I decided to try Rocket Spanish because I wanted to learn some Spanish before a trip to Ecuador. I just returned, and the Spanish I learned with Rocket Spanish was not only extremely helpful, it made my trip so much more fun.
I really liked the full audio transcipts for the lessons that I could listen to anywhere (like when running, driving), then work on the remaining lesson pieces when I had time. It's great that the lessons are based on useful situations, and not just piles of random phrases. On my trip I was able to talk to people, order food, understand directions, and flight information.
At the airport the attendant asked us about tickets and carry on luggage. She spoke English but I was able to talk with her in Spanish instead. Possibly the best part is that with Rocket Spanish pronunciation practice, people were able to understand me.
Going to continue with Rocket Spanish, and keep working on those "rr's"! We are already planning another trip to Ecuador, and one to Spain. I tried some other programs, and I believe this is the best one you can buy. Thanks Rocket Spanish!
Rocket French helps me to apprendre french facile. I hope I can get the french language easily with Rocket French by following their instruction on daily basis. I am keenly & inherently want to learn french language.
I would like to say that Rocket Languages is awesome because makes me feel comfortable about learning a difficult language such as Russian. I feel like I have had a immersion in the Russian words and culture, seeming to me as if I were living there...
I became gratefully surprised about the Rocket. They overcame my expectations in the best way!!
I listen to the downloadable conversations when I am cleaning, working out, and every time I have a break... I just saved them to my phone and listen to those instead of music! I love the different activities! I have learned so much already! thank you! I wish the font of the Arabic words was larger so I could better learn how to put the letters together to form words. Thank you for a great learning platform!
Wow!! Thank you for making Flash card vocab revision earn points!! It was a necessary evil before, that I'd tack onto the beginning or end of a lesson . . . I feel even more virtuous now that I can see the tally go up, and it counts towards my active streak!
UPDATE!
On a recent visit to France/French-speaking Switzerland I found I could understand much more of what I read and heard than on previous visits. Although often too slow to respond, when I did say something, I WASN'T ANSWERED IN ENGLISH !! (I take this to mean that my pronunciation is also much improved.)
I am not even half-way through Level 1, and am convinced that Rocket French will have me communicating meaningfully on my next trip.
Rocket Languages is great! It helps me to not only learn the words, but also to pronounce them. Personally, I enjoy the the testing section because it helps me memorize what I have learned in past lessons and no one sees my grades ( so I don't have to feel shy about my grades)! I would recommend rocket languages to anyone who desires to have a good experience learning a new language while enjoying himself.
Listening to the audio lessons is very boring. You hear someone saying something in Arabic, and then they tell you what it is in english with a little bit of filler and sometimes a lame joke. There's too much english speaking in between the arabic, and after listening to it I don't recall anything from it. I then started doing some of the other activities and they're all very basic. This is much less advanced than Rosetta Stone. Rosetta Stone doesn't choose the most useful phrases to teach you when you start off, but at least it reinforces what you are learning in an easy way to pick up the language without a lot of filler talk in the language you already speak (english in my case). It's hard to motivate myself to listen to more of these Rocket Arabic lessons because they are so boring.
Response from Rocket Languages
Hi Robert - We have added in a ton more standalone words and phrases that can be used with voice recognition. As well as that we have revamped the Language & Culture lessons.
I am so glad I bought Rocket French! The course as a whole is outstanding as it caters to all learning styles. I find it difficult to learn just by ear so being able to write, test and get involved in the actual conversation really helps the new vocabulary sink in! Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to learn a new language. It's much easier and more fun than learning in a class! :D
Well, I arrived in France three months back & before coming I learnt the basics of French from Module 1 and from survival kit & it helped me a lot in communicating to people initially. I am still learning here and communicating with people. I tried to learn from other sources also but rocket french is the best online course I would say. The courses are very organised and also motivating.
