Drill practice and the English support groups helped a lot.
Which events or activities did you find the most satisfying and why?
I loved travelling outside of Tokyo on the buses and going to the peach farm. It was a lot of fun getting to hang out with everyone and just have a good time.
What were the most productive and interesting aspects of the program for you? The least interesting and productive?
I feel like the most productive times were in class when we were reviewing topics and speaking out-loud. Meanwhile not knowing what the right answer to things we got wrong hurt how well we could do.
What activities or materials did you find most helpful (e.g., pair work, drill practice, tests, small group sessions, textbooks, games)?
Drill practice and the English support groups helped a lot.

I loved that there was a ramen restaurant right below the dorm and a family-mart right next door.
What dorm did you live in or host family did you live with?
