put on hold more often than not, however whenever I want to get back into it I start with listening to Rocket Japanese audio lessons. It’s puts me right back in the action of the language, something that would be neither as easy nor as fun if I were just using a book. I do combine the Rocket course with a book for better grammar and more hands-on practice in addition to a Kanji book, as I prefer more exercises, but it would not go as smoothly without your lessons, which are enjoyable even after the so-manieth repeat. just want to add that I appreciate all the upgrades that you do :)
