Japan, Japanese people, and the Japanese language will surprise and delight you every day.

Elizabeth from Summer Short 2019

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

The field trip to the Kokkai Gijidou was so fun and informative!

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

I loved starting to read kanji! I would have liked to have more conversational vocabulary introduced earlier. For example, I never learned how to ask someone how they were feeling, or tell others how I am feeling.

Any comments or tips for prospective/new KCP students?

If you want a challenge, then this program in definitely what you’re looking for. I came into the program with very basic knowledge of Japanese and am definitely excited about how much I have improved. Learning a language isn’t instant and it takes a while to sink in, but the longer you’re here you become more motivated to utilize what you learn and to continue to progress in your studies. And all of the instructors and office staff are some of the most friendly and approachable people I have ever met. They really make the whole experience quite enjoyable!
