Find out what actual users have to say about our courses through their Rocket Spanish reviews.
Rocket Languages are the very best platform I have tried for learning new languages. I have Japanese and Spanish and really enjoy using them daily. It's fun, and very well laid out, which keeps me interested and motivated to continue optimizing my abilities and goals. I would recommend Rocket to anyone I know!
I highly recommend Rocket Spanish as an introductory Spanish course. I'm able to access all prior lessons and review lessons as needed. I like the format -- listening to a practical conversation, breaking down the conversation, repeating back the conversation, (even rating my pronunciation!), spelling out the phrases, and the quiz! This approach truly is the best way for me to learn. Like other reviewers, I have tried other Spanish language online courses, and none have come close to what I have learned so far. I am super satisfied, and I feel this course is well worth the money.
I have been studying Spanish since high school however, I have not been able to comfortably carry on a conversation in Spanish. After using Rocket Spanish, I can more easily understand the native speakers around me. I am also able to carry short conversations with them.
It's refreshing to see something finally work for me. Thanks, Rocket Spanish!
Been using Rocket for nearly 2 months and very happy with this product which recognizes all types of skillsets and whose systems reinforce the learning (retention). I'm weaker in pronunciation so the microphone set-up helps a lot and the flexibility helps me keep going with it. Growing in knowledge and confidence and it suits me 11%. All good, no suggestions for improvement or negatives.
Everything you need to start learning Spanish. I have tried Fluenz which is great, but who has time to complete an hour or two long lesson every day?? With Rocket Spanish you determine what you need everyday. Great!
How satisfied are you with your Rocket Languages experience? I've had it for a week now and so far it is pretty good as a refresher. The various learning elements are long but it forces re-learning the material. The voice part leaves a bit to be desired as it doesn't always recognize what I am saying even though I know I am pronouncing correctly. I don't like that the Spanish for "I" is pronounced with the English "J" sound. I am used to the Spanish spoken by Mexicans. Other than that the pronunciation seems to be pretty good overall.
How likely are you to buy again? Yes, I would buy it again.
Are you happy with the price? Yes, I am happy with the price. Very reasonable for both level 2 and 3.
Would you recommend Rocket Spanish to a friend? Yes, I would buy it again.
How was the Customer Service? Haven't had to use Customer Service. Therefore, I rated 5 stars pending contacting them.
Its my first day to learn. I have bit background to this language. Now just familiarization and to continue learning the language more. Learning here through audio and written is satisfying. I would love to finish my free tutorial for a week. And hope to have the tutorial for more months. So exciting! Gracias Rocket Spanish Online for the tutorial.
It is a usefull language learning system, I especially like the MP3 files, however I have spotted a few problems with the website, these are: Unit = 2.11 the website says metro = Underground however it Should be = metro = meter & Underground = metropolitan Its ok to put in names & so not translate them - But not ok to say a name is a translation when it is not. Unit = 2.12 the website says Lavoro manuale = Labor however it Should be = Lavoro manuale = manual work & Lavoro = Labor Unit = 2.13 the website says Quant'è? = How much does it come to? however it Should be = Quant'è? = How much? & venuto a = come to Unit = 3.4 the website says Abbastanza = Fairly bad. however it Should be = male = bad Unit = 3.4 the website says Allora riposa e cerca di dormire. = Ok then, have a rest and try to sleep. however it Should be = Ok then, have a rest = Ok allora, avere un periodo di riposo Unit = 3.7 the Problem is English words on wrong (italian) side for: ham, cabbage & she arranges Unit = 3.7 the Problem is all più words have extra letters in them = più Unit = 3.7 the Problem is ' is confusing in It's hotter (more hot) today than yesterday.
As with any language, immersion and conversation will get you the farthest, but Rocket Spanish does a good job at giving you a wide range of vocabulary and practice with the spoken language. The reinforcement tools can seem tedious at times, but repetition and commitment is vital to learning a new language. Get it on sale and it is totally worth your time and energy.
I love all the different methods you learn: guided conversation or written language lesson, flash cards quiz, listen and repeat, writing, say answer and short quizzes. Definitely a great, interactive way to learn. Highly recommend this program, definitely the best one I have found (after a lot of searching).
My only negative is they need a flash card app for all of the sentences and vocabulary in the program (not each lesson) which remember how well you know each card (worse cards are seen more often - the flash card quiz doesn't do this).
Response from Rocket Languages
Thanks so much for your review, Scott. It's so great to hear that you are enjoying the course. I just wanted to let you know that in the Flashcards test, if you mark a word/phrase as Good or Hard, you will be given the opportunity to test yourself again on just those phrases, until you marked everything as Easy. I hope that helps!
