Learn Spanish with Rocket Spanish!

Rocket Spanish is a 32 lesson interactive audio course that is designed to teach you to speak Spanish confidently and naturally in a little less than 3 months. The material in the course has been set up for intermediate and advanced Spanish students. If you’re a beginner then there is no need to get worried. Mauricio (the designer of the course) has designed the course in a way that a beginning Spanish student can conquer all the material as well. If you are a beginner, Mauricio has suggested that you tackle the Mega Verbs game last. This will allow the beginning Spanish students to build up their Spanish Speaking skills so that by the time they get to the Mega Verbs game they will be able to tackle it confidently.

Rocket Spanish Product Features:

This Rocket Spanish course has been designed to teach the Latin American version of Spanish and it offers a variety of ways to learn while having fun at the same time. It comes with three different games: Mega Audio, Mega Vocab, and Mega Verbs. The Mega Audio game has over a 1,000 Spanish words on various topics. Basically, you select a topic in which you are interested in learning about and an audio tract associated with that topic will be played. You listen to the audio tract and select 1of 6 pictures that are associated with that audio tract. When you select the correct picture you get 6 points and for every incorrect picture you lose a point. Mega Vocab is another simple game that teaches you over a 1,000 vocabulary words by allowing you to match English words to Spanish words. A really cool feature associated with this game is the feature that allows you to add your own pictures and Spanish-English words to those pictures. These new photos will then be added to the stock photos, which you will be tested on. This is a very good learning tool because you can take 15 minutes a day, play a game, and build your Spanish vocabulary. The final game that comes in the Rocket Spanish software package is MegaVerbs. MegaVerbs is a little more than just a game. This learning tool focuses on teaching you important verbs that you will use in everyday conversations in any Spanish speaking country. The hardest part of learning Spanish is learning the various tenses for each verb. Mega Verbs approaches this by showing you the verb, it’s English description beside it, and the tense that it wants you to translate the verb into. You then type the verb in it’s correct tense to receive credit for the question. The more you practice with this game the better you will get. This game will help you in your ability to write and communicate effectively with fluent Spanish speakers. The games that come in the Rocket Spanish package are only one of it’s many features.

In addition to the games, Rocket Spanish is also iPod and MP3 player compatible. Any of the audio lessons that come in the package can be downloaded as files to your itunes or computer and then transferred to your Ipod or MP3 player. This makes for a great learning tool while being away from your computer. Unfortunately, this software program does not support the personalized learning paths feature. Basically, limiting your ability to design your own study path. This software does provide you with plenty of ways to accurately assess what you have learned so far in a lesson through a variety of test and quizzes. Allowing you to recognize what you have learned and what you need to review.

The Rocket Spanish course is set up around several study features: image recognition, grammar lessons, audio lessons, and culture lessons. A couple features that the Rocket Spanish designers decided to leave out are speech recognition and video lessons. The speech recognition feature is a super valuable feature and is found in most of the other competitors products that we reviewed. The speech recognition software would allow you to work on your pronunciation of Spanish words. They do this by recording the way in which you pronounce a particular Spanish word and then tell you what you need to do in order to alter that pronunciation until you speak it correctly. This feature is one of the most valuable features that customers liked in the other software competitors. If you are interested in obtaining a software package that contains the speech recognition software then read our review on Tell Me More Spanish. The lack of video lessons in the package was a bummer but understandable once we realized that the course is based off of audio lessons. In addition, the course can be purchased at an unbeatable price of $99.95. So, the addition of hours and hours of video lessons would definitely raise the price!

Rocket Spanish covers all the teaching fundamentals that you would need to know in order to communicate effectively with any fluent Spanish speaker.
