Response from Rocket Languages
So glad to hear it, Addison. Keep up the great work with your French learning journey!
First, the positives: I love the Rocket Spanish Level 2. I had recently finished Rosetta Stone Spanish before I started it, and it was the perfect place to continue my studies and fill in gaps of vocabulary/grammar. I loved how the audio lessons have been perfect for making my commutes extremely productive and I particularly enjoyed how challenging the listen-and-repeat and real time translation tasks were in the Level 2 audio lessons. They prompted me to listen to a few lessons multiple times and really gave the listener the opportunity to try out new words and grammatical structures in different types of sentences.
Sadly, I was quite disappointed to find the audio lesson style changed almost completely for Level 3. I appreciate that the language of the conversations became more complex and fast-paced. However, the explanation of language points (especially grammar) has been very thin to nonexistent (I do understand there are self-paced grammar units, but these are obviously not delivered in audio format like they were in Level 2). Additionally, outside of the Rocket Review portion, the listen and repeat has mostly been focused on single words/phrases, and the real-time translation tasks (or listen-and-repeating in more varied grammatical contexts) are almost nonexistent. Unfortunately, this has made the audio lesson format feel quite passive and not challenging at all (except for listening comprehension).

Great to hear you enjoyed Level 2, Dave. We’re sorry to hear Level 3 didn’t meet your expectations, but we really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We’ll be passing it along to our team as we continue improving the course experience.
Add Spanish games like this game is boring and people do the same thing every time nothing fun

We’re sorry to hear that Rocket Spanish wasn’t as engaging as you’d hoped, Joseph. We’d really appreciate hearing more about how we could improve your experience—please feel free to reach out to our team with any additional feedback ([email protected]).
The voice recognition in the edge browser is terrible. I have to repeat 3-4 times to get a valid input and it randomly pulls up words that can no way be attributed to what I am saying. I'm working in a quiet room on a brand new laptop, so there is no excuse for it.
Response from Rocket Languages
Sorry to hear that, Karl! For the best experience, we recommend using Google Chrome, although Edge should also be compatible. Please reach out to our team ([email protected]) and we’ll be happy to investigate this further with you.

We’re glad to hear you’re enjoying Rocket Spanish! Wishing you all the best as you continue your language-learning journey.
Emphasis on pronunciation is nice, but the voice recognition is utterly horrible. It only works about 40% of the time on the first go. I find myself just skipping it because it's so bad.

Voice recognition is not very good. Results are erratic.

The words stated don't always match what google translate states
Response from Rocket Languages
Our lessons are designed to teach natural, conversational language rather than literal translations. Naturally there will be some difference with Google Translate and other translation software, but our goal is to help learners use the language in real-world contexts. For those phrases where a literal translation is necessary, you will see one on the bottom right of the phrase indicated by "lit." We appreciate your understanding!
It would help, when attempting to pronounce these words, that the phonetic pronunciation was included. I believe that would help me a lot.
Response from Rocket Languages
Thank you for the suggestion, Ronald! You’ll find a more phonetic breakdown of Spanish pronunciation in the first Rocket Spanish Language & Culture Lesson, which is located in the Intro Module. Keep up the great work!
You asked way too soon, I can't say just yet. Give me some more time
Response from Rocket Languages
Thank you for your feedback, Michael! We completely understand—language learning is a journey, and it’s great to give yourself time to explore the lessons before forming an opinion. Enjoy the process, and if you would like to update your review, contact our support team at [email protected].
