Rocket Japanese Reviews

I have tried different online courses so i might say I have seen quite a bit but so far this is the best. It explains in details structure, grammar and also emphasizes the important thinks to remember which a lot of other programs lack and are focused only on the vocabulary. The dialogues are also well written and in a funny way which makes it easier to concentrate and remember.
Definitely the best online course so far!

I started recently, so far so good. Very complete, very entertaining. The explanations and examples are so easy to follow. Love to use it on my computer, on my ipod. Have the capacity to download the audio and listen to it while driving and practicing is so convenient. Even going to sleep listening to it.

I have been studying Japanese through various methods for about 2 years. Having completed most of the first level of Rocket Japanese, I am impressed with the format used. Everything is broken down nicely, and appeals to multiple learning styles. I like that fact that I can go back, and review the dialogs, and practice them in real time, with grading on pronunciation. This is a key feature for me, as it greatly improves my conversational flow. The only thing that I see as a detractor is that the speed of the dialog is still rather slow in comparison to actual spoken Japanese. It is still fast enough to leave me tongue tied if practicing conversation, though. Overall, this is one of the best. I have tried multiple other methods, and Rocket Japanese ranks as my number 1/2!

I am so happy with this product! I've learned so much over the course of several months. It is well worth the price, especially if you can get it on sale. Customer service deserves much love as well! Both times I've contacted them and they were able to fulfill my requests no questions asked. Thank you, Rocket Language!

I had a great time learning Japanese and I've only been using it for 2 hours! It's easy to learn, and there is no stress of fast paced learning, just steady learning. I love it and I will probably suggest it to a friend.

I love this app. I have tried many other apps and they don't compare to Rocket. I had taken one class in Japanese at a local college and couldn't continue because of scheduling conflicts. Rocket Japanese has allowed me to continue studying Japanese. It is the next best thing to being in class. I have found the lessons to be extremely informative and, most importantly, relevant. The lessons are real world examples of conversations that I might actually have. I highly recommend this program.

Prior to starting Rocket Japanese, I studied the Japanese language for 9 years. I learned how to read at a very high level, but unfortunately was never in a situation where I got to practice speaking and listening. Everything I took in college was textbook based and there was little to no actual conversations. In each chapter there would be a very short dialogue and then that was it, off to reading for the rest of the lesson. Where Rocket excels is that it focuses on audio and allows you to say the vocabulary. This is helping me with my listening skills. Now instead of reading the Japanese subtitles in variety shows, I can also understand more of the spoken language. This approach to learning has helped immensely. I only have a few minor gripes with the program: When writing the Kanji for the Kanji writing section, I'll write it perfect, yet the program marks it as bad and then won't even explain why. It does this at least 2 times every lesson. The repeating section can be near impossible at times. When it gets to the last three, they're expecting you to repeat back a sentence with 10 words in it. I honestly don't have the memorization skills to do that. It doesn't need to be that difficult.

It's grateful to learn lot of different languages, I highly recommend this Rocket Languages web to my family, friends, fellow countrymen & brethren.

I really like this product. I've tried several others over the years and this is the best. I'm especially impressed with how every year the site is improved with updates that actually improve the product. I love how much the writing section has improved, much easier to learn Hiragana and Katakana as well as to learn how to speak the language (with feedback, you are rated plus you can listen to what you actually sound like).
I own Rocket French and Rocket Japanese, all three levels for both languages and am very happy with the results. If you work steady, you will get excellent results.

i just started so far its the best i keep on going back to the recording and hearing myself and i know doesn't sound right so i practice saying it out loud over and over but a great website to start learning
