Rocket Language is a great learning tool. I had put it down for a while but just picked it back up again and I am loving the changes. It is teaching me conversational Japanese and writing which is very important. I do it in conjunction with podcasts from japancast.net and it has been great.

I like the mix of writing speaking, etc. And I like that it is all online and I can do it at my own pace. I am hoping to be able to read and write well in a few months and I feel like I am making great strides to get there.

Thank you ROCKET LANGUAGE!!!

This program has only gotten better as the years have gone bye. I have loved the updates on the site. It is easy to use, and easier to learn. The lessons are not too long, so it doesn't ever look overwhelming. There are games too, which make learning even more fun.

Rocket Japanese makes it easy and simple to learn and lessons are laid out in a sensible order to reinforce learning through various tools and reviewing techniques.

In addition the audio tracks are lively with a somewhat cheesy humour which i thought made it more of a fun experience :)

I really like Rocket Japanese! The lessons are fun and you can listen to them over and over. I have printed many of them out so I can study them when I'm not at my computer. I have also memorized a lot of the conversations.

Rocket Languages has put a lot of work into their website. They have a lot of tools to help you monitor your progress. The lesson-rating system gives you a good overview, there are lots of tests to evaluate how well you know the lessons, there are motivational articles and forums. And it's available wherever you are!

I found out about Rocket Languages on a website that displayed language teachers. This met my needs well and this is a great way to learn a language. I found this both affordable and a great teacher.

The (new) japanese course #1 was great, it made me buy #2 ... which is a mess. The audio is not good, the japanese accent of the english speaker is wrong, the delay for repeating the word is wrong and the content is sometime the same as #1.
To make it worse, the content is highly specific, like opening a bank account, which is really boring and useless for a beginner.

Today was my first day using Rocket Languages (Japanese Premium) and I can honestly say that in the first audio lesson I learned 90% of the material that was covered in the first hour. I can not say that for my three years spent in French class in high school. This first hour was incredible and really motivates me to want to come back tomorrow and use it again. Especially the way you can grade yourself so you know what to work on for later. Rocket Languages is a sound investment for anyone who wishes to learn another language.

I already speak some Japanese and I speak German very well. I am using these as a review through my local library system. One thing I found is a bit off and often is with Japanese is that you ask a person to write in Japanese but have the lessons for writing kana separate and ongoing with the other lessons. Also your keyboard input is slightly off from my foreign language IME...Your basic lessons only accept exact copies of what you have written when the kanji form and sometimes other writings are correct.

Probably the best language tool I've come across. Actually love it more than Rosetta Stone and Duolingo. I will definitely be paying for the full product.

The 6 day free preview is a blast to field languages to see if they will work for you. I strongly recommend everyone consider the ASL which is not what I typically expect to find in language courses. Full immersion with video only. Great for hearing and hard of hearing who are lip readers.

Tempted to overload with multiple languages (looked at Korean. After one look I have a far better understanding of written Korean)

Absolutely worth it!

I was pleasantly surprised by Rocket Japanese, I had tried other language learning websites before. But, none of them gave me the feeling of control that Rocket Japanese gives. With this website I can choose what I want to learn: when, for how long, and how much I want to cover. I think anyone serious about Rocket Japanese should at least give it a try.
