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?

Testimonials

I wanted to be in a major city in Japan and learn Japanese, and this program had good reviews online in addition to being affiliated with several universities that I knew of. There was also a decent amount of information available online from non-official sources, which gave me good information on living arrangements and general life as a student.
