Rocket Japanese Reviews
Find out what actual users have to say about our courses through their Rocket Japanese reviews.
I wanted to begin learning Japanese and wasn't sure where to start, but this course has been great and helped very much! The guided lessons and structure are awesome but the additional information and other learning formats with each lesson (flashcards/speaking practice/etc) really make the course that much better because I can go down rabbit holes of info whenever I want to but have a main structure to come back to as well. I haven't made it very far yet but am loving the beginning!

Welcome to Rocket Japanese, Brooke! We're so glad to hear that we are helping you in your new Japanese journey. We're sure that you'll be speaking Japanese quickly with us by your side. We wish you all the best.
The courses are educational and fun. I like how Rocket Languages focuses on hearing, speaking, and reading all at the same time; it really helps remember and learn about the language. I have so far really enjoyed learning with it, as well as with some extra resources.

Thank you for your review. We're proud to incorporate all these different aspects of language learning to help learners retain as much information as possible in whichever way suits them best. We wish you all the best with your Japanese journey.
the kanji test in the first lesson is a little too advance
Response from Rocket Languages
Hi Tony, we don't expect beginners to Japanese to know kanji right away, but we still feel it's important to include these tests so that our users can go back at a later date once they have learned some of the kanji. As such, these tests do not count towards completion, and you can simply skip them if you have not yet learned the kanji. All the best!
Helps me remember what I learned especially with the lessons that have audio files so that I can learn how to say it
Response from Rocket Languages
It's great to hear that you are taking advantage of the Audio Lessons to practice your pronunciation. With more practice, you'll be speaking Japanese perfectly in no time!

At first I thought that Rocket Japanese was a great course. However, I became very disappointed with the way they structure things. The conversations are very limited and the grammar is poorly explained. Japanese is a very structured and logical language and Rocket Japanese does a poor job of conveying the structure. I am overall very disappointed with the course.
I bought the entire Japanese course, yet Rocket continues to send me marketing and promotional emails telling me to buy their japanese course when I already have.

Thank you for your review! We appreciate your feedback and thoughts however, we know that many of our learners are just starting out with Japanese or learning a second language for the first time. That’s why we focus on keeping our courses accessible by starting with simple conversations and grammatical explanations and gradually moving on to more advanced topics. If you’re facing any specific grammar challenges, feel free to reach out to us at [email protected]. We’d be happy to help you out!
I have been progressing so much in no time, I wish there was more of it , rocket JLPTN3 would be awesome

We're so glad to hear that you're enjoying Rocket Japanese, Carlos! If you haven't already, I would suggest checking out our extension course, Rocket Japanese Play the Part!
As someone who's been using Rocket Japanese for years and generally liking it, I'm writing this review to express my frustration. AGAIN you have redesigned the app in a way that seriously hurts the functionality! Why do you keep doing this? (Especially with no option to switch back?). Why did you decide to make the kanji suddenly very small, forcing me to zoom in on phone? Makes the kanji lessons a huge pain! Change it back! Im getting tired of you guys constantly screwing up your own app!

Thank you for your feedback, Brion! We understand your concerns and that updates can interrupt your learning. However, please know that all our updates aim to improve the usability of the course and, therefore, your language learning experience. As was the case prior to the update, font and script sizes can be enlarged in your phone settings. If you have any further feedback, we'd love to hear it, so please reach out to [email protected]!
Systematically structured lessons for learning Japanese step by step and little by little
Response from Rocket Languages
At Rocket, we understand that it's not enough to just repeat what you hear when it comes to language learning. That's why we make sure to provide thorough explanations of all the grammar points you encounter, so you can effectively apply what you learn to real-life conversations. Keep up the great work, Shane!
I have tried a few different apps and ways electronically to improve my Japanese. This is the most comprehensive. I am also happy to see that is transfers seamlessly between my desktop website and my mobile apps. The best so far. ありがとうございます
