I really liked the sentaku jyugyou this quarter. The Love Letter class instructed by Moronaga Sensei was really fun in particular.

Keep up the good work, KCP. I honestly find it difficult to have any complaints without sounding picky therefore I think I am very happy with my choice in attending KCP.

I enjoyed most of the events but the best was the bus trip to Nikko because everyone in the school went and we were able to have fun together while throwing ninja stars at stuff. 🙂

Classes were always very informative, active and used plenty of examples to help me remember things. The conversations that were staged with native Japanese speakers were very good.

Do not be tempted to only talk to people you know in your home language, if you push yourself to use Japanese every day, you will see results!

The Kamakura trip allowed me a view of Japan outside of Tokyo in a less urban, more traditional setting. It also showed off a lot of the history of Japan.

Talking with my host family every evening I got the chance to practice what I’d learned in class over the previous few days. Not only would they correct me whenever I made a mistake, but I’d also learn a lot of new things from them, too.

Learning about Japanese history was the most valuable thing I learned. Having conversation and Japanese and English enabled me to understand things more.

Overall, I found the dorm to be in a very pleasant location not too far from the station and supermarket. It was also a short trip to school, which made getting home not a worry at all.

I went from being unable to speak Japanese to a native speaker without feeling embarrassed to being able to ask strangers for help, or restaurant workers for their recommendations.
