Many customers appreciate an opportunity to try a product before purchasing it. Just like test-driving a car at the dealership, a way to see if the product will benefit the buyer is key for customer satisfaction since everyone has different wants and needs to fill. Although Rocket Spanish is not as extravagant as obtaining a vehicle, the principal remains.

The perfect way to test-drive this product is by signing up for the Free Rocket Spanish Sample Course. It is a free six-day trial program, simulating what the Premium Course has to offer. When signing up for the course, all that the Rocket Spanish requests is a name and valid e-mail address. Emails will be sent for the next six days containing the new lessons.

The first lesson’s e-mail starts off friendly and personal. There are a few paragraphs on what to expect to learn in the next six days. There will be three interactive audio lessons and three full grammar/text lessons in between for a total of six days. Once a lesson is done, the link to the lesson can be accessed 24/7 forever.

After the link to the first lesson is accessed, a new web page opens and Day One has begun. There is an audio file that can be played from the web page or downloaded into an mp3 format.  A woman’s voice explains the logistics of the audio course and what will be learned after the six days. You will be able to greet another person, introduce him or herself, and ask for help. It is imperative that the course is utilized in an area where it is okay to speak aloud. The learning process Rocket Spanish emphasizes is repetition and hearing your own voice pronounce the words correctly. Great places to do these exercises are in your home or while driving in the car.

The narrator introduces the other teacher, Mauricio, and gives instructions to repeat everything he says. A pause will be given so there is no need to manually stop the audio file. A basic conversation is given below the audio file that looks like this:

Spanish Conversation – “Saying Hello”

Amy: ¡Hola, Mauricio!?

Mauricio: ¡Hola, Amy! ¿Cómo estás? ?

Amy: Bien, ¿y tú? ?

Mauricio: Muy bien.

-English Translation

Amy: Hello, Mauricio! ?

Mauricio: Hello, Amy! How are you??

Amy: Well, and you??

Mauricio: Very well.

This conversation is read between the two narrators and then the repetition begins. The woman, Amy, will explain what is being learned and Mauricio will constantly say the words or phrases with a pause after for it to be said aloud. Every word in the conversation is picked apart and explained, even used in other contexts besides how it is being used in the conversation. The narrators will even ask questions and expect you to answer them aloud.

The audio conversation lasts fifteen minutes and covers every angle of greeting someone and finding out how they are. An example of a more advanced conversation taken from the Premium Rocket Spanish course is shown at the bottom of the page with an example of an audio portion as well. It is noticeable how detailed the Premium Course can get, the example conversation shown is all about planning a fiesta, or party.

When starting to learn a new language it is important to understand the basics of the language as well as the ability to comprehend full sentences. When learning Spanish, lets start with the building blocks of the language, the alphabet.

Mini Lesson: Three Unique Spanish Letters

The Spanish alphabet is very similar to the English alphabet but there are some differences. CH, LL, and Ñ are three letters that are in the Spanish alphabet which are not found in English. They are treated as letters and are pronounced che, elle, and eñe (enye). It is important to be familiar with these letters to help with reading and writing the language.
