I like how I was able to meet a diverse group of people.

Which events or activities did you find the most satisfying and why?

I really enjoyed the sushi making experience because I’ve never done anything like it before and I love sushi.

What were the most productive and interesting aspects of the program for you? The least interesting and productive?

I like how I was able to meet a diverse group of people. I also think that the textbooks were implemented very well. The only thing I wanted more was conversation days.

What activities or materials did you find most helpful (e.g., pair work, drill practice, tests, small group sessions, textbooks, games)?

I liked the short kanji tests everyday because they kept me focused on studying everyday. I also liked when we went over the grammar in the textbook.

Any suggestions for improving class activities or materials?

Maybe there could be short grammar tests everyday too.

Anything you especially liked in the living arrangements? Any problems you experienced?

The dorm room was so nice and comfortable! We also had a dorm party which was really fun.

What dorm did you live in or host family did you live with?

Ikebukuro

Not only did I have a great time at KCP, but the improvement I’ve witnessed in my Japanese proficiency is astounding. I still can’t quite believe I’ve learned so much in such a short time. Although I’m sad that I’m leaving by the end of this term, I’ll always have fond memories of my time here. I am truly grateful to all the staff, especially the instructors, as well as my fellow classmates for making my time here exceptional. I highly and without hesitation recommend KCP International Japanese Language School to anyone looking to learn Japanese.
