So far the course is great... Checks off all the learning avenues to guarantee your success.
I think that it a very good online course, the interactive parts are great, it really helps to improve. The conversations chosen are real, meaninful, they help to go around in the real world. I have some suggestions though: it would be very helpful to get the possibility of translating and hearing part of the sentences (cyberteachers from Berlitz has it). I would also extend a bit the content of level 3 to make it match to level B2 or even level C.
I'm just starting out and find the lessons comfortable and easy to use. So far I need to go over each one several times and take notes to make progress. The program is very adaptable to my learning style.
My computer is having difficulty with my microphone and the flash player, not yet resolved. Even without my voice input I'm making good progress. The Rocket team are very responsive and easy to contact. Good value.
The Rocket Italian Premium level is great for learning basic travel phrases. The voice recognition software works very well and if you use all the tools they provide for you regularly you'll definitely feel comfortable pulling out Italian phrases when you need them. I do like to listen to the audio lessons several times though. Also I with there was more variety in the testing and practice. An exercise where the student is given a completely new sentence that they have to give back in Italian would be really helpful.
Sorry, it is too early for me to give you a review of your course.
Can I use Whatsapp instead of opening the computer to view your course?
I am not sure I would buy it again, and I am not sure .......
The best feature of Rocket French is that I can use the program any time of the day, which is handy because I work a full time job and cannot be flexible with my time. It has so far proven useful for helping me develop my speaking and comprehension skills. I would recommend this programme to a friend.
Great product; an overall fantastic way to learn/practice a language. However, the narrator's pronunciation in the Rocket French lessons (level 2) is comically bad at best and cringe-worthy at worst. A great example of what NOT to say. For context of my experience, I recently finished Pimsleur's 5 levels of French which is strictly focused on speaking and listening. Pimsleur is better in that regard, however, I don't recommend buying two services like I did. Rocket French seems to take you closer to fluency. I'm sure you can get everything you need from Rocket Languages. Salut !

Thank you for your review. We are so glad to hear that you are enjoying Rocket French and that it's helping you reach your French fluency. We will make sure to pass your feedback regarding the narrator to the French team. We wish you all the best in your journey to French fluency!
I was able to get it for free so that was awesome. I think that it's a lot better than Duolingo and it teaches you real stuff. The frustrating part is that the audio won't pick up on your non-native accent very well. I wish they had different graph options to track your point progress.

This course is challenging, especially trying to keep up with the speaker's pace (no way, yet).
Memorizing the dialogs reminds me of language school days where we had to memorize dialogs daily - very challenging!
I was happy about the course. teaching was nice. I enjoyed the learning.
