Why Rocket Russian?
We take you to the heart of the Russian language and give you everything you need to understand the language and the culture like a local.
With Rocket Russian, you'll...
Have lifetime access to your course.
The Russian language can be yours for life, and we believe your Russian course should be too. With Rocket Russian, you can come back in a month, a year or even a decade and still have full access to your courses. You'll also get all of the updates and improvements that we make for free!
Perfect your pronunciation.
If you can pronounce words in Russian correctly, then you know you'll be understood by the locals - which is why we teach you to talk just like they do. With Rocket Russian, you can check your pronunciation using our state-of-the-art voice recognition system and listen to thousands of useful words and phrases recorded by real Russian speakers.
Practice on-the-spot speaking.
Many new language learners feel nervous about talking to native speakers, so we've created the perfect activity to address this problem. It lets you practice both sides of common Russian conversations in a comfortable, stress-free environment, so that you're ready to respond when you're out in the real world.
Remember what you cover.
You'll put a lot of time into learning Russian, so we make sure you can remember it all by including fun and engaging activities in every lesson. These activities use algorithms to identify where you're having trouble and help you practice problematic words and phrases until they stick.
Learn how Russian actually works.
Knowing a few set phrases in Russian can be helpful, but will only get you so far in real-life situations. We take you step by step through how the language works so that you can build sentences on your own and actually take part in conversations.
Train your ears as well as your mouth.
When you first hear someone speak in Russian, you may find it hard to make out even a single word. Rocket Russian comes with tons of downloadable audio tracks that train your ear to the Russian language.
Learn to both read and write in Russian.
Russian comes with the added challenge of using a non-Latin alphabet, which can make even simple tasks like reading street signs difficult for learners. That's why we include a whole series of lessons devoted to teaching you how to both read and write using the Russian alphabet
Be ready to blend in with the locals.
Communicating and connecting with people in another language isn't just about using proper grammar - it's also about understanding another culture. We get you ready for this with lessons on everything from greetings and foods to holidays and local customs in Russia.
Get courses tailored for the Russian language.
A lot of other courses out there take a cookie-cutter approach, using the same template for every language they teach. At Rocket Languages, we understand that no two languages are exactly alike! That's why we've carefully crafted Rocket Russian to include what's practical, relevant, and useful for the language you are learning.
Stay on track and stay inspired.
Motivation is key to learning a language, so we make sure to provide you with a wide array of motivational tools and techniques. They'll keep your interest up and your focus sharp so you can meet your goals and make better progress.

I have a hard time finding Russian classes in my area and in-person tutoring services cost $40/session. No thanks. After trying more memorized-based programs, I stumbled across Rocket Russian and it's like a class that I can control at my own pace! It's challenging, full of information, and is one of the first programs that has me really speaking t...

I have been searching for a Russian language app that allows me to learn to speak Russian at least to a good conversational standard, but which also lets me learn to read and write the associated Cyrillic script at the same time as learning to speak the words ... only Rocket Russian seems to allow you to do all three things at the same time!

I took the free course in Rocket Russian and I must say that taking just the free lessons I have learned how to say some important Russian phrases and I am able to speak those phrases just like a native speaker. Just a few days ago I didn't know even the first word in Russian. However just after a few lessons I can say several words. Rocket Russi...

Living in regional Australia, I am unable to undertake formal Russian language studies, but this is the next best thing. It manages to cover all the essential language skills which is something I haven't found in a lot of self-directed courses. Self-directed teaching means my speaking and listening skills need extra attention to ensure I am always ...
