Rocket Languages review criteria
I have two other Rocket Language programs and am now trying Spanish. Like the others, it's very user-friendly with easy-to-navigate, comprehensive modules. I love that you can go at your own pace without hassle, (which comes in very handy with my slow approach to Mandarin!) The lessons are logically arranged and build on previous lessons. Testing, quizzes, reviews, pronunciation tools, (like record and compare,) make Rocket Languages the best system I've ever seen or used. Most programs simply drill you in vocabulary, but RL teaches you a language AND its culture! They are truly the best!
This is an essential tool for anybody learning not only Japanese but I think for any foreign language. For a couple of years I'd taken private lessons but it just became too expensive. Rocket Language is as good and in a lot of way s better than those private lessons, and so much cheaper. Its helped immensely in my conversational skills and the best thing I can study when it suits me. I'm so impressed with Rocket Language I recently took up the Hindi, Chinese and Sign Language courses. Thinking of doing one more, not sure which yet. Maybe German?
Today was my first day using Rocket Languages (Japanese Premium) and I can honestly say that in the first audio lesson I learned 90% of the material that was covered in the first hour. I can not say that for my three years spent in French class in high school. This first hour was incredible and really motivates me to want to come back tomorrow and use it again. Especially the way you can grade yourself so you know what to work on for later. Rocket Languages is a sound investment for anyone who wishes to learn another language.
Great supplement to living and working in Japan and understanding the meaning of what I hear everyday! The material is practical and used every day, but may need other programs to learn the basics of the hiragana and katakana.
I really enjoy this program. Well worth the price so far and I am very excited to continue to use it. I am eager to learn all I can so that I can experience the beautiful country of Japan and not seem like a complete gaijin.
Rocket Languages is a very fun way to learn new languages. I personally have learned a lot from this website but, I think the prices are to high if they were a little bit lower I think a lot of more people would come, weather it be by referral or just finding it on Google. I personally would recommend this to my friends if the prices were not so high, I did find this website on Google and I'm glad I did, I have learned a lot more than I would have just left on my own to find it.
The layout of the program is clear and understandable. The audio lessons with Kenny-san and Sayaka are educational and entertaining. The games that come with the program are a great way to build vocabulary without too much cognitive strain. I've really enjoyed the program.
I have enjoyed watching Japanese anime shows for years. With just a few lessons of Rocket Japanese, I'm beginning to pick out certain words and phrases without the need to read the subtitles. I look forward to a better understanding of the language by the end of the course!
While I've already finished 4 semesters of Japanese class which ended me on the intermediate level, I found this site and was intrigued on the amount of content and materials they are selling. At first, I doubt myself if I will find it not worth it to try the materials starting from the basics... But after finishing a module, I found myself again refreshed and learned something new especially on the conversation and grammar side.
It's a new experience which adds as a reinforcement to my current Japanese knowledge. The interactive audio which takes an average of 20 - 30 minutes is kinda nice to listen to. They are very detailed and yet explained clearly. Other things like the quiz and vocabulary identification is kinda nice too plus the culture notes which emphasizes on how you should act on different circumstances where the language is really native too.
I'm happy to say that it's really worth it if you're either a beginner or already in intermediate level.
Having tried other Japanese learning solutions (Books with audio files and other software solutions), I can say for sure that Rocket Languages has a clear advantage: it is very effective and comprehensive while being user friendly and interactive.
I especially enjoy the Web version, voice recognition and the quality and structure of dialogues which don't make them boring.
