My second day onto the Japanese course. I like the product and in particular its ability to hear from my pronunciation and give a rating. The contents are relevant and the hosts voices are pleasant. I can also learnt using my PC as well as mobile.

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.

Response from Rocket Languages

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.

Rocket Languages is essential for anyone who is serious about learning a new language. The course is designed to help us start having real life conversations from the very first lesson. Instead of wasting time learning useless vocabulary, Rocket Languages teaches words and phrases that we are likely to use to everyday. So, if you want to immerse yourself in a new language, ditch those other language apps that are gimmicky and flash card based and instead invest in learning a new language with depth and understanding.

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Mohit, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. It's awesome to hear that you are enjoying the conversational focus woven into our Rocket Japanese course, and the comprehensive approach we take to language learning. All the best with your Japanese language-learning journey!

Course #1's audio lessons were really excellent. The timing of the dialogue/repeat sections is spot on, the native speakers have very clear accents, and you learn a lot quite quickly. It is easy to put them on in the background and make several additional passes through the material to cement the teachings. I found the accompanying grammar lessons to be difficult to retain in the 'mostly text' format, and they often don't follow along with where you are in the audio lessons at all.

Course #2 is somewhat the opposite. The native speakers (and host) all have distinct accents, the dialogue timing is a mess, and the content is all over the place. One minute you're basically redo-ing a lesson from Course #1, and the next you're totally lost when everything switches to 'casual' speech, which you've had almost no exposure to thus far. Alternately, the grammar courses are now structured to expound upon specific parts of the audio, which is an improvement.

I was VERY happy with Course #1 overall, but I am soured on the audio portion of Course #2. When the dialogue-repeat sections sometimes go word-by-word, but give you 10 seconds to speak, it becomes very difficult to learn the line in entirety.

We are happy to know that you enjoyed Level 1 of the course. However, we're sorry to hear that the audio lessons in Level 2 did not meet your expectations. I have already passed your feedback on to our Rocket Japanese team, who will take it into consideration while working on future course updates.

The (new) japanese course #1 was great, it made me buy #2 ... which is a mess. The audio is not good, the japanese accent of the english speaker is wrong, the delay for repeating the word is wrong and the content is sometime the same as #1.
To make it worse, the content is highly specific, like opening a bank account, which is really boring and useless for a beginner.
