Rocket Languages
Rocket Languages is mostly an audio-based course that we have found to be extremely successful for learning any language. It's divided into three sections: the first two are all about learning the language, and they're done through a story that you listen to and then answer questions about. It brings the typically dry subject of language learning to life and is ideal for anyone who prefers to absorb knowledge through listening. What about a podcast, an audiobook, or a music playlist? Rocket should serve you well.
The 'Survival Kit,' the third component of Rocket's learning process, provides phrases and knowledge about certain scenarios that you might experience while traveling or dealing with people in your chosen language. So there are kits for shopping in a foreign nation, or for business meetings, and so on. They're quite useful tools.
Rocket's tendency to repeat itself is one of its flaws. While repetition is an important aspect of learning, it occurs far too frequently in this case. Another concern is the price, however it is no more expensive than competitors like as Rosetta Stone, so it is reasonably priced.
