I am surprised to be enjoying learning Japanese. It IS challenging and takes effort, but the (literally) infinite patience of the instructors and light-hearted nature of the instruction keep it enjoyable. Teaching with conversations initially seems daunting. but it's broken down so well, that you will feel accomplishment by lesson's end. 4 stars on the service only because I haven't needed it yet.

The free trial was very good. Elected to purchase 1st set based on the free trial. Had some issues with unlocking the purchased due to my error. This was pointed out by a very helpful customer service person, however, it did take sometime for a response. Got very frustrated waiting for a response after several emails, / customer help calls.

Once unlocked my account works really well. The lessons are on point and user friendly. Strongly recommend.

I've taken up to the Advanced II level of Japanese classes at my university. I made the decision to stop taking classes and self-study so that I would graduate sooner. For someone with ADHD like me, Rocket Languages is perfect! There's much more structure that Rosetta Stone or JapanesePod101, and it's more accurate than Duolingo. As long as you purchase during one of the sales, it's a great deal for the price and perfect for self-study or supplementing classes!

It is an excellent program that reinforces what you learn. The grading scale is great and the native speakers give you an idea of how to say the words with the correct accent. I also loved that there is extensive training on writing as well as speaking the language. My only complaint is the software is terrible with one syllable words. You have to bypass the automatic rating to get these graded correctly. Everything else is perfect.

This is the best language program I have ever used. Excellent, step-wise instruction. Being able to record and listen to myself and compare with a native speaker is invaluable. I supplement the reading and writing part with Duolingo, but Rocket Japanese is the ONLY way to learn! I spend hours on this program and in just over a month, I have learned so much. It is pricey, but well worth it. Actually it would be cheaper than a full fledged in person course. ありがとうございました!!!!

I had reviewed several programs before deciding to settle on Rocket Japanese for several reasons. I liked that you could teach yourself orally without having to read or write (though those options are included for those who are learning or sharpening their abilities), that progress was synced across devices and not limited to desktop or mobile only, and that there were multiple learning tools provided. I am not far into the program yet but so far I am really enjoying it and it has helped me immensely. I would absolutely recommend to friends, family, and strangers looking to learn.

I'm very satisfied with my purchase of Rocket Japanese, especially with the voice recognition so that pronunciation can be practiced. The one glaring downside seems to be the ghost-town of a forum. Sometimes I'll post a question or feedback and not receive a reply for days, and so it's not as user friendly as the forums on Duolingo or WaniKani. Perhaps more staff/tutors could be hired to at least make sure every new thread gets a response? Overall I would still recommend Rocket Japanese, especially with the 60% discount codes (which make the price "just right" IMHO). Cheers!
