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.

Very good program. Having technical difficulties, however, therefore I am unable to use it correctly.

Could I get a refund.

There are many many good lessons. I like it basically but due to technical difficulties I am not able to use it as it was intended

Love the courses I bought! I have made so much progress in learning Japanese. Would recommend this to anyone trying to learn a new language. Listen to my courses on my walks in the park or even walking to work. It's amazing!

This is such an incredible learning resource for all those looking to learn any language, not just Japanese! I'm growing more confident with every lesson I take and I am really enjoying learning! This is definitely a course that I will buy again - perhaps even recommend it to a friend, too!

it is a bit pricey and it could use some quality of life improvements(please) but overall it does a pretty good job of teaching, so it's worth it imo. i have tried other apps but none compare to this.

Thank you so much for re-recording the Japanese modules entirely with native speakers so that we can have an immersion experience in Japanese. That is so important. I found the original, non-native Kenny's voice to be very jarring. It is so much more pleasant to listen to the gentle speaking voice of the native male speaker. The format has always been excellent and I'll be devoting more time to Rocket lessons now.

Love everything so far, but I’ve noticed that you are changing the voice actors with the audio files. In my opinion, I’d prefer the original combination of the English Kenny and the ‘Osaka’ kansai-jin Sayaka...especially Sayaka, whose accent, in both nihongo-ga and eigo-ga is very helpful in terms of realistic Japanese phonetics. The new Sayaka is less ‘endearing’ and the new Kenny-san has perhaps a too refined Kanto-style accent.

I am very happy with this learning program for Japanese. It is very hard to find decent learning sites that will teach you Japanese. Also, I am able to use this product for free by going through my library. If you have a library card, this will benefit you greatly if your local library has it available.
