I really enjoy using this program. You are able to hear the Japanese pronunciation and also learn katakana, which I don’t know. The little insights into Japanese culture is helpful too.

I bought this because of the price and the reviews. I had taken part of a semester of Japanese at the city college and boy was I disappointed. I have a good deal of language learning experience and I just felt like the teacher I had was making it way too complicated (although I think she was trying to make it easier in her defense). It really isn’t all that difficult of complex a language. It’s simply mysterious because of the writing system and grammar differences.
Here’s my advice. Take the hiragana and write down the first ten characters. Repeat repeat repeat until you can do it from memory. Then add ten more. Repeat procedure. You will have all of your hiragana and katakana down in no time. Honestly, a couple of days would suffice if you really want to learn it quickly. Once you have that down, you will feel like you have your feet on the ground and the rest will not be so scary. If you would like to practice, you can google “hiragana practice” or something like that and find quite a few little quizzes or games, etc. That’s a good way to keep it current.
Anyway, Human Japanese is exactly that, human. It’s not going to treat you like a robot student and try to program you with information. Expect to be told digestable amounts of information. It will obviously be quite different than English, so just accept it and move on. Things will start to come together before long and you will find there are some things you actually understand. This is encouraging. Now and then, bits and pieces of cultural knowledge will come up to break up the lessons and keep it from getting boring. This is all done in a very friendly way, as if you were learning from a gentle tutor who just wants you to enjoy learning and eventually understand. Honestly, this is how it should be.
Also, customer support is very friendly.

I needed to find a good software that will teach me both grammer and vocabulary since I could no longer go to my tutor. This product gave me that and is excellent. I recommend it for anyone who wants to learn Japanese. It’s affordable and will teach you more than other $400 products will.
