I am almost 75 years old and it's a long time since I did any study, but I'm finding this programme stimulating and user friendly. It is a good balance between the written and spoken word and combining it with little cultural snippets makes it more interesting and brings some reality into the learning. I would recommend it to anyone at any level.
I was very apprehensive about buying this because I'm a student and this seemed like a huge investment. That impression changed after the first module. I had been trying to learn French from YouTube tutorials and Duolingo for a while and Rocket's software did better than both of those and has made me feel that it was worth the price I paid. Thank you.
Their customer service is awesome, I made a mistake on my purchase and they quickly resolved the issue! Awesome customer service! Their program is very content rich, I am excited to dig in and learn Spanish!
The lessons are good, but I'm finding the speaking exercises very frustrating. The voice recognition does not work very well. The exercises require repeating over and over because the voice recognition is so poor. I'm not saying my pronunciation is great or anything, but it isn't as bad as the software shows. It slows down the lesson and makes it a drag.
I love the verbal play back Where is in English at the bottom as Spanish it to top that's great those phrases You should be able to have a star by that if you wanna replay To work when it later weeks I used a program on the road because I'm a commercial driver the filling my time while I'm on the road is a great little device
I am learning French. The program is good but far from perfect. There are problems with voice recognition. Level 1, Chapter 5 has a summary test that tests words that have never been introduced. Who proofs this stuff? One new word, 'manquer', translation "miss". What kind of miss? The "stories" are usually 25 minutes long and of little value. Customer support? Virtually nonexistent. During weekday normal hours there is a help desk, when you complain about something she will refer to IT department. IT department has a perfect record of never getting back to me so I quit writing notes to improve the course. The French course is good but could be much better if Rocket had interest in improving.
It's been years since I've had a formal Japanese course, and was never near any level of conversational proficiency. I've tried other methods and courses to try and brush up on the language, but nothing seemed to stick. Though I'm only through the first lesson, it seems like this might be what can get me being conversational!
What really seems to help is the encouragement to speak and repeat the language, which is something that I've always been shy about. I plan to see this course through, and if there are ever any other languages I want to pursue, I'll definitely use Rocket Language!
Rocket Languages has an AMAZING platform and is the best I've seen so far. It may not be as popular as other language programs but it is the most valuable. I love how they ease you into the language and the Voice program IS NO JOKE. I'm learning Korean, and it's such a relief that the first lessons are introductions and key phrases you basically NEED to know, instead of having to learn hangeul straight away. Also, the voice recognition program is so cool and it improves the quality of your learning so much. I have genuine fun with every lesson and I'm so thankful for the Rocket Languages Team for that.
I've just completed a weeks trial and already I am speaking some Japanese! The language feels really approachable and familiar to me now after this week of introduction. I have no doubt that given my commitment, motivation and drive, together with the Rocket Languages program, I absolutely WILL be having a conversation with my Japanese friends in 8 months.
I looked into different options, from intensive Chinese lessons to online applications like Rocket languages. Ultimately, I realized that I was going to get the same learning without spending thousands of euro. This application is superbly done and the voice recognition is simply amazing. I strongly recommend. I'm making great progress and feel that I'm going to be able to survive on my next trip and more...
