The calligraphy and tea ceremony activities were the most satisfying because I got experience different forms of Japanese culture.

I found drill practice and homework the most helpful.

The homestay gave me a lot of Japanese listening and speaking practice.

Any comments or tips for prospective/new KCP students?

KCP is an intensive program but it really improves your Japanese ability, so be sure to study and take advantage of the great teachers.

Testimonials

In general, I think the KCP program is really great and I’m very glad I decided to do it. It was a lot of work, but I learned a lot, met many interesting people from all over the world, and got to have a very different experience of Japan than the normal tourist.
