I have learnt more Portuguese in 3 weeks than I learnt French after 5 years of formal didactic teaching in school. I am quite surprised by how eager I am to take the next lesson and also by how the badge system actually keeps me motivated. I would definitely recommend to this product to a friend or anyone looking to learn a new language!!
I took on learning German as part of my research for a trip to Germany. It was amazingly easy to pick up the basics of the language. I truly believe that since I put in an honest effort to speak the local language, the people we met treated us much more favourably than on any other cultural holiday we had been on. Because I could speak some German, Germany as a culture, a destination, and a learning experience was far greater than I could have anticipated. It has become my most memorable holiday.
Let me tell you guys, Paul and Nik, I'm very very excited about Rocket Languages, it's the best place on web I've ever found before, your pronunciation, your methods, I really want to speak German fluently someday, and I think personally with you guys and this amazing place I'll get it. Deutsch es ist mein Lieblingssprache, danke schön, tschüss.
Rocket Languages is a program designed for beginners to easily comprehend how to pronounce the words. You might have to run through the lesson a couple of times though, but that's to be expected from any form of learning.
I really do like the program - my only problem is not having enough time to use it consistently. I like that it doesn't focus on JUST the sounds or JUST the words - it does both. I am the kind of person who likes traditional language study where you are learning spelling, pronunciation and grammar all at the same time. This is good at covering all three.
I like to learn Chinese online with Rocket Chinese. Because here are very interesting topics and lessons, has possibilities to see and to read the phrases that are frequently used in everyday life and can to hear very clear pronunciation of native speakers.
This course does a good job of giving a structured set of lessons as well as lots of nice extra material. It gives good basics on pronunciation, writing, as well as some grammar and cultural information. Very useful for getting a good foundation which you can use to start studying more on your own. I will consider getting the second part of the course, but at this point I feel I can begin to branch out on my own as well with the tools I have.
It's such a fun learning and the way the lessons are set really helps to memorize the words and sentences. Thanks to 'Mauricio' and the record option I can work on my pronunciation. And who doesn't like to receive badges as an additional motivator to finish the lessons? I also like the cultural information they provide here and there.
Hola,
I have just purchased the Rocket Spanish lessons and want to let you know how impressed I am with all the material that is offered. I was just about to buy another lesson from Pimsleur, when I heard the podcast on iTunes about this program. I tried a few other programs on line...they're good but nothing compares to RS. Your program offers the whole package. Great audio, written work, testing, lots of reference material available and love the role playing conversations. It seems to me that who ever put this program together knew what they where doing. Also it's affordable.
Thanks.

I used Rocket Languages as a valid help in learning languages. It is incredible how fast you can learn with only 30 minutes a day. I am learning Mandarin, and, believe me, the course is great. Do not pay too much attention to who tells you learning Chinese is impossible, and online courses do not work. You should see the face of my Chinese colleagues and customers when they hear me speaking Mandarin. Now, they are the ones who think: "That's impossible!"
