I'm going to tell you exactly how I finally managed to speak and understand French confidently and fluently by using an online multimedia course called  Rocket French.

Here's my story: My name is Violet Hoskins and like you I was searching online for a way to improve my French language skills. I had met some new French Canadian friends, and their first language was French. I decided I would really like to be able to communicate with them fluently in their native language.

I had studied French a little at high school, but that was a long time ago and I had completely forgotten everything but the basics - and I even struggled to remember those. Whenever my friends spoke French I didn't have a clue what they were talking about. I also felt a little guilty when they spoke in English just because of me .

However, in August 2008, I decided it was time for me to make a serious effort in learning how to speak French fluently.

But Learning French Was Going To Be Much Harder Than I Thought.

My first plan was to scour the local bookstore in search of a structured course or audio CD's which could teach me how to speak French like a native, but many of these packages seemed boring to study - and focused on time-consuming reading/writing skills which I had little use for.

I realized these are important topics to learn if I want to master the language, but the lack of speaking and listening exercises made it feel like it would take forever to understand and communicate with my new friends.

So I Turned To The Internet... 

The first product I came across was called "Rosetta Stone French". This is basically a software program which shows you pictures and tells you the French word which describes the object, or what is happening in the picture.

This seemed great at first, but the things I was learning didn't seem very useful to me, and there wasn't much structure to the teaching. It was also very expensive - I bought a package deal which contains all 3 levels for $549.

It was fun for awhile, but the novelty soon wore off and I didn't learn much to help me with my goal of learning to speak French confidently and fluently like a native.  

I also tried an expensive course called Pimsleur French. This also came in 3 levels, each costing around $225. These were solely audio CD lessons, and felt very dated and out fashioned. They were great for putting me to sleep - but barely had any effect on my French speaking skills.

Eventually, I found something that worked.

Having spent so much time, money and energy desperately trying to succeed with these expensive products, which ultimately had very little effect on reaching my goal, I decided to try one last product.

The next product I tried was called Rocket French.

I had never heard of it before and because of my recent experiences, I was initially a little resistant to investing money into anything else. But after reading lots of extremely positive reviews and the product's main claim being exactly what I was looking for, I decided to give it a shot.

What seemed to be so different with this program was that it made learning French fun and enjoyable. The previous programs really felt like work, and I never felt like I was getting anywhere.

But the interactive nature of Rocket French kept me entertained, while teaching me to understand and speak the kind of "real" French I wanted to learn.

Here's why I recommend it.

The reason why I recommend Rocket French is because it teaches you to understand and speak the kind of "real" French you want to learn. It is also a very interactive package, with structured audio lessons as well as entertaining games. 

On their website they claim the Rocket French package can teach you to speak French confidently and naturally in less than 8 weeks.

Although it did take me a few weeks longer that it says on the website, I have managed to boost my French understanding and speaking skills through the roof, which I'm sure you'll agree is pretty astonishing in just over 2 months. I'm almost at the stage of talking fluently with my new French friends - and they're really impressed!

In my opinion, this is superior and far more effective than any of the other products I tried. Obviously everyone is different but this has worked extremely well for me.

The general idea with the Rocket French course is to follow the audio lessons, and use the games to boost your vocab and listening skills.  

What could be simpler? You don't even have to study for hours each day which is required for some courses.

Anyway, I hope you've found this information useful whatever your situation because if I had known about Rocket French a few months back, I would have improve my French speaking skills in less than half the time, and saved myself lots of wasted time and several hundred dollars with all these other products. I wish you every success!

Sincerely,

Violet Hoskins
