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

I have tried dozen of language learning courses including: Rosetta Stone, Duo Lingual, Udemy, etc. However, I think Rocket Languages is one of the best because it is well-structured with balanced among reading, writing, listening and speaking skills.

I was previously on a Rosetta Stone subscription but found the way that the lessons were structured did not line up with real life scenarios. Straight from the beginning, Rocket Languages teaches you introductions and essential phrases.

I plan to live in Japan for a year and find that Rocket Languages gives me the confidence to keep going.

By far the best website for learning a new language. For me learning a new language was extremely overwhelming but the way they break things down makes it a lot easier. Thanks Rocket Languages. 5 stars.

The amount of information here is staggering for a beginner like myself,however I'm lucky for 2 reasons.Firstly,I have been using Memrise for 18 months so many of the words are familiar to me and secondly my Philipinna wife lived in Japan for 25 years and is completely fluent in Japanese so I don't have a problem with the voice playback as I never use it.The customer service is fantastic and I would recommend this program to anyone,my wife says it is a bit formal but it's better to learn formal and go down than learn anime and try to go up.Great program guys,thanks to Sayaka san and Kenny san(he's ok for a pommy).

I currently live in Japan and have found this program extremely helpful. It has allowed me to communicate with the locals and for us to actually understand each other. I was actually told by some that I speak amazing Japanese.

I have used many resources to learn Japanese. I use Rocket Japanese to test what I learned, and learn topic specific language. Even just using it in that limited capacity it has been tremendously helpful. I spent almost 6 months in Japan during 2016. The things I learned here were invaluable for navigating restaurants, convenience stores, and many other activities.

When I bought this package I was looking for something like the Spanish101, Chinese101, etc series. I wanted something I could listen to while I ran or commuted places. The main reason I picked this was that it isn't a subscription service. I bought it and I was done.

After buying it I realized it was more interactive and engaging than my previous experiences with podcasts. Besides the engaging, and silly Japanese hosts, the activities to verify I am learning became a big help. I also loved that I could skip around to any lesson I felt I needed to work on. I have had this product long enough to see 2 new versions released and each time, the upgrades have made the product more usable, and helped me come back and work on my Japanese some more.

There are a few places they could improve. I know there is a lot more to learn. It would be great to see more levels, allowing people to advance further. Another improvement would be for them to speed up their conversations more. I feel that by the end of the third level they should be speaking at native or near native speed.

After taking a few Japanese courses in college, I ended up moving and having no access to formal instruction. While I was able to learn a few words here and there through various internet sources, most free resources give only very basic information about grammar and writing. I purchased a few textbooks which helped explain some basic grammar and writing, but there was no way to effectively test what I had learned. I was able to read and write a bit better, but I had next to no experience speaking the language since nobody around me also spoke it. So I finally started looking up instructional courses and stumbled upon Rocket Japanese.

As a full-time college student, it is a bit pricey, but nowhere near as bad as some other courses, and it's definitely not as expensive as a college course. It also covers more ground than my previous college courses did! As of now, I've finished the first module and gotten started on the second. I have a few criticisms, but they're mostly related to organization and romanization. The content itself is great, though the audio lessons start off with exaggerated pronunciation for people who have never heard or spoken the language before. It appears to lessen as you progress.

The Rocket Japanese course is simple to use at the earlier levels, but with increasing level of detail and complexity needed for such a complex language.

Audios are clear and enjoyable. Unfortunately the mobile apps don't always seem to work as well as the web based programme - particularly for recording - otherwise I would rate higher.

While I've already finished 4 semesters of Japanese class which ended me on the intermediate level, I found this site and was intrigued on the amount of content and materials they are selling. At first, I doubt myself if I will find it not worth it to try the materials starting from the basics... But after finishing a module, I found myself again refreshed and learned something new especially on the conversation and grammar side.

It's a new experience which adds as a reinforcement to my current Japanese knowledge. The interactive audio which takes an average of 20 - 30 minutes is kinda nice to listen to. They are very detailed and yet explained clearly. Other things like the quiz and vocabulary identification is kinda nice too plus the culture notes which emphasizes on how you should act on different circumstances where the language is really native too.

I'm happy to say that it's really worth it if you're either a beginner or already in intermediate level.
