With the Rosetta Stone^® method, you'll speak Japanese from the very first lesson. And you'll receive real-time feedback every time you speak. Our proprietary speech recognition engine, the most advanced in the industry, compares your pronunciation to millions of native speakers 100 times per second. Instant feedback means that at every step, you'll know exactly how you're doing.

The best part about learning Japanese is speaking it. And who better to converse with than a native Japanese speaker? We get it. That's where Live Tutoring comes in. At optimal points in your course, we'll nudge you to schedule an online session to connect with a native Japanese-speaking tutor for experience practicing your new skills!

Even though they're carefully structured to reinforce exactly what you've learned, these sessions are totally casual. And convenient, round-the-clock availability allows you to schedule your session when it suits your schedule.

Languages are made to be shared. And when you learn a new language the Rosetta Stone^® way, you're never alone. Our online community gives you exclusive access to millions of other learners—for the opportunity to refine your new skills in language games and activities specifically matched to what you're learning.
