I found tests to be a good indicator of where I was at over homework. The homework only covered one topic usually, but tests would cover a wider variety of them mixed around. I’ve never studied Japanese from a textbook in this style, so the textbooks have been extremely helpful in visualizing Japanese grammar points.

I enjoyed being able to participate. I really liked it when my teacher told us to come up with our own examples to share. I thought that was very engaging and very fun.

I enjoyed the tea ceremony and learning the Japanese customs involved in this.

Hazel from Spring 2015

I found the textbooks most helpful plus the English support classes with Kato sensei, she was a great support. We didn’t do too many games but I do think they are a good idea to make learning more fun and enjoyable.

The readings once again were quite interesting and a good way to practice what we've learned.

Corey from Fall 2022

Though the pace was overwhelming at level 4, by Level 5 I was able to be used to the amount of Kanji learned daily, and the daily tests really helped with that and helped me understand which characters I needed to focus on for the larger weekly tests.
