Rocket Spanish is pretty good. It's certainly better than other programs I have tried. Every so often it tests you on words you haven't learned. In one case it ends Module 1 with a survival kit of a list of 300 words, then assumes you know them in Module 2. This is ludicrous. One or two lessons refer to a beginners' book that is not included. The good part is the interactive call and response and the ability to easily go back and review lessons so you don't forget as much as you move on. Most words reoccur in several lessons so you don't forget. A few are not.

Super super super . First online I use for learning language. It is addictive , easy to use . canĀ“t stop studying. Exercising ( 1 to 1 with native speakers) will definitely help. To everyone : Writing , speaking aloud could be my suggestion.

The lessons are good, but I'm finding the speaking exercises very frustrating. The voice recognition does not work very well. The exercises require repeating over and over because the voice recognition is so poor. I'm not saying my pronunciation is great or anything, but it isn't as bad as the software shows. It slows down the lesson and makes it a drag.

Rocket Spanish is well organized and fairly easy to use. I definitely like the experience and the process. HOWEVER - They are very wishy-washy with the meanings of phrases. In an effort to teach you different phrases to say the same thing, the designers forget that words have meaning. For example, early in the lessons you discuss someone's job. They tell you that the question, "What do you do?" can be asked ?Que haces?, which is correct. Unfortunately, they also tell you that you can say, ?En que trabajas?, which is not correct. That phrase means, "What is your work?". It may sound like I'm knit-picking, bc in the context of the conversation, either phrase will do, but it is confusing when I don't know what you are asking for. In the testing, it asks me to say in Spanish "What do you you?", but it says that I was incorrect bc I responded ?Que haces?. - WHICH IS CORRECT!! The designer of the course wanted me to say ?En que trabajas?. The student isn't a mind reader, and when he/she tries to apply the words learned, it is easy to get confused. Again, words have meaning. It is lazy to say that it is "close enough", when it is in-fact no where near what you are trying to say.

Rocket Spanish is a fantastic product. I have used it for about 1 month and I am beginning to think is Spanish. I think this is really the key when trying to learn a language. The lessons are the right amount of material and very repeatable. I like that I can go back to a lesson at any time. Very happy with my purchase.

I don't want to write a review at this time because I'm having difficulty taking the course because of technical issues.
I am in the present in contact with technical support to resolve my issue. My issue is this: When I hear a Spanish word or phrase that I am to repeat using the little mike icon, it doesn't give me near enough time to complete the word before cutting out. So, the other icon comes up and say "please try again". I am very frustrated with this issue. I hope technical support can fix this.
This issue just started up this week. Otherwise, I really like the course overall, and plan to continue as soon as my issue is fixed.

The writing and recording features are very cool, and I like the audio clips for while I'm driving - I pair this with Pimsleur and find its a nice blend between textbook learning and audio learning thanks to the interactive lessons, plus being able to do it online is very helpful and gets my practice typing with the spanish keyboard.
