▬ ABOUT THIS VIDEO ▬
Rosetta Stone Spanish Review (How Effective Is The Program?). In this video, John from the Test Prep Insight team covers his review of the Spanish course and Spanish app from Rosetta Stone. This is quite possibly the most popular language learning program on Earth. However, that doesn't necessarily mean Rosetta Stone is the right choice for you to learn Spanish. John breaks down the major advantages and disadvantages of the Rosetta Stone language app. He talks about the company's lessons, their TruAccent speech technology and much more. Overall, the Rosetta Stone Spanish course is very heavy on visuals. The majority of drills and exercises you'll complete are variations of interactive flashcards. This is great for visual learner, but not so great for individuals seeking audio lessons and conversational help. The Rosetta Stone program is also light on English translations and directions. The company instead focuses on immersion to help you pick up the Spanish language quicker. Thanks for watching this Rosetta Stone reviews guide. Hopefully it helps you decide whether Rosetta Stone is the best app to learn Spanish for your specific needs.

This was the preferred brand for the military at one time and was free to military personnel.

[@eduardocorrochio3132]

Nice comprehensive video of the Rosetta Stone Spanish program. Very informative. Your written review was very helpful also. Makes the purchase decision much easier. Thanks.

[@eduardocorrochio3132]

I have several clients in Madrid, Barcelona, Seville and Valencia, Spain, and I'm trying to become more fluent in day-to-day Spanish. I hope I win the free course. Thanks again.

[@AbhiyanSingh]

I would definitely check out Spanish due to its versatility and acceptance in wide range of countries as a spoken language.

[@alainar6674]

Rosetta Stone seems like a great program to use to learn Spanish! It’s nice that you get options to learn other languages if you buy the lifetime subscription!

[@khanshwathsaw8198]

Compared to other channels, this is a very detailed review!

[@bhavyanshsabharwal9029]

Great review as always! I'm not gonna use Rosetta Stone for Spanish learning right now, but I could definitely see myself using their French course. The lifetime price of $179 seems like a great value!

[@TestPrepInsight]

Thank you for watching!

[@LazloArcadia]

Solid review, I'll have to check out your written review as well.

[@janekendall2631]

Thank you for the information about this program! Very helpful.

[@richardross2202]

Great explainer & review, thank you.

[@kennybania5177]

Great video. I’ve always been curious about Rosetta Stone.

[@Crystal_Starheart]

I like the emphasis you put on Rosetta Stones' lifetime access to all languages for such a low cost. I used to think that this was a great program to get for refreshing and studying Spanish because I saw it selling at Costco years ago. You give much more in-depth coverage of the various benefits of all the available language programs I've ever heard about and some I've never heard of as well.

[@TestPrepInsight]

Thanks for watching and sharing!

[@harleyquiinnnn]

i got a library card here in germany for half a year for 5€ and now the lady in the library told me they have the rosetta programm FOR FREE for all kinds of languages available through the website. I love my country. I might pick up my spanish learning just because of that

[@TestPrepInsight]

Niceeee

[@jennifercrum-flint599]

thank you for this review and for the informational links !

[@TestPrepInsight]

No problem!

[@wellcoachlynell]

Rosetta Stone seems like a great language learning program. This video is motivating.

[@superrt5032]

Thanks for the review. Free is always the best way to learn 😝

[@JL0ndon]

So i got a little Swedish dictionary and have a notebook that i use when doing Rosetta Stone, but i also just got a workbook to learn much more in terms of grammar. Rosetta Stone is great but i use it as a tool among a few others to build my knowledge. I totally agree with this assessment though! It’s really hard not to like it’s overall concept but the execution of things like the pictures are incongruous to the culture of the language or the lack of definition or explanation when it comes to grammar or a word you learned

[@JuanValdes]

Hey great review thank you for providing this service

[@TestPrepInsight]

No problem 👍

[@backtworeality]

Awesome in-depth review!

[@TestPrepInsight]

great rosetta review. thx

[@eduardoosuna5111]

Great review. Thanks!

[@TestPrepInsight]

Thanks for watching!

[@trillrudeboy]

I find Babbel works well for me, because I grew up in Texas and am familiar with Spanish in general. We actually have to take Spanish for several years in school. Babbel helps me with Grammer and understanding the pesky rules I could never get to speak Spanish like a native. I supplement with Rosetta Stone daily to code my brain to think in Spanish and to review. I would also recommend Spanish Dictionary has a lot of free material that I have found very helpful. Perhaps the best tool for learning Spanish, is to find someone who will speak it with you.

[@toedrag-release]

Its a great startinf poibt for somebody who wants to start learning a new language.

[@xsaiverr]

I agree with early vocal practice. excited to try it out, just testing my options tho!

[@TestPrepInsight]

Nice! Thanks for watching!

[@marcellbyers3195]

I am in love with my Girlfriend of almost 2 years. She is half Hispanic, and uses only Spanish when hanging out with her dad’s side of the family. We both graduated college only a year ago, so most of our time and money is spent working off our student loans. I would love to be able to communicate with her family without breaking the bank! I love the videos! And fingers crossed I get selected!

[@bobandsteve420]

it would really show her that you give a shit, thats for sure.

[@andrewross6060]

Great information. Thanks for putting it all together.

[@cristinasmith1560]

Thank you for this thorough review! Giveaway question: I want to learn Spanish to refresh my understand of the language that I lost as I grew up and be able to pass that on to my kids so they can gain a better understanding of my culture and apply it when speaking to relatives like my grandmother!

[@TestPrepInsight]

Nice! Thanks for watching!

[@cooptroop163]

Appreciate you!

[@Freiheit1232]

I paid an absurd amount of money for Rosetta Stone when they had discs for sale when i was in college BUT i have retained German specifically because of the way I learned the basics from Rosetta Stone. I don't need to think of how to pronounce words, form basic sentences and i rarely ever speak German. Using other tools like listening to music/watching shows also helps and isn't as boring but you need to force yourself to not use your native subtitles

[@TestPrepInsight]

Thanks for the detailed comment. Appreciate you sharing!

[@woodencorerealestatellc3211]

Thank you for pointing out the retention aspect! That is very helpful.

[@tofusauce]

Yeah I remember it used to cost thousands of dollars for the cds

That you for the timestamps!

[@quentintyler]

Thanks for the video!! I am looking for a good program that will take me to fluency. Based on your video Rosetta stone is about the same as Mondly(which I already use) Thanks again!!

[@TestPrepInsight]

Thanks Quentin! Check out our review of Pimsleur. You might like that

[@user-zj6kb2kt5b]

I want to learn Spanish to better be able to communicate with people I work with, so I'm looking into what would be the best program to go with and a couple different programs would compliment each other.

[@jlhollow]

Thank you for this review! Very helpful. You stated that this is more beginner friendly, is there a program you recommend if your goal is to become fluent in the end?

[@TestPrepInsight]

Thanks for watching Jovanni! Yes, if you want a program with more comprehensive lessons that will get you closer to total fluency, I'd recommend checking out Pimsleur or Rocket Spanish. I'll drop links to our reviews of both below. testprepinsight.com/reviews/pimsleur-spanish-review/ testprepinsight.com/reviews/rocket-spanish-review/

[@jlhollow]

@@TestPrepInsight Thank you so much☺️

[@davidramirez578]

Hello jovanni I’m Mexican American and I don’t know Spanish. Trying to learn lol how long did it take you to learn the basics?

[@twinkleeapen]

Great review. I would love to be more fluent in spanish so I can speak it with my friends.

Thanks for watching Twinkle!

[@dastreak2152]

I started with roseta stone, now I speak english et je parle francais aussi, a todo esto, mi lengua materna es el español, saludos ;P

[@SG_B4k3dTatr]

So Rosetta Stone is perfect for getting by like you mentioned, but what do you recommend then for someone who’s trying to be completely fluent?

[@TestPrepInsight]

Rocket Languages or Pimsleur would be our top suggestions for total fluency. Here's a video on Rocket: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gXSamKh9q91ja6M

[@KettleCamping]

Very helpful! Thank you!👍

[@TestPrepInsight]

Glad you found it helpful :-)

[@mjbaransky]

What program do you recommend for option 2 (if end goal is to be 100 percent fluent and understand native speakers)...

[@TestPrepInsight]

Rocket Languages or Pimsleur! Check out our other KZbin videos on them

[@underdrip7957]

What would you recommend for people trying to fully understand native speakers?

[@TestPrepInsight]

Rocket Spanish, check it out

[@brianaziz9913]

Good and informative

[@TestPrepInsight]

Thank you!

[@brianaziz9913]

Thanks of course

[@MasiukA]

Did you complete the Rosetta Stone program for Spanish, or just try it out?

[@morningcoffee1111]

So which course is recommended for fluency at the end of 20 units?

[@TestPrepInsight]

I'd say Pimsleur or Rocket. Either of those two courses are your best bet for fluency

[@KingaMoor]

That is one of the few problems that I have with using the Rosetta Stone program to learn Spanish. It is intuitive learning. I don't know why some words are phrased differently between the, they, are, and is. Why do girls and boys use different words when describing them. The program is still great and I do get better at learning Spanish with each practice but I sometimes don't know if I'm using a, are, or none at all in the sentence.

[@TestPrepInsight]

You're dead on - that is one of the issues with RS. There is some merit to learning like that, but it can be frustrating :/ Thanks for watching!

[@bigj2222]

Do you have to pay for each user, or can a married couple use the subscription?

[@TestPrepInsight]

I don't believe you can account split with Rosetta Stone. I know you can with Pimsleur, but not sure about Rosetta

[@SherieKorns]

I am South African and speak Afrikaans and English, since I moved to the states I’ve been wanting to learn spanish. But it’s a bit expensive 😐

[@TestPrepInsight]

For sure, hopefully our video helped you a little bit in figuring out whether Rosetta Stone Stone might work. Thanks for watching!

[@rapgod4365]

What would be the best language app for more difficult languages ones like japanese.hindi.greek and Chinese that use different writing systems. I could not use Duolingo for Greek or Japanese because it made me type out the writing system which my phone does not allow. Also I hate having to learn the writing before the spoken language.

[@TestPrepInsight]

Pimsleur 100%. They focus on the audio side of things, and writing systems take a backseat

[@rapgod4365]

@@TestPrepInsight any thing that is more visual or gameified that does not focus on the writing system. How are Rosetta stone.mango languages. Rocket languages. Babbel and bussu.

[@jaydav420]

Great view... it was very helpful 🙂

[@TestPrepInsight]

Glad it was helpful!

[@allayshalonarios1755]

I definitely wouldn't like being immersed right into the language. I'm potentially an intermediate level Spanish speaker, but I would get easily frustrated for sure.

[@annxsphie]

Thank you for the helpful information. Totally convinced me to get a lifetime package for $179 just can’t seam to find that deal. Can you please help me out?

[@TestPrepInsight]

Ugh, so Rosetta used to have the lifetime package on sale more or less year round for $180, but right now it's full price. Their sale cycle just ended, so it's $300. So you'll either have to wait for it to go back on sale (I'd guess within 3-4 weeks), or opt for another plan. If you're really itching to get going, I'd suggest checking out Babbel, as we actually have their app rated out a little higher than Rosetta Stone and their lifetime plan is currently on sale for 60% off. Find that here: testprepinsight.com/go/babbel-comparison/

[@TheVictoria534]

The lifetime deal of $179 is available again!

[@jigglybandito9505]

I want to get fluent in Spanish because my new landlord pretty much only knows Spanish. What program would you recommend to get fluent in Spanish ?

[@TestPrepInsight]

Pimsleur or Rocket Spanish...check out our other video reviews of those programs

[@ginabee1212]

Pimsleur is great for getting a start on speaking the language in conversations. I am currently using it to learn Russian, but I also learned a bit of Ukrainian, as well. I used Pimsleur to learn a bit of Polish about 17 years ago, and I can still remember some of it (especially after a quick review). Duolingo really helped me to learn the Cyrillic alphabet used in Russian and Ukrainian. I can actually read a little bit now, which was my original motivation for learning Russian.

[@brunoriverayron7189]

What app would you recommend to become fluenr?

[@TestPrepInsight]

Rocket Languages or Pimsleur...check them out!

Hi is the Spanish in Latin American or Castilian? Thanks 🙏🏼

[@TestPrepInsight]

[@ospyvx]

the cultural différent images are irrelevat to Learn a language, so it is not a disadvantage

[@josefhudson]

I’d like to learn Spanish to communicate better with my teammates.

[@TestPrepInsight]

Nice! Thanks for watching!

[@Facundoarga]

if already know a little bit of the language that you´re trying to learn, don´t use this app. The only thing useful they have are the videocalls whit natives of each country.

[@trillrudeboy]

I strongly disagree with you. I think the "cultural irrelevant" images you speak of are intentional and add value. They will show you women of all varieties to learn "mujer" which triggers your brain to think it's not one specific type of woman, it's a woman in general. It also helps the person learning, who is most likely not from the culture of which language you are learning to relate.

[@mayaamay4615]

Can you skip voice part? I don't like that. Sometimes you can't speak up!

[@TestPrepInsight]

I don't believe so. I think they place a big emphasis on speaking so they don't allow you to skip

[@fintonmainz7845]

Tedious and long-winded

[@anthonyjriz3]

Rosetta Stone is horrible, just match the picture to the phrases, doesn't explain any reasoning for grammar or anything like that

[@randomnav]

You talk with your hands a lot. It is very distracting.
