I've been to Japan several times and have learned a few words and phrases during my visits. However, the language was always very intimidating to me, and I found it hard to grasp much of the structure and flow of the language. This course has made learning so much easier. It is a great system for me personally, as it allows me to really change up the day-to-day learning activities. It truly keeps the learning experience fresh and fun. I appreciate all of the activities that accompany each lesson. The audio dialogue is a lot of fun and provides many useful phrases and words for upcoming trips to Japan. The dialogue in each lesson deals with situations that are easy to visualize, thus helping with retention of the accompanying language. One aspect of this course that I find really helpful is the incorporation of elements from previous lessons into subsequent lessons. Not only does each lesson begin with a recap of a previous lesson, but words and phrases from previous lessons are often reused, but in different contexts and situations. This really helps with learning the language and understanding subtle differences due to different contexts. I would highly recommend this course to any serious would-be student of Japanese!

It's okay, it should go into more detail and provide lessons about writing in Japanese, as well as the speaking ones. I like pie as well, make a lesson about pie and fat potatoes. That's it. Byeeeeeee!!!

Rocket Japanese is amazing. Since it includes interactive audio lessons, I find it much easier compared to going to the bookstore and buy a book with all this stuff. Because of this audio lessons I find it easier to pronounce Japanese words and I can also assure that you will learn the correct pronunciation using this interactive audio lessons since one of the hosts is a native Japanese speaker. Another thing I liked about it is you can download the audio file and also the pdf file that goes with it, and you can study the language offline. There are also games which you can play that serves as a review or a test for you which is really fun to do. Its set up of how to learn this language is not boring. Its really fun to learn a language with the interactive audio lessons. It seems like you are having a one on one lesson with a friend who is a native speaker of the language you are trying to learn. And I really admire Sayaka and Kenny since they always sound so enthusiastic to teach Japanese language in every audio lessons.
Being a Jrock fan I think Rocket Japanese is one of the reasons why I am now able to communicate to other fans in a better way. And also, now I can understand some lyrics from the Jrock songs I'm listening to without any translations. Thanks Rocket Japanese!

I have found this program very accessible, easy to use and helpful. The learning curve is well paced and the learning resources that are provided to you are plentiful. The audio lessons are also quite entertaining considering that they are a learning tool.

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 made an account here only two days ago, but I already learned words and phrases, which are really helpful. Also, I played one of the games offered and I could translate some of the sentences by myself while playing! Rocket Japanese is awesome!

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.

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.
