First lesson done and I'm already in love. I bought this after cancelling my duolingo subscription and I'm so excited to continue learning and actually understand intonation and grammar. Thank you for providing such a solid learning experience.

I've been studying Japanese for seven years. That included a couple of on-line courses, and several of the major apps. I've concluded that the best combination of speaking, listening, writing and grammar comes from using a combination of Rocket Japanese and Japanese from Zero.

The pay-once-and own model is a welcome change from the subscription model so many apps use. My one regret with Rocket is their decision to remove the typing component. The "composing" aspect of clicking on blocks of characters is, for me, less useful than typing in my response on a Japanese keyboard.

Response from Rocket Languages

It’s great to hear that Rocket Japanese has become such a valuable part of your learning journey, especially alongside other resources, Doug. We're glad you appreciate the lifetime access model. We offer this because we know that learning a language takes time and consistent effort, and we want to make sure you have the freedom to learn at your own pace without the pressure of a subscription. Regarding the typing component, the Composing activity is still available. If you're having trouble accessing it, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at support@rocketlanguages.com, and we’ll be happy to help. Wishing you continued success with your Japanese studies!

It's boring. There is no picture to help me connect with the phrase or words. They throw a sentence at you and have you repeat it, hoping you remember. It's no different from when you just Google Translate phrases and remember them yourself. Maybe throw an interactive game or something. I wanted a refund, but there's no refund button either. I guess I'll just take this as my loss.

Response from Rocket Languages

Sorry to hear that, Chalampol. Please know we take our 60-day refund promise very seriously, and our support team has reached out to you to initiate the refund process. Wishing you all the best with your language learning!
