What others think:

My research into the Rocket Language company reveals that is a well respected company that has a good rating by consumers and consumer watchdogs alike. Its language learning programs are well received and good sellers and they have a lot of happy consumers. The only criticism about the site is that its programs tend to be rather basic and meant for beginners only.

Looking into what people are saying about the Jake La Berge's American Sign Language Learning Program, it appears that the results are about the same as the other Rocket language programs. Those that like this program thought that it was set up in a way to allow you to learn sign language very quickly. While it is not as popular as some other programs, those that did buy it, do not seem to be having any regrets and still use it to practice signing. The two big criticisms about it were that it had a limited vocabulary and that self test multiple choice questions were a little too easy to figure out.

Looking into this program, I found that it was loaded with all the basics to get you signing with authority. I like the embedded video clips and the software games make learning kind of fun. While this program would be pointless for someone who already knows the basics of American Sign Language, it is perfect for those who are just starting out. Also, since it is backed by a 60 day money back guarantee, checking it out is risk free.
