This is a very good tool for learning a new language. The lessons are detailed, but with enough repetition to ensure you understand before moving on to the next lesson and the audio is very clear. The follow up exercises are invaluable and a good way to reinforce what you have learned. An added bonus was the little insights to the cultural aspects of the people, as well as the language. I will be travelling to Japan 4 weeks after starting my Rocket course and am confident that, at the very least, I will be able to communicate on a base level, that is, have a full understanding of the basic greetings, introductions, pleasantries etc.
Thanks Rocket.
