I’d say that the two weeks we got as Summer Short Term students before starting the actual Summer Term with the international students helped a lot. It prepared me for the intensity and structure of the program. I’d say the structure of the program and every day classes were very helpful in advancing my Japanese skills. Switching from some review and practice with my peers, to dictation, to kanji, etc, was engaging. I just think the intensity and structure of the program was ideal, at least for me.

Having a focus on conversation is such a key part on why I chose this school so I really loved that we practiced so much speaking in class.

I found kanji to be one of my struggles but the in class explanations of kanji and showing the proper stoke orders helped me immensely.

Aaliyah from Spring 2016

I enjoyed the field trip activities that were given to us because it allowed us to experience some parts of Japan that we would experience if we were on vacation but with the help of knowledgable teachers and KCP employees.
