Simply enjoyable, don't need to spend too much time.
I think for some who don't know how to start, it's just a good tool.
But unfortunately I didn't find the full course, what I have it's only for beginners and intermediates, but not advance learners courses.
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
This is a great site to help you learn a language. I am using it to learn Italian, having grown up around the language, i thought I already knew the basics, but this has helped me to learn how to speak properly and learn even more! It's very thorough in it's explanations of why certain words are used and how to learn the correct grammar and forms of the words. The voice recognition is an excellent tool in helping you to make sure your pronunciation is correct. It works best with headphones and helps to point out which parts of a sentence you are saying incorrectly, then you can mark it easy or hard so you can come back to it later if you need more practice. They also have a wonderful app that allows you to practice on the go! Honestly without the app, i might never get on to practice, i’m usually too lazy to actually get onto the computer so the app has been fantastic. You can do everything on the app that you can on the website. Customer service is great, I had trouble using the app at first so i sent an email and got a very quick reply. They are also open to suggestions on what you think can be improved so that you can learn easier. Money well spent!
Rocket Spanish is a program that you have to be able to dedicate your time to. If you are not dedicated toward going through the material you will not learn like you should. If you are willing to put in the time you will get there. You can not just listen to a lesson each day. You need to learn the lesson you have that day and then you are done for the day. The material is solid but the will power to cover the material has to be there. Long story short, you will get what you put in.
I've had this a few weeks now, but I've been so busy with work, that I haven't taken the necessary time to keep up with the lessons. However, I should be able to get the block of time needed to proceed soon. The transcripts are very helpful to me since I have a hearing loss that is not too helpful learning French (or speaking English!) If patience is a virtue, the Rocket staff should be eligible for sainthood soon.
I had tried the FREE trial at first and it seems i learned few basics french words and i enjoy the process of learning. I easily get bored with some other language learning apps i purchased previously. Finally, i decided to buy this very enjoyable yet very systematic language application. The survival kit, language and cultural lessons helps me a lot for a deeper understanding of the language. The interactive audio lessons just motivated me to be awake... NOW, its my turn to focus my study. BONNE CHANCE à tous!
I began learning Hindi when I lived in Mumbai several years ago, but found it challenging to find ways to practice once I moved back to the United States. Rocket Language provided the answer to that dilemma! I have found their program invaluable, and very easy to use! I recommend this program to anyone who is a beginner Hindi student, especially those who would like practice speaking with correct pronunciation and mastering Devanagari!
Hello all,
This is the best inspiration apps to learn all Japanese cultural and language by myself. Many thanks to Sayaka-san and Rocket JP team for the most useful tools on this web. I was premium member of this packages, that I can come back to practices and improve my language skill anytime I want. So, that's great to me every time I launch to Rocket Languages .
Thank you
Easy to use and very 'friendly' in their approach. Well thought out and comprehensive coverage of the subject - what more could one ask for?

I started with the French course 10 days ago. I struggled to learn french in school but am finding this a much more pleasant and effective approach. Like the focus on spoken french with the gradual introduction of grammar rules. I found the lessons engaging and the right amount of information to absorb at one go - and the various supporting tools (dialogues. reviews, flashcards, etc). are all helpful in reinforcing the initial learning. I had to travel to Brussels and after a week of study I had the confidence to engage in basic dialogues in French - honestly! Compared to French language lessons I think it offers good value for money.
Only downsides are that only the lessons are downloadable and you need to be online to use other resources. Also if you don't have chrome a lot of the features like voice recognition are unavailable. No use of customer service - should be a N/A option on the star ratings.
