I loved the trip to the Yamanashi prefecture! I made some amazing friends during that trip - friendships that lasted the entire term. I loved going to see and do everything there, and it was so much fun!

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

I could not stop studying. I could not stop studying - but I always knew WHAT to study. There was always a clear path for learning, and I could feel and see the improvement in my skills every single day.

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

Pair work, drill practice, and honestly tests helped me the most.

Any comments or tips for prospective/new KCP students?

Good luck guys! You’re in for a hard program, but the results are so rewarding and definitely worth it!

I loved meeting new people in my classes and being able to practice Japanese almost every day. I loved living in Japan as if I were Japanese and absorbing the culture.
