Rocket Japanese Reviews

I love this site because i get to learn a new language.

I purchased Rocket Japanese a few years ago and put it on the back burner. I've recently gotten my interest back up and have been practicing more. Not being an expert on language courses, I'm pretty happy with my purchase. The frustration I have is self inflicted as I have difficulty with sentence structure and conjugating verbs. That is no fault of the program, however. I just have to let go of established norms to understand better what I am trying to learn.

I love how they don't just tell you what the words mean but show them in conversation and tell you how to pronounce them!

Being able to engage in any kind of dialogue while learning a language is crucial to establishing a sense of comfort with using the words in context and conversation for the future. Pronunciation being checked for accuracy through my mic is a big deal when wanting to use a language outside of casual engagements and I love that Rocket provides a service to hear my attempts at words and catch whether I'm saying things correctly or using the correct words at all. Flashcards are my favorite study tool and having options to customize what info appears on them is a nice benefit. The price is a little steep without a promo code, which is a bit prohibitive for some of my peers, and though understandable, it would be nice to see rarer languages featured like Hawaiian, Navajo, or Gaelic. Great product overall though and I can already tell I'm learning better with it than I did with the 'owl app'.

I really like that it incorporates speaking into a microphone.

I like Rocket Languages Courses because they are different from other courses that we have to be connected to practice or learn, we can download the lessons and practice any time in our day life. The exercises are useful and we can review them anytime we want to.

It's great having someone who is REALLY from Japan to teach me the lessons. It helps extravagantly with punctuation, and I know that all the culture is up to date. Not only that, but the forum allows me to ask any questions that I may have about the language.

Rocket Japanese is exactly what I have been looking for! I studied Japanese for one year in middle school but have always had an itch to continue learning this fun language without paying a high price for it. I feel right at home with Rocket Japanese and is a great way to pick up where I left off many years ago.

I looked up the best software to learn Japanese because it became too hard to learn on my own and now I feel so confident with it thanks to Rocket Japanese, nothing i have ever learned has been so streamlined and at times where i found it hard to understand i asked the question and got a response almost instantly and it was always super helpful

I already speak some Japanese and I speak German very well. I am using these as a review through my local library system. One thing I found is a bit off and often is with Japanese is that you ask a person to write in Japanese but have the lessons for writing kana separate and ongoing with the other lessons. Also your keyboard input is slightly off from my foreign language IME...Your basic lessons only accept exact copies of what you have written when the kanji form and sometimes other writings are correct.
