I think the method used to teach Japanese is excellent and I love the updates made on the web site, I see new features and I think that's great. The short lessons are easy to remember and you can learn Japanese step by step with no rush and no pressure.

If you want the real deal, this is it. Best language app that I have ever come across. A bargain at the price.

Wow, thank you for the kind words, Matt! Wishing you all the best as you continue your Japanese language-learning journey.

I really like that the program puts a strong emphasis on writing from the very beginning. That really helps me wrap my head around pronunciation and word order. Having both a native Japanese speaker and a native English speaker speaking in the audio lessons helps to overcome the anxiety that comes with trying to learn a new language.

I find that the lessons on Rocket Japanese are extremely practical and cover topics that one is likely to encounter in real live situations. Case in point, I just one week ago arrived in Japan for a visit. As usual, the friendly Customs Officer asked me if I could speak Japanese. My response in the past has been that I do not and that usually means I walk straight through Customs. This time I decided to say I speak a little. As anticipated, this resulted in me being "tested" to see just how much I could and couldn't speak. To my surprise I was able to get through a five minute conversation with the Customs Officer. I'll concede that I've been brushing on Japanese up in recent times but didn't expect this result. The thing I like about Rocket Japanese is the clear enunciation of the teachers. In my view this is absolutely critical when one is trying to learn a language. Without that good foundation I think it is extremely difficult to pick up the spoken word. In turn, if you can't hear the language then you have no hope of being able to respond to any question. I have now been in Japan for a couple of weeks and continue to surprise myself in places like shops and on public transport.

Rocket Languages is so user friendly! Navigation is clear and recommendations for the next lesson are excellent. Being able to speak a new language as well as read/write in it is fantastic as well. I'm hooked!

I am still in the first lesson, but so far I am very pleased with the Rocket Japanese program. I really like that, from the very first lesson, you are learning complete sentences that you can use in a conversation versus just vocabulary words.

this was the best tutorial ive seen around bar none. it's so easy, its a decent pace for those who don't know japanese at all. and its challenging enough to peak my interest constantly. I already knew a little japanese but this proved to me that i didnt know nearly as much as I thought. with such a complex language such as this I have so much more to learn.

Learning Japanese has always been a dream of mine since I have this great love of the art, music, tradition--basically the entirety of the culture. After ten or so years of dreaming to visit Japan it's finally coming to fruition this upcoming fall. I thought to myself what would be a better time to study a language I've been long aspiring to learn. I've tried a handful of products over these years from Rosetta Stone to Pimsluer, but there always seemed to be a piece missing.

When I first tried Rocket Languages I noticed it had the piece that I was always yearning for in a language learning program, it's modern. Languages change over the years, and the preference of words is very important to sound authentic. Knowing what is more current in society compared to a more archaic can really make or break the authenticity.

Another great thing that Rocket Languages does is that they cover a wide spectrum of the language--you get to really understand the language . I love that it really focuses on everything from speaking, writing and culture. And besides just memorizing a phrase like some programs do, Rocket Languages pushes you to truly understand what it means.

Over all I highly recommend Rocket Languages to anyone who is interested in picking up another language!

The interactive audio lessons are so fun, non-stressful, and easy to use. I love the feature that allows me to input translations just by highlighting the words in the conversation and then test myself by going through it on my own. I download the lessons I'm working on and listen to them in the car or at work. I've already recommended Rocket Languages to most of my family and friends! Rocket Languages is nearly perfect but one thing I'd like to see at some point is more audio reviews with different uses of the words from the lesson and a review covering literally everything up to the present point. So if I'm at lesson 1.3, i'd like to see a review covering 1.0-1.3 on it. Or if I'm at lesson 3.2, I'd like to review 1.0-3.2 at some point to make sure I haven't forgotten the basics.
