Rocket Japanese Reviews

I'm greatly enjoying the experience, but i wish the tests were more comprehensive. the tests only consist of 5 questions, nothing difficult, nothing that requires a lot of memory, and they're not randomized (the position of the answer) so it's difficult not to remember the position of the answer vs the actual answer itself after the first time.

Hi Donald, thank you for your review. It's awesome to hear you are enjoying Rocket Japanese. We appreciate your feedback in regard to the Quiz reinforcement activity, and it has been passed on to our Product Development team to take into account when they make course updates. All the best with your Japanese language-learning!
In Japan since three weeks ago. To prepare,
I worked on a subset of Rocket Japanese Level 1 dialogues, and language and culture lessons, that focus on greetings; train, bus, taxi travel; food and drink; grocery and convenience stores; visiting cultural attractions, checking in at hotels. Plus reading and writing hiragana and katakana.
With that, independent travel in Japan has been easy and fun. Hurrah for Rocket Japanese!

Hi Andrew, thank you for leaving a review. We love hearing about how our users are applying what they learn from our course, whether it be at home or abroad. It's great that Rocket Japanese has enhanced your trip to Japan and allowed you to navigate around with ease. All the best!
Extremely satisfied, considering the amount of hours I have already poured into this it was more than worth the price.
I would purchase it again, and would purchase add-ons/expansions, and have already recommended it to others.

Response from Rocket languages - Hi Michael, thank you for your review. It's awesome to hear that you recommend Rocket Japanese so highly and are happy with the comprehensive language-learning content imbedded in the course. Happy learning!
Rocket Japanese is great! It makes learning a language less frustrating by starting with the basics and building upon it. Although, I would like it if users could befriend other users and have an additional leaderboard for them and their friends. Anyhow, it is very helpful and efficient and I would like to thank Sayaka, Shota, Sam, and all the others for their work:
ありがとうございます！

I have passed your suggestion about tweaking our leader board system on to the Product Development team to consider when they make updates to the course. We're sure that your Japanese language learning will continue along its current trajectory!
When it comes to learning Japanese as complete beginner, pronunciation, listening and speaking are very important to me. Rocket Japanese provides very good speaking exercises along with microphone input that accepts the speech if pronunciation is correct.

Rocket Japanese has been wonderful and fun and excellent at keeping me engaged and coming back. With the emphasis on speaking and pronunciation and practical language, I feel like I'm learning the important parts first. Highly recommended and I'm excited to keep going on my journey towards being a polyglot with this program.

So far I've only done the first lesson. Everything was good except the hirigana 'de' in dekimashita was missing a dakuten (") so I read it as tekimashita. I don't know if that is intentional or not. This was in the Getting started - Extra: sort kana section.

So far I really like the amount of speaking in this course. Some of the words are very hard from the beginning and trying to learn the Kanji at the same time is a bit difficult but I'm hoping it repeats a lot over time so that I may get better at speaking and reading the language.
Response from Rocket Languages
We're so happy to hear you are enjoying the speaking tools we have woven into Rocket Japanese. In terms of repetition, you might enjoy the reinforcement tools that we offer with the course, like "Flashcards," "Hear it! Say it!" etc., they are a great way to get reading and talking in Japanese.
