I like the program setup for double checking the phrases. My biggest difficulty is thinking in French while learning Spanish. French is easier for me.
Just started Rocket Spanish, after getting great results with Rocket German. Both courses are super! Now I'm learning to speak, not just read and write German, and quickly Spanish, too. The narrators' voices are sympathetic, and also very kind and sincere. Lots of cultural things to learn in the background. I'm learning languages mostly to sing and am achieving a lot there, too. Let's all enjoy learning. My lifestyle motto is: Live and Learn! Die and Lie!
This is a great course that makes it easy to follow and great to learn. I like it.
I have tried to learn Spanish for some time. Had used another popular online program and definitely increased vocabulary, but failed to see real progress. I love Rocket Spanish! It is cost efficient. I can go at my own pace, without feeling guilty or having a certain amount of time, and I am learning!! I love the various modes incorporated into this program! So many opportunities to practice!
I have bought other programs but I felt I have not progressed as fast as I have with Rocket Spanish. I definitley will recommend it to friends and family.
I have completed 4 lessons so far. My experience has been good. I like the pace and length of the lessons. I am looking forward to continuing to build on my expweience.
It says to write something awesome about Rocket languages. I can't. The voice recognition is absolutely terrible. I have changed the setting from default, to "Easy" and to "Hard", and it still doesn't recognise half of what I say. I can't complete the exercises properly because it fails to recognise most speech. It marks me down. It is REALLY slowing down my progress. I have tried: emphasising words with clear enunciation, speaking louder and softer, and speaking slowly. Still most of the time, even with simple words like "soy" and "doctor" it interprets them a something completely and randomly different, even with vowel sounds that aren't in the words. The rest of the time I just get the message that it "didn't catch that". I don't have a speech impediment. So should this review really give such low grading JUST because of one thing, the speech recognition? Yes, because the speech recognition is used in about 80% of the course sections.
Response from Rocket Languages
Response from Rocket Languages: Thanks so much for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that you're having trouble with the voice recognition. If you're not already, we strongly recommend that you use a headset to record yourself. If you are using your inbuilt mic, then it's likely that it will be picking up lots of background noise, and affecting your results. If you continue to have trouble, please contact our customer support team on [email protected]
I rely on seeing the words as well as hearing them. This is integrated throughout. I enjoy immediately learning to pronounce the words and spell the words correctly. It is fun and interactive throughout.
I feel like I am already learning and understanding some Spanish.
I had tried another language program which did not work for me.
So this program is a pleasant change
I am early on in the lessons but, already having "un poco" Spanish, I am finding the lessons to be of not a lot of use, so far. I am hoping that will improve as I progress through them. However, I must say that the speech recognition facility is woeful!
I am unable to rate "Customer Service" as I haven't had any.
