Learner Reviews

"The program was useful as I managed to pick up a few basic Japanese phrases and words in quite a short time! And it's really useful for work as my job is in tourism, and there are many Japanese travellers coming over. It's a very straightforward program, free and easy to learn! I really enjoyed learning on Gnowbe as I can embark on a learning journey on the go, just within your fingertips."

- Muhammad Mahadhir

"The program is very useful, especially there are "flashcards" that I can always look back. The recording of a native Japanese is also very useful, it will correct my pronunciation. I find it easy to learn, as they are simple quiz after each lesson to refresh my memory. It was not a stressful process, as I can take my own time to complete the lesson."

- Poh Leng Seah

"It was great that the presentations were put online, that way I can follow in the lesson and not have to worry about frantically take down notes and worry about not getting everything."

- Roszanah AB Rahman

"For a bite-size learning module, this is fun and interesting. It was easy to learn, and we can always refer to past sessions to recap. A good creation of a mobile elearning tool."

- Rosalind Lim
