KCP is very intensive, but if you do your homework and study and make an effort, you will learn SO fast.

David from Winter 2023

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

The Kamakura and DisneySea trips were fantastic, great experiences to have with my friends and teachers.

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

The program as a whole was incredibly productive. KCP is very intensive, but if you do your homework and study and make an effort, you will learn SO fast.

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

The Kanji textbook, and group/partner conversation practice.

Any comments or tips for prospective/new KCP students?

You have to make an effort to study and do your homework to keep up, but it will be worth it and you won’t learn Japanese faster anywhere else.

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.
