I selected the KCP language program because I wanted to immerse myself in Japanese culture. I wanted to improve my Japanese, and there are glowing reviews of the teachers at KCP. The final verdict was decided when I looked up how much the program costs, and I realized that the short-term summer program is significantly more affordable than many other programs.

Other students may hate me for saying so, but I feel that having frequent, small tests was very helpful. It’s a little stressful, but having frequent tests helped keep me on my toes as far as studying. When tests are spaced apart, it’s easy to get caught up in everyday life.

I liked the excursion around Shinjuku. Introducing students to stores and things to do was great.

Isabella from Summer Short 2023

The most productive was the dictation tests and practice in class. It really forced me to get better at writing and writing quick in Japanese.
