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

I rather liked the sense of community that the culture class trips generated.

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

I felt that the focus on conversation in class was quite valuable. Good teachers and helpful staff too. The least productive... Nothing really comes to mind.

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

Probably audio practice helped me the most.

What did you find most valuable in the Culture Course?

The sense of community that being in the course garnered. Also going around and seeing interesting places was a lot of fun too, as was the instructor's knowledgeability.

Testimonials

Because I am a huge fan of research and spreadsheets, I created an excel worksheet comparing numerous Japanese study abroad programs by cost, housing, length of study, and many other comparison points. Overall, KCP came out superior based on the amount of things that you get for the price. After completing the program, I can say choosing KCP was a perfect decision. KCP is a real school — professional teachers, strict grading systems, textbooks – the whole package. KCP proved to be much more than I expected – the classes are tough, but it taught me how to work harder, build a work ethic, and I am coming out with many rich experiences thanks to KCP. This school truly prepares you for higher levels and entrance into Japanese colleges.
