Rely on the Rocket Spanish Community for Even Faster Learning

1dAfter looking over the information on this website, you should have a good idea of the ways that Rocket Spanish can help you learn to be a fluent speaker at your own pace and in your own time. Having the ability to take the materials with you and study on your own wherever you go is a definite perk of the program.

However, you simply can’t escape the fact that learning a new language requires practice with other people. After all, there is really no purpose in mastering Spanish if you can’t use it to communicate with someone else. For this reason, Rocket Spanish provides some valuable ways for you to use your new skills in an active community of like-minded folks.

Help Available 24/7

The instructor of Rocket Spanish, Mauricio Evlampieff, makes himself available to answer your questions or critique 2dyour writing at any time. This is pretty incredible when you stop to think about it. This native Spanish-speaker, and gifted teacher will answer your personal emails to him in a timely manner whenever you need a little help. This is a policy that is followed throughout the Rocket Languages Company, and is very different from most companies that send you their materials and then leave you to your own devices without ever even providing you with any way to contact the instructors.

In addition to personal messages from Mauricio, you can also get valuable practice with your new language by posting comments, questions, or triumphs on the Members’ Only forum maintained by the Rocket Spanish company. This is not one of those dead places you see around the web where comments go unanswered for days at a time. Instead, it is visited frequently by lots of friendly folks who are interested in Spanish learning for a variety of reasons. Some are native speakers who enjoy helping others learn their birth language. Some are professional teachers who can help you with the fine points of grammar and usage. Some are folks like you that just want a place to talk about their challenges and successes.

3dFor example, a user named ccfcjc70 posted a question about how to pronounce a double L in Spanish. She had heard it several different ways in her lessons. She received a quick response from one of the forum moderators and then was treated to a lively discussion by several Rocket Spanish users who have heard the “ll” pronounced in different ways when visiting various Spanish-speaking countries. It was an interesting exchange of information with cultural and regional differences highlighted.

In another thread, a user wanted some help understanding verb tenses. The moderator not only replied quickly, she provided the student with links to several other websites that offered helpful materials on the subject. In my mind, this shows that the Rocket Spanish folks are not interested in merely promoting their own products, but they truly want to help people learn the language.

The course instructor, Mauricio makes regular appearances on the forum and is very encouraging to his students. 4dSome people write their queries in Spanish, and he responds to those the same way. If a question is asked in English, however, Mauricio answers in English. It’s another area where he proves his commitment to customer service.

Besides getting help with vocabulary or usage, you may want to visit the forum for information about traveling to Spanish-speaking countries. There is a whole section of the board devoted to people who want to ask questions about planned trips to Spain, or Central and South America, and many tourists have received some vital info that helped them plan their travels.

Learning Lounge

As a member of Rocket Spanish, you will have a lifetime access to the Learning Lounge. This is an interactive area that 5dallows you to keep all of your course materials in one easily accessible place.

Conclusion
