Rocket Languages Reviews

Rocket Languages is a fun interactive way to get you to learn complex languages. I am currently in a Korean class and it helps me in many ways understand the language as well as give me formal backgrounds that delve deeper into the language than is given in my class. My speaking korean has improved dramatically and it is a great alternative to not having someone nearby who can speak the language to keep you on top of your game. Korean is a complex language so it lends to the strength of Rocket languages because asian languages are one of the most complex in the world.

I began studying German 2 years ago, going from the online course Linq to Michel Thomas' CDs (Total and Perfect courses), and now have come to Rocket German. These other courses offered a very good foundation, but I now look forward to quickly acquiring more of a spontaneous, conversational facility with the language. I'd strongly recommend Rocket courses to others.

I am only on day 9 of RF, but my experience thus far has been excellent. I have been trying to teach myself French with various books and programs over the past few years, and I haven't always been terribly disciplined up until about a year ago. Like many, speaking is my greatest hurdle. I am enjoying the record and playback features, and comparing my voice with the pre-recorded sentences until I get it right. Explanations are clear and helpful. Customer support is also excellent - questions are answered quickly. Thanks, Rocket French!

I have been enjoying my Rocket Languages courses. They are a good blend of grammar, vocabulary, and speaking. In my opinion unless one tries to speak the language they are trying to learn not much progress will be made. This in my opinion is where Rocket Language courses shine! My goal is to be able to understand and to be able to speak German and French in a year. With Rocket Language courses I think this is possible!

There is absolutely nothing I can say that would make my Rocket Languages experience any better. In terms of their content quality and organization, the lessons are top notch and sequenced fluidly and logically. As for the learning tools, the amount of application and immersive learning you experience from you very first lesson is unparalleled.

If I were to make any requests, it would be for the mobile app to have all of the functionality of the browser portal so that you can take your complete learning experience with you on the go. So far the only thing that is lacking are the flash cards, but I feel like that would be the best function to have available on your phone since it's the easiest review activity to do on the go.

All in all, 5/5, would buy again, would recommend, and would gift to a language loving friend!

Rocket French is the best of the many French language teaching programs I have had experience with. I had a minimum amount of French training in high school and college just to meet the language requirement for my chosen field. Language learning at the time consisted of textbook, classroom and language laboratory exercises. For me this was torture as it took away from the time I could devote to the science and mathematics I needed to concentrate on to pursue a career in medicine. I am now retired but I have been involved with teaching students in other fields of education. Three years ago I decided to learn French. As I see it, the availability of computerized language programs of different varieties with voice recognition software has been a tremendous advance in language learning. I began with Rosetta Stone and enjoyed the experience and found it to be very helpful and I am happy that I had that experience. I also spent three weeks in France at an immersion school. I subscribe to Yabla which for a conscientious person can simulate an immersion experience in France. I enrolled in News in Slow French and look forward to their weekly output. Of course I also bought a book on French grammar and studied that.

I love Rocket Spanish - I feel like I can speak the language quickly and even received compliments while just on the first few lessons - told someone in Spanish that I was learning and they said that I spoke very well and clear - I'm so excited to continue!

I've been using Rocket Languages for three days now. So far, I've been satisfied. My concern with self-studying was that I didn't have any conversation partner. I wanted to have a conversation partner online but I didn't think that we can have meaningful conversation since I'm only a beginner. However, the interactive audio course helped me out. I can practice a conversation while correcting my pronunciation and accent just based on what I've been studying. Other than the interactive audio course, I'm also pleased with the comprehensiveness of the whole program, from Premium Level 1 to Platinum Level 3. I've browsed and asked customer service about it; I can reach C1 with the whole program. Since my goal was to use Japanese in business, this was a really nice. Looking at the course material from Premium 1 to Platinum Level 3 and based on my 3-day experience, I can definitely reach N3 or maybe even N2/N1 with the program.

This was a really great and course and explains the meanings of the words thoroughly. However, I find that the sentence structure was not completely thorough enough but other than that this course has helped me understand spanish quite well.

I recommend this to anyone who would like to learn a new language fast and easy and on their own time. My experience has been great, learning when I want and how I want. Some days I focus on vocabulary and other days I just listen to the audio. This program is definitely a good way to get started with a language but real mastery will come from using the new language in the outside world but I believe this program can really help you achieve this.
