Rocket Mandarin Chinese Language Software comes from the reputed Rocket Language group. I think they have very aptly named it Rocket Chinese. It is the course to learn Chinese at the rocket speed. The entire course is designed to take you from a novice to an intermediate level Chinese speaker in a period of two months. This is exceptionally good for those who don’t have the time to learn all the intricacies of grammar of any language. You will learn how to speak, read and write Chinese in no time.
When I started learning Chinese, my biggest difficulty was learning Chinese grammar and vocabulary. Chinese is a symbolic language. Each character has its own meaning that can vary. Add to that the difficulty of learning pronunciation. Rocket Chinese has some very effective solutions to this. Their audio courses and software are designed to teach you how to learn spoken Chinese. Their grammar lessons cover up the various aspects of language in an easy/fun manner. You can load up the audio lessons and listen to them in the car or even while you are going out for jogging. The computer games make learning vocabulary a fun filled exercise.
As with other online courses, Rocket chinese language offers you the advantage of learning at your own pace. You can spend more time on lessons that you find hard or just skim through the easier ones. One big advantage that this course offers over others is that they have an active forum. This forum has Chinese native members, Chinese speaking teachers, fellow members like you. This forum helps you solve your issues as well as get personal coaching.
Rocket Chinese is the best course for learning Chinese fast, however it covers all advanced topics too. Once you are done with the initial sessions Rocket Chinese takes you into depth of grammar, pronunciation, colloquial usage etc.
I think I have recommended this course enough. I strongly suggest you to check their website content for yourself. The entire package is priced at $99 and is instantly downloadable. To me that is more than a fair value for the stuff it offers. In comparison to the other top three recommendations this course offers the best value for money and a real good learning experience.
