I AM JUST BEGINNING THE ROCKET PROGRAM, AND SO FAR ITS VERY CONVENIENT AND COMPLETE. DEFINITELY ALSO MUCH LESS COSTLY THAN BERLITZ CLASSES I USED IN THE PAST AS ONE OF THE FEW ALTERNATIVES AVAILABLE AT THE TIME. THIS IS NOW POSSIBLE VIA ROCKET AND THE INTERNET.

I heard about this from searching google on if I could survive in Japan without knowing much Japanese. I found a recommendation by someone to try out this site, and I could already do a few basic things such as count to 10 and say hello, goodbye, good morning, etc. However from just the few basic things it went over so far and some words I didn't know, like Yokoso is Welcome. I have already learned fairly quickly. I am loving this program so far and will continue to use it.

Starting with almost no knowledge of Japanese, the Rocket Language course got me speaking some phrases straight away. The Rocket Record feature has been excellent for boosting my confidence and helping me to correct my pronunciation. An excellent start to the program!

Hi! So many success stories here....And then there's me. haha. (Through no fault of Rocket Japanese!)
I ordered Rocket Japanese back in 2008 I think it was, so I should have learned a lot of Japanese by now - but I'm a horrible self-motivator, and often slack off on projects I start. I don't actually have a pressing need to learn Japanese - so it's hard for me to make myself buckle down study like I should... (Maybe someday I'll meet a cute little 'reason' to need to learn Japanese...haha)
I'm glad I ordered the course. I remember a lot of what I learned when I was studying. The course is effective - it works! I do want to get back to it and continue to learn more.... (^_^) Thanks!!

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 tutorial is one of the best I have experience. It starts from the very basic with a detail explanation both in grammar and in context. It is excellent. I do recommend my friend to try this if for learning Japanese

I really happy about learning languages with Rocket Languages. I completely found it helpful.
I excitedly learn how to speak Japanese every morning. It makes me feel like having a friend to talk to.
I am going to keep on learning other languages with this website after being able to speak Japanese.

I spent ten years studying Mandarin Chinese and learned a fair amount about language learning in the process. I'm studying Japanese now using Rocket Japanese and have found it to be an efficient, effective platform for language self-learning. One small area for improvement would be to cut out the intro music and unnecessary banter in the downloadable audio lessons. They're nice to listen to the first time but get in the way while reviewing lessons. The other area that needs improvement is the Write It! lessons. The keyboard is too small and the main Hiragana keyboard only contains 45 of the 46 Hiragana characters, repeating the tsu character instead. The final Hiragana character, wo, is on the Alt keyboard rather than on the main keyboard in place of the redundant tsu character. It would also be very helpful if a Romaji keyboard was provided as it takes considerable hunting to find the right Hiragana characters for someone unfamiliar with them.
