Highly Effective Program Over the years I have used Rosetta Stone in its various formats. It has never failed to be an excellent learning tool. It is by far the next best thing to being immersed in the culture of the language you would like to learn. Now with the increased connectivity between people the ability to connect with native speakers only adds to the effectiveness of the Rosetta Stone system of language learning. It is truly a fantastic program.

So far So far. So good. Everything that I expected. I'm definitely learning and speaking my choice language with ease. Some trouble with the program understand my pronunciation of some words, when I am clearly saying the right thing, but other than that minor hiccup, everything is fun. Now, Der Mann Isst!

Rosetta Stone's lifetime subscription is a scam! A few years ago, I bought a lifetime subscription to Rosetta Stone. This year when I came back to continue learning the intended language, I realized that it does not work anymore. I contacted customer service, they just told me that I have to purchase the software again, otherwise, I cannot use it. I pressed on squeezing out an explanation about this issue, but they did not give me any explanation. Marketing the software as a lifetime subscription is a scam and consumer protection agencies should watch these practices very closely.

My favorite foreign language program of many I have tried many foreign language programs and I think that Rosetta Stone is the best because they teach you similar to how a child learns - with photos. I have had to call them and they answer promptly and have always been extremely helpful. I have also taken the tutoring classes with a real teacher and 3 others in the online class and it's very good and helpful.

Great app, just some poorly laid out segments Great language app and scenarios, easy to learn. However their audio reader is horrible. It doesn’t pick up sounds and you have to repeat several times and this is on different devices with and without headphones on. They also have this story/conversation section where you are supposed to speak the answer but the sequence of the story is not clear as it’s a reel that’s not well laid out. Example is the camping trip with a dog and bread and apples.
