Rocket Languages Reviews

I have tried Rosetta Stone in the past as well as Duolingo and Babbel. I feel that Rocket Languages has been the most beneficial out of all of the ones that I named previously. I really like the amount of content as well as the reinforcement that you get from previous lessons as you go forward. Another great feature is the ability to download the conversations. I have also noticed that as your progress the speed at which they speak increases. This is really nice because it gives you a chance to attune your ears to the language when it is being spoken at a faster speed.

I definitely liked the price point of this program compared to Rosetta Stone. You definitely get more bang for your buck with this program. The amount that I have picked up on in just a couple of weeks has been awesome. Would highly recommend this product!

I've been spending almost half a year in Brazil for 3 years and my language skills are minimal. I moved here permanently and got married two months ago, time to get serious. The two live teachers I've tried just haven't worked out, this looks promising! Looking forward to cracking the language nut!

This program is the best. I have used the Pimsleur course for Spanish and although it is a good program for purely memorization of phrases, it does not teach you the language or explain the verb conjugations or sentence structure. I used the Italian program for my trip to Italy and it was wonderful. Some people actually thought i spoke the language fluently and I had to stop them and slow it down. The program was worth every penny.
I am now using the Spanish program and the difference in my understanding of the language and the speed with which I am learning it as compared to Pimsleur is unbelievable. If you want a program to learn a language and you are willing to put in the time and effort, this is your program.

Rocket Languages teach you all the essentials to begin engaging in conversation right away. They emphasize that you do not need to know 100% of the words in order to understand and hold a conversation. The methods used help you to mimic a native speaker and give you the confidence to start speaking in a foreign language organically unlike other language learning programs that teach you somewhat useless phrases.

I just decided to learn Spanish--I'm 60! I'm actually shocked at how much I've learned in just a few weeks. I'm also raring to learn more--Rocket Spanish has produced an exemplary way for motivating learning. Thanks Rocket Spanish! The only reason I chose 3 stars for wanting to buy again is that I've already purchased all three levels. :)

I had some background studying German in college and living there a couple of years courtesy of the US Army. But that was quite a while back. Now, I decided as a hobby to brush up and improve my German skills. This is an excellent tool to assist me in this goal. One interesting thing is that I have a lot of background noise where I live; however, the speech recognition is able to do a very good job except when one of our pet birds squawks. All of the speakers but one speak very clearly and slowly so you can catch the appropriate pronunciation. I provided feedback about one speaker who speaks so softly that it is hard to distinguish sounds, but this is probably something you could easily encounter in speaking to a native German. The application is very good for grammar understanding and building a vocabulary; however, it has been good for my learning to supplement the course with some German short stories at my level to better learn expressions and dialog in different situations and locations. Overall, I am very pleased with the course.

I've taken several French online learning courses both free and for fee. This one definitely is the best for my learning style. It attends to all aspects of learning a new language...reading, writing, listening, and speaking. None of the other courses come close to teaching all of these aspects nearly as well. I recommend this course without reservation. Even if you buy it at full price, it's a great deal. I Love Rocket French!

I will be travelling to China in August to study Mandarin and attend an immersion course for 4 weeks. Rocket Chinese has helped me progress so much over the last month as I have committed to a daily routine of 30 minutes, consistent study and I can really notice the improvement in my knowledge and understanding. The great thing about Rocket Chinese is that I can listen and practice the Audio conversations while I'm driving! This will definitely give me a great foundation to work from for when I commence further mandarin studies in China!!

I had done basic French in High School and University. The conversational approach to practice in my home at my pace is very good for building my phrasing and vocabulary. It may seem silly, but I now know how to ask someone to speak more slowly. An hour a day is simply time for myself and a lesson is complete. I think if you have never studied French a lesson being done more than once may be needed. And that is easy to do with this program.

Pleasantly surprised with Rocket French! I've been doing a lesson a day for just over a week and am very pleased with the content and the focus on listening and speaking rather than written French. The humour is great, I find the English guy very funny. Am hoping the rest of the course is as good as what I've seen so far.
