The calligraphy and tea ceremony activities were the most satisfying because I got experience different forms of Japanese culture.

I found drill practice and homework the most helpful.

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

The homestay gave me a lot of Japanese listening and speaking practice.

KCP is an intensive program but it really improves your Japanese ability, so be sure to study and take advantage of the great teachers.

Testimonials

If you’re considering KCP, just sign up. If you have to, save up for it. It was worth it. I continue to learn the language, I continue to make new friends, I continue to find new, unfamiliar and exciting places and all of this was possible because I made the decision to learn at KCP. I have met some really great people (friends as well as teachers) who have helped me grow as a person. I’m thankful for this time I’ve spent here. It really has gone by too fast but I will forever remember the memories I’ve made here.
