This course of studies is undoubtedly the best that I have come across regarding distant learning. I can recommend rocket languages without any hesitation to anyone who wants to learn a foreign language .Congratulations kenny and Siaka over your teaching skill! (O JOZU DES NE!)
It's really great website. I am learning Japanese then Korean, SUPERB !!!1
When I first started University back in 2017 I decided to take on the Japanese language and looked at so many resources. Rocket languages came up back then but I passed on it because of the price (poor student life). I tried many other resources but none of them really teach the language more than show you some phrases and make you memorise stuff.
I decided to try learn the language again and after finishing all the free lessons I figured I should make use of the discount and took the dive to purchase the course. I have only been learning for 4 days so far but in that time I have learnt more that I did in 2 weeks back when I first tried.
Everything is covered from written language, spoken language, grammar, you name it!
Highly recommend Rocket Japanese to anyone looking to give it a try. I'm sure the other languages are great too!
I am happy with my Japanese lessons so far and excited to see how far I go and at what speed. I am really enjoying the lessons
Rocket japan is great, I haven't finished yet but I can already talk to my Japanese classmates. I had purchased it during a sale and got all 3 levels for 150 which for me made it a good deal but after using it I definitely would have bought it at full price. definitely recommend this if you're on the fence between two different programs rocket japan is just so polished, not to mention they have an app that works amazingly well. 10 out of 10 I recommend.
i love the lessons in this website also you learn fast and easy. then they also have good pacing skills.
Been living in Japan for a year and a half now but I have difficulty picking up the language since I have no background. I read about rocket by googling best online Japanese courses and I did the trial and was disappointed when I couldn't do anymore so I decided to purchase it. I have been on it for a few days now and I must say I like it. I have not had it enough time to give a raving review but I really like the layout and the explanations that come with the course. I will definitely return and give another rating after using the course for a while and trying to practice with the natives. So Far so good.
I learned Japanese for the first time, in Japan, 32 years ago. I bought this course to refresh and expand my skills. It is fantastic. Love it. It makes my brain work hard and it's doing exactly what I wanted it to. I will keep plugging away, and keep improving. A great course, with a great, easy to follow format. It's like having your own private Japanese tutor.

Hi Peter, thank you for your review. It's awesome to hear that studying with Rocket Japanese feels like having your own private tutor. We wish you all the best with your Japanese language learning!
I am enjoying the lessons so far but is a bit difficult to understand why the same word has different translations. Specifically "Hajime mashite". It is a bit off-putting. The rating on customer service can be ignored, I have not had the need to contact them. I am happy with the price but mainly because I got it at a 60% discount. Not sure I would have bought it otherwise. I also wish that there was a notification in the app that the voice recognition is much better on PC. I found that on the app it didn't recognize a difference with me ending in "masu" or "mashita" even though it wanted the latter.
I'm not going to sugarcoat this, so don't look for it in any Rocket promotional material. :-)
Had a little bit of an issue when trying to buy this product. Wasn't Rocket's fault and they were very helpful in getting it resolved.
I am currently at lesson 2.4.
This is a good product for learning and practicing speech in Japanese. The exercises are very geared towards that, along with some writing.While it has been great for speech, I use a different product for grammar.
The interface is simple to figure out and use, so you don't have to waste a lot of time trying to figure out how to do courses. Japanese is hard enough as it is without trying to master a weird interface too.
This is really meant to help the student SPEAK the language, not necessarily stressing grammar too much, though it might in later lessons.
I've used a lot of tools for learning Japanese, but Rocket is the best at making you speak the language instead of just listening to lessons. That's why I purchased the whole product.
As for issues with the software, I had a few minor ones. At first, I would either have audio, or I could record my voice, but not both. To resolve this, I had to completely reinstall my browser.

Thanks for pointing out the spacing issue when writing reviews. We will fix that asap! Also, it is possible to flag (from within the Tests) phrases like the example you give. We can then look into what is causing that
