Rocket Spanish Reviews

This is a very good program to learn Spanish , Latin American variation , not Castilian Spanish of Spain. I understand that this version of Spanish is more useful for Americans who probably make up the bulk of the clientele of people wanting to learn Spanish. This version of Spanish will allow people to travel in South America and make themselves understood there and in the South of Spain , where the majority of Spanish Emigrants left for a new life in the former Spanish Colonies. Cuba used to be the destination for economic migrants from the Spanish Peninsular until the Americans liberated , "stole" , the last colonies of Cuba , Puerto Rico and the Philippians, which was then impossible, after the Spanish American War of eighteen ninety eight, which caused then a profound soul searching of the Spanish People, on the loss of their colonies to the United States of America, and the birth of a new generation of Spanish Poets of 1898. That said, the language is useful, if you want to travel in the Republic of Argentina or Chile. It reminds me of the Spanish I was taught many years ago by my first Spanish Teacher who was a refugee from Chile. The only difficulty would be in speaking to a native of Madrid with their Castilian Accent. I recommend this course but hopefully the course creators will be able to tweak the program so it does not keep crashing in the recommended browser " Chrome " !

I was assigned by my employer to the only Spanish speaking country in Africa, so I started reading some quick guides and traveller's phrasebooks but after several weeks in country, I soon realized that I needed something much more comprehensive. I have previously used a more expensive language program to learn Thai when I was working in Southern Thailand, but Rocket Spanish had me understanding more, in a shorter time and I'm completely satisfied with the Rocket Spanish method. I recommend Rocket Spanish for anyone wanting to understand more and communicate more easily in Spanish! It's certainly working out well for me!

Relatively inexpensive one-time purchase, not a subscription that you have to keep paying for. Also a straightforward teaching method that tells you what is being taught, not making you guess/wonder. Lessons are clear- no ambiguity, no need to use a separate Spanish-English dictionary. Also the ability to record lessons to CD so you can play then in your car as you drive, without requiring you to watch pictures or animations. Also, Rocket Languages sends additional lesson tidbits via email - I haven’t seen that from anyone else. Lots of nice features in an effective learning package.

I have been learning Spanish for quite some time now, but was looking for something to help advance my talking and listening skills. I had considered Rosetta Stone, but that received mixed reviews. Impartial websites consistently gave great reviews for Rocket Spanish, and I can see why. It is quite pricey compared to some language courses (I think it was about £90 all in). That, however, is a fraction of the cost of Rosetta Stone, which doesn't let you keep your learning material after the year is up. With Rocket Languages, you get a lifetime of access to materials. There is an audio conversation at the start which introduces you to new words and phrases at a reasonable rate, then there are tests ranging from listen and repeat to listen and write. I like how you can "speak" to the characters by taking on the part of others and then listen to your conversation at the end. It is good to know how you sound when you speak Spanish. This is the best language course I have ever used and I don't hesistate to recommend it.

I just started, I have no idea how I could rate your software at the present time. I do like that the program seems that I will be able to read and write as well becoming fluent. I expect the flash cards will serve me well. I have used them quite frequently in the past.

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 . can´t stop studying. Exercising ( 1 to 1 with native speakers) will definitely help. To everyone : Writing , speaking aloud could be my suggestion.

Their customer service is awesome, I made a mistake on my purchase and they quickly resolved the issue! Awesome customer service! Their program is very content rich, I am excited to dig in and learn Spanish!

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.

I love the verbal play back Where is in English at the bottom as Spanish it to top that's great those phrases You should be able to have a star by that if you wanna replay To work when it later weeks I used a program on the road because I'm a commercial driver the filling my time while I'm on the road is a great little device
