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

The readings once again were quite interesting and a good way to practice what we've learned. As an American, the Katakana might not have been as necessary but it was still good practice to try explaining the words using Japanese.

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

Though the pace was overwhelming at level 4, by Level 5 I was able to be used to the amount of Kanji learned daily, and the daily tests really helped with that and helped me understand which characters I needed to focus on for the larger weekly tests.

If you’re looking for an intensive course, then KCP is the place to go! Although it was hard work, it was also a lot of fun and I’m very pleased with my current language skill – and I’ve only just finished Level 1! Going out with the class for a final dinner really showed me how much we’d learnt as we had no problems in conveying our feelings even though our only common language was Japanese. I’d come back in a heartbeat.
