Rocket Languages Reviews

I have been working with the free trial for over a month, and even using it every day, there was a lot of free material given to really get a "feel" for the course. I have fallen in love with it, and just purchased the Premium Package today. For me, speaking and understanding are my weakest points, and in my opinion, this is where Rocket Language outshines every other program. Those "live" role-playing exercises are intense, and really give me a rush when I can successfully get through even the level one part of the conversation.
My only issue is having to use Chrome, I was on Chrome when I tried to purchase the package, and it kept screwing up my information, I finally had to go over to Safari and purchase it there, then go through switching the program to Chrome - it was irritating.
However, that is a minor complaint concerning the purchase and log-in process and has nothing to do with the amazing content Rocket has to offer.
Also, I have to add, while I was having hassles with the login, I called customer support and they are absolutely amazing! No robots, I got to a real person right away who fixed the issue immediately, was nice and funny and very friendly.

I have a lot of fun learning a new language on this website because of the little achievements that you can get. Usually I never liked learning another language, like in High School, because it was so boring, but somehow it is more fun and enjoyable on this website. Also, the interface is really easy to navigate, making the experience even better.

I have tried alternative programs to learn French many times in the past, but have constantly struggled with pronunciation. As an English and German speaker, extraneous letters always caused me trouble. I find that the Rocket course really hammers the pronunciation home, and I'm finally starting to get a hang of it. My progress in the short time I've been working with Rocket has been pleasantly shocking and I'm very excited to see how far I can go.

In addition to the wonderful course, I've found customer service to be impeccable. They respond very quickly, and personally, something which is hard to find in other large companies.

After trying different language suites, text books and audio programs, I must admit that I could have saved a lot by starting out with rocket. The different features such as writing exercises and quizzes are something the program has over other systems.
I do find the goading unnecessary, however, whereby I'm referring to the pricing politics during the free trial. For 6 days they flashed me pop-ups, that I could save half the price of the $400 package. Then, right after I finally purchased the suite, I see yet another limited offer, which would have saved me an additional $30. That makes me question the integrity of the service, although I haven't regretted my purchase to date. Why flash the $400 price tag, like you are bartering at a Turkish bazaar?

The American accent spoken by Alex reminds me of fingernails and a chalk-board. But the Itialian speakers dominate the course. I feel confident reccommending Rocket Italian to others seeking to achieve conversational proficiency.

I was both very pleased and surprised with Rocket Languages. Never has learning a language felt so effortless. The combination of many different learning styles is very helpful, and really helps immerse yourself in the language and experience. The voice recognition algorithm is a great learning tool, and really makes me feel like I am being taught by an instructor. This fully interactive learning experience is great for teaching the language, and keeping your recall and memory of what you’ve learn sharp. I would highly recommend to friends and family over competition companies like Rosetta Stone. Each Unit is a very personalized and useful audio lesson, where you take part in the experience from start to finish. Then you are not only told vocabulary but encourage to rehearse it verbally and in writing. The various drills used to check for proper spelling and enunciation was a huge help to me while learning Russian. I’ve already improved my Russian understanding and verbal abilities by 20% of what they used to be when using free platforms found online. It just isn’t that same or as instructive as the service offered by Rocket Languages. The community here with Rocket Languages is great also.

I am taking the German level 1. I did study German in school 30years ago. That said I haven't used it since so that is alot of rust. The we learned back then was vocabulary then simple sentence like 'See Spot run.'. I felt that this was more converstational and more useful than 3 years of highschool German. I also like the fact they give you some normal German saying versus the formal style I learned. I feel after lesson 1, I could atleast not embarass myself and look forward to building on that foundation.

I learn French and I really love the system of Rocket Languages! The independence gives me a sense of freedom. I can decide what I want to learn next and when and where I would like to improve my knowledge.

The course program is well-organized and easy to use. The advanced learning techniques are well thought out and the design and quality are convincing. I have fun and I do feel the success in learning French.

This curriculum is good...better than the R.S. course. I am able to learn Italian at my own pace, in my spare time, and I can listen to courses while commuting. I appreciate how the curriculum forces conversation, which aides in faster learning. I bought the first Rocket Italian course and I have used it for hundreds of hours. What a great value! I will be buying the next 2 courses soon!

J'aime Rocket français parce que cela me permet de parler non seulement lire les mots d'un livre . chose que je que ce site sera une croissance monumentale pour moi. Merci pour la création de ce site .

I love Rocket French because it allows me to speak not just read the words from a book. I thing that this website will be a monumental growth for me. Thankyou for creating this website.

As a serious learner, the conversation part is great, but if there will be more explanation on grammar such as verbs' conjugation, that will be fantastic. I read lots other reviews which mentioned that it's great if learners prepare other grammar books when using Rocket Language, and I totally agree with those opinions. With nouns in extra vocabulary section, it's better to add "le" or "la" to show words' "gender". Sometimes I have to rely on other material to check the "gender". I need more explanation or patterns to show verbs' conjugation. That will be great if there will be a chart displayed with examples.
