Rocket French Reviews

As a serious learner, the conversation part is great, but if there will be more explanation on grammar such as verbs' conjugation, that will be fantastic. I read lots other reviews which mentioned that it's great if learners prepare other grammar books when using Rocket Language, and I totally agree with those opinions. With nouns in extra vocabulary section, it's better to add "le" or "la" to show words' "gender". Sometimes I have to rely on other material to check the "gender". I need more explanation or patterns to show verbs' conjugation. That will be great if there will be a chart displayed with examples.

Rocket French seems to be doing well teaching me introductory french. It is very in depth compared to the free resources for learning french out there. Sometimes the audio lessons have a little too much chit chat for my liking, but on the positive side it follows an amusing story and often explains the new words and phrases well. Not a huge fan of the vocal recognition exercises as they are not always accurate. Overall, happy with my purchase and already feeling much more confident about my french skills!

A very easy program to follow. Immerses you in the language slowly, but the listener is able to pick up quickly. Pronunciation by both instructors allows listener to pick up accent easily. Recording feature gives listeners the chance to hear their voices speaking the language and helps one practice getting the accents (but it doesn't happen in one day). Quizzes and writing exercises gives the student an opportunity to write in the language as to be able to read periodicals and newspaper which will increase vocabulary.

Hello everybody,

Being an enthusiastic of languages, I have just started learning French, taking profit of my holidays on August. I already learned other languages online (like Chinese) but my first impression of this Rocket French site is awesome. The more of it, the step-by-step guide for each lesson and the chance to study at whatever time I choose. That give me some freedom and let me put efforts when I really have time. I am considering buy the premium subscription but firstly I would like to move on my first lessons to check that everything can fit with my time schedule when I go back to work.

i really appreciate the chance to speak the words and have the rocket language program rate my pronunciation! this has helped me learn how to speak much better. my biggest problem previously has been that i have been bringing my english pronunciations to my attempts to speak french. also the interplay between paul and claire on the audio lessons have been amusing enough to keep me occupied and interested.

I like the clearly structured way that the lessons are organised, with plenty of opportunity to practise the key points of the lesson. The voices are usually quite clear which makes it easier to understand the French that one is trying to translate. Very motivating.

I decided to try Rocket French because I wanted to learn some french before a trip to Ecuador.but i failed because it's so priceless to me .. i'm young and i don't have money we live in africa you know these country ... finally who can help me and share with me i will be very thankful for him .. i'm wating fo you Guys

This software is great not just for beginners, but for those who may have known French at one time and are trying to pick it up again (like me). I LOVE the audio courses, they are fun, easy, and have a tongue-in-cheek tone not usually seen in these types of classes. I would wait for a holiday to come around so you can get a discount on the price, but otherwise I really like this course!

Just returned from France, and I must say that the course is extremely helpful in allowing one to communicate with native speakers in that language. Of course, it was much easier to speak the language than understand it, but overall, I thought I did pretty well. I certainly do recommend this course, and while it will not make one absolutely fluent, it will allow one to really to speak with native speakers. I can say for sure that the French people really appreciate the attempt that Americans make to speak their language. I was told that on multiple occasions.

I find this to be so engaging and helpful. I appreciate the opportunity to speak, read and write for each lesson. The information is presented in a manner that is relevant and at the same time advancing one's understanding of the language. I have started practicing this with my French colleagues that I will be working with and it is working! Merci!
