"Pleasant learning experience"

What do you dislike about Rosetta Stone?

I wish there was a vocabulary list with each lesson. Sometimes it's hard to know that the meaning of some words are solely based on the picture provided. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Useful though frustrating at times"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Rosetta Stone?

The use of images in the program lifts Rosetta Stone above the levels of other language learning programs, helping to create mental associations between images and words. Most useful for vocabulary and best paired with a conversational program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rosetta Stone?

The coursework is highly repetitive, and you have to work through quite a bit of material that has little real-life applicability before reaching anything useful. You'll be memorizing the words for "child", "boy", "girl", "run", "milk", "water," etc. for many an hour before reaching anything conversational level. There is also a tendency for the program to run into errors that can cause you to lose your progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Honestly the Best Way to Learn a New Language"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Rosetta Stone?

As a Linguistics student in college, I know that a simple word exchange does not work in retaining a language which is why I love how Rosetta Stone teaches you. They provide new vocabulary in connection with an image or video on the action, which your brain then associates with that item and not with the word you already know. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rosetta Stone?

I wish the price were a bit lower, but honestly, with the level of customer support and the quality of the lessons that you receive it's definitely worth it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good for learning basics!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Rosetta Stone?

I like that the layout is very defining, no chance to get confused or mistaken. As a new learner, its courses are very interactive with image and several media. Courses are not that long, which it is good for someone who is trying to learn the language in a fast pace. A great feature that helps during the courses are the repeat course option, which let you do the course again in case you didn't feel comfortable no the first try. Overall, this language learning system is a great tool for the purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Rosetta Stone?

I dislike the fact that for every language you need to pay a lot. Instead of creating a big pack of languages and selling them as a whole and not as a individual language. Also, the way you configure each language could be very difficult for someone who does not handle well a computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
