Rocket Japanese has been wonderful and fun and excellent at keeping me engaged and coming back. With the emphasis on speaking and pronunciation and practical language, I feel like I'm learning the important parts first. Highly recommended and I'm excited to keep going on my journey towards being a polyglot with this program.
So far I've only done the first lesson. Everything was good except the hirigana 'de' in dekimashita was missing a dakuten (") so I read it as tekimashita. I don't know if that is intentional or not. This was in the Getting started - Extra: sort kana section.

So far I really like the amount of speaking in this course. Some of the words are very hard from the beginning and trying to learn the Kanji at the same time is a bit difficult but I'm hoping it repeats a lot over time so that I may get better at speaking and reading the language.

We're so happy to hear you are enjoying the speaking tools we have woven into Rocket Japanese. In terms of repetition, you might enjoy the reinforcement tools that we offer with the course, like "Flashcards," "Hear it! Say it!" etc., they are a great way to get reading and talking in Japanese.
I love it! Because I can learn a lot of new words in this beautiful language

It is so amazing to hear that you are loving Rocket Japanese and that the grammar breakdowns are helping you understand the complex Japanese grammar. We're sure that the more you practice with Rocket Japanese, the better your language skills will become. We wish you all the best!
I bought this program to learn useful Japanese but it's not really helpful. The dialogue sets are more geared toward someone who speaks Japanese and not someone who needs to learn. As an example: there is a dialogue set about asking people if they speak Japanese, but not one that helps to you ask if they speak English or that YOU don't speak Japanese. It goes on from there. I've gotten very little actual useful phrases from this program and I'm upset I spent so much on it. My upcoming trip to Japan is not going to be helped by this program.

Hi Laurie-Beth, we're so sorry to hear that you are not finding the Japanese course useful. Our Japanese course is currently being reviewed and updated where any inconsistencies like this will be removed. We have passed this to the Rocket Japanese team to keep in mind during their review. We have also followed up with you via email on this issue. We wish you all the best!
at first i was skeptical because of the high price but i am very satisfied with my experience. the dialogue is a bit too cringy at times but overall the exercises is very good i had fun learning new words and phrases using the microphone voice detection and the different quizzes after the audio lesson i recommend the program and will likely try to learn other languages on this site.
Response from Rocket Languages
Thank you for your review. It's so great to hear how much you are enjoying the course. Our Japanese lessons are currently being rewritten so hopefully you will find this new dialogue more enjoyable. All the best!
the audio recognition needs work. Also stop asking me to review every six times i record a word.
