I’m leaning towards Pimsleur because of the emphasis on audio 😊
The lifetime subscription is a huge benefit! I also love the trials that are available before you commit to anything!
Great video. Thanks for such a thorough comparison!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video. Exactly what I was looking for.
Nice, glad we could help!
Rosetta Stone now has English translation when you hold on the picture you learn, so no more frustration, it’s really great. I have a lifetime subscription and I can Anytime learn any language.
Nice, thanks for watching and sharing!
Truly appreciate this so much
My wife has been an educator for some time but this year (due to having some training othwra did not) she was moves to a bi-lingual class. She does know some Spanish, hoewever, needs morw help.
So off we went to look into different programs, apps, and even CD (yes old school) language progrmas
After doing some calls and asking queations, we were more confused as to which to choose
YOU HAVE HELPED US AND WE THANK YOU!
All the information and also the way you do it, is appreciated
Again, thank you very much ...ehem....muchas gracias 😊
You are very welcome. Good luck learning!
Super helpful and appreciated the insight !!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching
This was a very insightful video! You covered everything in a way that made it very easy to understand and use accordingly.
I'm beginning to learn Spanish so that i can communicate with my colleagues here more easily and make new friends. (many students here are Hispanic or of latin-american descent )
Awesome, thank you! Glad we could help :)
Very helpful review. It really helped me make my decision. I appreciate how clear you are with the information and your preferences.
Thank you!! Glad it was helpful!
@@TestPrepInsight Thank you for your reply! I have a question. I want to go with Pimsleur but it's a bit pricey with it being an ongoing monthly fee. I saw that Pimsleur has a CD set (from 2005) sold on Amazon. But I'm curious whether I would be losing a lot learning tools from the app that the CD would not have. Have you ever compared the the Pimsleur app to its CD learning sets?
Appreciate the content! Your opinions and insight will definitely contribute to whichever program i choose
Nice! Glad we can help :)
Another great video. Subbed to the website.
Awesome, thank you!
Great comparison, thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for a helpful review! I am looking forward to try out Pimsleur.😊
Hope you enjoy it! Thanks for watching
Very well done Rosetta Stone vs Pimsleur 2023 review. Thank you. Great website too!
Thank you for the comparison! I have been trying to learn Spanish, and your review helped me choose a learning app.
Nice!! Glad it was helpful!
Very helpful video thanks 🙏🏿
No problem! Thanks for watching!
This is a great comprehensive review that spells out the differences between the programs clearly!
Glad we could help!! Thanks for watching
Hey John, I’m learning a new language to keep up with the French I was taught in school, thanks for the vid!
Nice! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for a great comparison :) I am learning a new language so I can immerse myself in the culture of a country I love - Thailand :)
That's awesome! Good luck :)
I've always thought it was very impressive to be multilingual and I wanted to lean more languages myself, as I only know 2 languages now. I am also traveling to Mexico and thats why I'm learning Spanish now as my 3rd language
Thanks for watching! 👍
This was a really good video. The punchline is definitely that these are both great programs and that if you are more of a visual learner Rosetta Stone will probably work better for you and if you are more of an auditory learner then Pimsleur will probably be your better choice. Both Rosetta and Pimsleur are great both founded on very solid language learning principles. It really in the end, depends on what kind of learner you are.
Yep, exactly! Nice summary :)
Great comparison. Thank you for the info. I am learning Spanish because where I live there are a lot of Spanish speaking people. At some point I also would like to revive my knowledge of French.
Agreed, and thanks for sharing!
I plan on using both, in tandem, to learn French this coming year, as soon as I'm a solid B2 in my listening and vocabulary skills in Spanish...
Nice. These two programs complement each other well.
Pimsleur all day for me. Been loving it. Learning Dutch!
Excellent composition of the two apps. I wish I can afford to have both.
Thank you! Appreciate you watching
Hi Doesn't the current Rosetta Stone have no games and chat functions? What is the function that replaces it?
Rosetta stone used to be the lead of language programs, but now they are being surpassed by others. Glad to see the competition to help me learn French for work.
Exactly right, they're sort of being passed by
Currently I'm just learning a new language for fun. But I do also have a job that might require me to move country soon, so it might be more of a need coming up here.
Nice. Thanks for watching!
I might just get both. They're not as expensive as they were 15 years ago. My opinion
For sure. Good luck!!
Thanks for the review. Seems like a combination of Rosetta Stone and Pimsleur, especially visual flash cards for Pimsleur would be the ultimate winner.
It would be a very good combo. Thanks for watching and sharing!
I wish Pimsleur would add a lifetime access option, that's my only complaint. I'm learning new languages for family and to challenge myself
I know, us too! Thanks for watching :)
I'm teaching myself toki pona just because I like the idea of a minimalist and supposedly easy to learn conlang and conlangs/auxlangs/interlangs fascinate me. I'd really like to properly learn both Latin and French, both of which I failed miserably multiple times in high school and uni lol. I have a question about apps like these ones you review. Is it possible to still use them and learn from them if you don't have a microphone for your computer?
Yes, there is almost always a function that allows you to skip the speaking exercises. But honestly, that is a big part of the learning process
@@TestPrepInsight Oh yeah, I know how important the speaking part can be. I tried a friend's Rosetta stone back when it was a stand-alone software and had to go thru all the calibraion for it lol. I don't plan to skip the speaking stuff forever, just until I can afford to get a decent microphone that won't shock me any time I try to adjust it lol
Gotcha! Well good luck :)
This is such a great comparison! Thank you for the video (and all of your research). I love that Rosetta Stone offers a lifetime subscription, but Pimsleur seems like a better pick overall!
Thank you!!
After watching this video I think Pimsleur is the right choice for me. Thanks for the great video!
I have Rosetta Stone. It is easy for the languages that are similar to English. Maybe if you knew what the pictures mean it would be easier in Japanese
Really liking Pimsleur for Italian!
Very cool! Thanks for the feedback
I used Pimsleur Vietnamese in 2002. Back then it was OG cassette tapes. I kept at it until I became a certified Vietnamese medical interpreter in the state of Oregon about six years ago. My accomplishments in Vietnamese speak for themselves, and it all began with Pimsleur. I know Dr. Ngô Như Bình personally and I can vouch that his work with Pimsleur is unmatchable. I tried Rosetta Stone a few times and had a fun laugh. It was cute a BS marketing rip off. You’d be better off learning in a college course than Rosetta Stone if you have access.
Great comparison. I’d go with Pimsleur over Rosetta Stone all day.
I am learning a new language so that I can better use my Spanish in my future career!
Awesome! Thanks for sharing and watching!
Im a visual learner but can't do Rosetta Stone, I feel that as language is a audible activity it is best learned that way.
I tend to agree with you. Thanks for watching!
Pimsleur is really great. Especially when you can share it with family or friends with the all access. It really makes me want to go with them. But honestly Rosetta Stone isn’t for me I feel. My lovely convo with last months giveaway winner about Rosetta Stone really showed how passionate people can be against Rosetta Stone haha.
Thanks for sharing! And yeah, haha, some people really don't like it.....
I am looking to learn Spanish to connect with my family
Love it :)
I am learning a new language to make traveling more fun.
Great reason :)
Which one is best? Who knows?
Learning Arabic in order to live and work in the middle east as a nurse someday.
Very cool!
Loving Pimsleur for learning Japanese.
Nice!! Glad to hear it :)
I'm learning Japanese. Love Japanese culture and food 😋
Cool
Pimsluer works best for me because of the audio. Rosetta Stone is good as well to supplement. Say 30 days of pimsleur, 30 days of Rosetta.
They do complement each other very well
Why are you a language learner?
So that I can connect with locals when I travel!
Oh yeah, the best reason of all :)
I'm learning Spanish because I know in the future I will be working in bilingo communities.
Great call :)
🎉
Rosetta Stone all the way!!!
Seems like you never pick Rosetta Stone lol
it just isn't our favorite app. the repetitive nature kills us...
@@TestPrepInsight as long as it's efficient then that's what matters to me. I'm used to classroom repetitiveness anyway. I shall try both.
I hate babbel. I need an alternative.
