Rocket Languages Reviews

I am an intermediate French student, but I am starting with the beginner lessons as review because I rarely have an opportunity to listen to native French speakers or to practice speaking. I am finding the lessons very helpful to develop my "ear" and my accent. The explanations of the grammar points within the dialogues are very clear and the opportunities to practice speaking are great.
I have used several online French courses and this is by far the best, though Babbel is quite also.

Purchased the Spanish language and find it very straightforward. Takes you through step-by-step and it's fairly interactive too. Lots of opportunities to test yourself and you can go at your own pace.

Just beginning to use Rocket Spanish and so far I like the ability to use the information in conversation, rather than just seeing endless words and phrases that generally wouldn't get used in everyday life. Much of what is taught in standard school is basic/background, which is necessary, but this helps relate to real life.

The lessons are the perfect length about 20 minute conversation. The fun dialogue between Alex and Maria keeps it very enjoyable. I have been practicing what I have learned so far with my Italian exchange student and I am doing good!!

I am very impressed with how easy the course is. Love the fact that they break down the conversations into sentences, where you can repeat a little at a time. Makes it easier to learn the words and how they should sound. Looking forward to being able to speak in Spanish on our next trip to Mexico

When I first started learning Italian, I thought long and hard before purchasing an online learning package. I did a serious amount of research, but kept coming back to the same option. Don't get me wrong there are some really useful free courses/utilities out there, but in my opinion nothing is as comprehensive as Rocket Italian. That said, it's still worthwhile to use other apps/utilities in conjunction with this course. The more you can immerse yourself in your new language the better!

With Rocket Italian, I especially like the way all aspects of learning a new language are taught and consolidated. Using different written, spoken, listening and flashcard testing. If you're true to yourself when learning, and don't cheat, the tools provided are excellent. It's also a good idea to go back and repeat lesson's on a regular basis to confirm that you're remembering what you've been taught.

On top of that I think Rocket Italian is competitively priced and you get quite a bit for your money. With all said though, you'll only get your moneys worth if you're willing to stick at it and put the effort in to learning your chosen language.

Learning Italian through Rocket Languages has been a breeze compared to other methods I have tried so far. The possibility of actually speaking the language, participate in a conversation, write the words and sentences is a perfect mix. In my own pace I can make myself acquainted with new words and sentences and if necessary repeat exercises until I'm completely familiar with them. In addition, the theory provides more (relevant) insight on how to use the language. It's been great so far! I'm looking forward to new languages being developed by Rocket Languages.

One point for improvement could be that upfront the order of the different lessons would be explained a bit more. Now, I started with 1.1 to 1.5 and then went on with 1.6 to 1.9, only to find out that 1.1 correspondents with 1.5 and 1.2 with 1.6 and so on. So for logical reasons its better to alternate between the two sections.

I have contacted the customer service of Rocket Languages once, and they were rapid and supportive in their response helping me with the inquiry I had. Such interaction strengthens the confidence that any questions in the future will be resolved quickly and adequately. I'm moving quite fast through the first module of Italian and am definitely considering to buy module 2 and 3 later on.

I’m very impressed by the ease of presentation, the many tools available for listening, reading, and writing the language, and the useful conversational vocabulary. I have studied several other languages but none have been so enoyable as the Spanish Rocket course I am taking. I will be well prepared for my trip to Spain next summer.

I am truly enjoying this language learning program. I like that the audio lessons involve you and make you come up with the answers on your own before supplying them to you. I feel that this is really helpful because that is the hardest part for me when speaking Spanish. I am starting to be able to understand spoken conversation better, but have a hard time coming up with the words myself. I feel very inadequate at times because I say Si a lot and not much else at this point. But, I know that progress takes time and reviewing the flash cards every day really helps and I like that you can put them into categories of hard, good and easy and then you can just review the hard ones. I like that you can measure your progress along the way, I like the scoreboard that keeps things interesting and you can see how you compare to other learners. I really like everything about this course. Living abroad in Panama is definitely helpful because I hear spoken Spanish on the daily, but I believe that with a lot of effort this course would also be great for people that don't have as much exposure. There are so many ways to get that elsewhere through music or TV shows. Netflix has so many shows that have Spanish subtitles. Anyway, I highly encourage everyone to get this course! Oh, and I also use Rosetta Stone. I like the combination of the two programs, but if I could only get one I would purchase this one over Rosetta.

Rocket Japanese is really helping me learn. I've been around Japanese martial arts most of my life and always wanted to communicate in Japanese with some of our visiting instructors. I'm not quite ready yet, but I am definitely headed that way, thanks to your program. And, I've started a Trip to Japan coin can. Tokyo by 2020!!
