Rocket Spanish Reviews

When I was using Rosetta Stone, whenever I opened it (and I could always find access) it opened to wherever I had left off. That would all be very helpful for Rocket language to offer and it doesn't, or I don't know how to find it. Perhaps I could get some help.

Reviewed many language programs prior to purchasing rocket language program. By far rocket is the most comprehensive program. Truly enjoying the rocket experience. Gracias Sam Allen

Even though I have just started the Rocket Spanish course I can already say that it goes beyond many other Spanish training classes/software I have taken before. I have tried the other major products (Rosetta Stone, Pimsleur, CD's and books (yes, I have been trying on and off for 20 years), DuoLingo) and Rocket Spanish takes the best from each. I like how it explains the reasoning of why the grammar is the way it is (DuoLingo doesn't do that) and gives you practice in listening, reading, and speaking. That last one is the one I need to do more of... speaking. Once I get deeper into the courses I will write another review, but so far it is much more than I expected.

I decided to purchase Rocket Spanish Premium when I saw the recommendation from PC Magazine. What a terrific language course: well structured, varied and motivating. I would recommend the Rocket series to anyone.

So this is my third attempt (from different angles) at Spanish. I tried first a podcast (not enough repetition, nothing to read, no motivation to practice, no native speakers), I have been at an in person course (highly motivating, but all at the same pace), and now this.
I like a lot the native speakers, the speed of speech, and the repetition in various learning modes. The voice recognition works better than babble (which I briefly tried as well) but still stumbles sometimes. Good thing - rocket does not make this an issue, I can just progress over it.
I much appreciated the possibility first to try whether this format motivates me - before paying. As a German learner, I am ok with the strong US focus (likely the largest market): I'd love if you considered that there are learners with a different language background and learning experience as well. Like comparing Spanish with French or German.

I bought all 3 levels and just finished Level one. This is my first review and Im glad I waited until completing the first level because many of the areas that I thought were lacking have been addressed. I am very happy that so much info has been added in the language classes. Of course, the conversations are good, especially to practice listening, but without the language lessons all you are doing is memorizing phrases, which isn't all that useful in real life. I do the language lessons with a pen and legal pad at my side to take notes and write down important rules and vocabulary to review later. Before I move on to level 2 I intend to go back and repeat many of the individual language lessons. It was tempting to just run through the course and finish all the work as quickly as I could get the answers right, but, of course, a lot more effort in really studying and understanding the material presented is needed. Expect to spend several hours to even several days on each module reviewing new info, grammar and vocabulary if you really want to become conversant.

I started Rocket Spanish Level 2 last week. So far I’m super impressed. This program is extremely well produced, easy to use, and very effective. I am building on the basic Spanish course I took at a local college, so I decided to begin with level 2. It’s so much better than any of the other on line programs I’ve tried and previewed. And it’s an excellent value. I’m glad the program focuses on conversation, but also teaches important grammar rules and usage extremely well.

Great course!! I have learned so much more than I ever have in the past I love the way the lessons are set up I have seen so much growth and am so excited to see myself getting better.

I love RocketSpanish! It provides such great tools for learning a new language. I am a medical student learning Spanish for the purpose of actual conversation, and this program teaches me what I need to know! I love the design. It's very user friendly. I got it on Cyber Monday sale, definitely the biggest bang for my buck!

I would highly recommend these lessons. It is nice to be able to work at your own pace. The lessons are very easy to learn.
