Rocket Languages Reviews

Thirty years ago, I used Pimsluer tapes purchased by my employer and local university continuing education classes that they paid for. I did obtain sufficient fluency at the time which worked well traveling to Mexico. But, "use it or lose it" caught up to me. I want to regain where I was and go further. With Spanish podcasts, other Internet options and Spanish cable channels, "using it so as not to lose it" is more available. And, I now have some "locals" who I know that have Spanish as their first language or, are like me, and "don't want to lose it" again. We meet every week to have coffee or tea and to chat with each other. It is a great way to meet new people and to bring people together! Finally, en español, "Deseo hacer un viaje a Ecuador y las islas de Galapagos, y tambien, un viaje a Costa Rica con "Habitat for Humanity". Me gustaria hablar en su lengua."
¡Muchas gracias, Rocket Spanish! ¡Amy and Mauricio "Rock It"!

I am excited to receive Rocket Languages and begin learning Spanish!!!!!!

I've been using Rocket Italian since about March 2019 and I purchased the program because I am required to pass a language exam. I purchased all 3 levels and if you are someone traveling to Italy or learning basic conversational skills this program is great. However, if you have more intermediate needs this program is just ok. It would be nice if there were more breakdowns of the conversations once you get more advanced and provide simple words or phrases to translate. While building skills, the program will ask you to learn the verb to have and memorize extremely long sentences in the same lesson. This happens most lessons and is ineffective for my learning because it doesn't help you practice the skill and learn competency but memorization.

One of the tenses used most often in my work is the historic past and this tense is the one with the least information and preparation. Beyond that, what I've noticed is that the program pushes you to learn specific meanings of words. For example, in one lesson that began with the word "well" I responded with a translation of dunque. The program marked me wrong and was looking for allora. Both are acceptable translations and I am likely to come across both.

I've only been using Rocket Korean for about a week but I can already see (or hear) so much progress. I am learning because I love Korean media and to surprise a friend of my mine eventually. I definitely recommend this product.

I like that this app teaches you how to speak the language and breaks down the pronunciation, a lot of other apps just stick to learning the alphabet and single words. I feel I am getting somewhere in learning Korean with this app.

I tried other apps with little success. Rocket Language is a different story. I'm learning German more quickly and comprehensively. There is a perfect blend of hearing, speaking, and writing. My goal is to be conversational during my trip to Austria in the summer. We shall see!

I am a linguist, a teacher of foreign languages and a native speaker of Spanish. This platform is a good resource to add to one's learning tools and it is a very good way to keep the language alive. I was skeptical at first of this electronic platform, but then I became almost addict to it. It works if you put your heart and soul in acquiring your target language. Well done!

I am so happy with this product! I've learned so much over the course of several months. It is well worth the price, especially if you can get it on sale. Customer service deserves much love as well! Both times I've contacted them and they were able to fulfill my requests no questions asked. Thank you, Rocket Language!

I had been using another online Italian course for about 6 months without being able to converse confidently with my Italian family even though I had learnt 1000 words. I then started looking online at alternative recommended courses and was introduced to Rocket Italian and began their free trial. It was just what I was after and I had little hesitation in signing up for all 3 levels, especially given the very attractive discount pricing. I am now 3 weeks into the course and thoroughly enjoying it! My Italian family have noticed the difference as well.

I am just staring this class but it is wonderful.
