Rosetta Stone Language Learning Software Reviews & Insights

Our company is located in QC, which is French and English bilingual. I never learned French before, and also English is not my first language. I thought it would be very hard to learn French by English, but it turns out not. I've been enjoying Rosetta Stone on my phone for more than one year after previously using another app. I've found Rosetta Stone to be head and shoulders above the other apps, I do like they provide animes and cartoons to show you how it works in real life.

To be honest, the software is a bit expensive, especially compared with some free apps. But I think it's worth it. On my end, I need to live and work in a bilingual city, I would need to learn how to use French in real life, and Rosetta Stone provides real conversation, animation, cartoon or illustations to show us how to actually use this language, I really appreciate it! We all know French has a lof of liaison, if I only learnt the grammer from the book, I could barely understand what they are talking about, but Rosetta Stone is good, the speed and liaison matches what people speak in real life, I could understand 40% of talk in French by only learning in Rosetta Stone for 1 year. Maybe I'm not a fast learner but I'm already satisfied! However it has some issues, as I mentioned above, the app needs some UI update, and I need to be really close to my mic so it can record my voice properly.

i have used Rosetta Stone Language Learning Software in my personal and professional career. i first started using the software when i was in the hospitality industry, as a way to learn spanish to communicate not only with our spanish speaking staff, but also our spanish speaking clients. the software really helps you learn another language at your own pace and provides you the tools to succeed

i think that all organizations, corporate and non corporate should provide this software to their employees. it will not only help organizations as a whole, but will give employees a resource to learn a new language if they want to. i think teachers, corporate offices, banks, post offices, library staff, restaurant staff etc should all have this available to them to learn upon employment

Rosetta Stone is used in my district for World Language classes for middle school and high school students. It offers a learning management platform and offers the capability of students choosing languages more than just what our teachers know and are qualified to teach.

I think that Rosetta Stone would be best suited for someone looking to refresh their language skills after already having learned the language at some point, but has not been a particularly fruitful initial experience to foreign language learning.

We use Rosetta Stone software in our 35 community computer labs across New York State that provide free academic, occupational and computer instructor-led and individual self-paced certification and certificate training courseware to adults ages 17+. The purpose is to enable adults that want to increase their language proficiency in English or any of the 26 language courses offered by Rosetta Stone to do so at our facilities for free.

Rosetta Stone is well suited in the following cases:
1. If you have a high speed Internet connection.
2. If it is used to supplement an instructor-led language course.
3. If one does not have access to an instructor-led language course but have high speed Internet access.
4. If one is willing to use the program 3-4 days a week.

Rosetta Stone is provided through the Jefferson Parish School District to help English Language Learners (ELLs) be successful in content areas at grade level by helping them to recognize and learn English while becoming comfortable speaking English.

I am the site administrator for Rosetta Stone at my middle school. I work with the teachers and paras along with students to utilize the program to their best advantage.

The program is used in the newcomer class to help jump-start them before they are integrated into the regular education content classes. It is also used in the ELLs intervention classes to help them increase their proficiency with English while they are immersed in English only grade-level content classes.

While there are things that Rosetta Stone could do to help the teachers and district with providing educational data, I have seen a tremendous improvement in many beginning ELLs. This program has given them the confidence to move from silence in the classroom to be able to share their thoughts and demonstrate their grasp of the class material.
