I really enjoyed the class activities, such as the barbecue trip, and the English program special trips.

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

The thing I found the most interesting at KCP was exclusively speaking Japanese with my classmates. Because there are many different languages spoken, I found it very fun and challenging to speak to classmates in a language we’re all learning.

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

Flash cards, such as the Japanese app and anki

I found tests to be a good indicator of where I was at over homework. The homework only covered one topic usually, but tests would cover a wider variety of them mixed around. I’ve never studied Japanese from a textbook in this style, so the textbooks have been extremely helpful in visualizing Japanese grammar points.
