Homework was also very helpful as I was able to discover my weak spots.

Anna from 2013

I found pair work and small groups sessions to be most helpful as I was forced to actually speak in Japanese with others and to learn how to listen to and understand what they were saying.

Kevin from 2014

I was able to interact with students of different levels as well as learn about a part of Japan’s history. I hope that there are more trips like this in the future.

The best aspect I believe is learning from multiple teachers.

Each teacher spoke Japanese a little differently than the other. It was good to hear differences.

The program is very well organized and worth the investment.

Cristina from 2014

Club activities and extracurricular events (such as the Cooking class) were most fun for me, as they allowed a chance to practice and enforce concepts taught in class while still enjoying the activities.

There was just a ton of useful information to take in and absorb.

Benjamin from 2014

The senseis are all extremely helpful and willing to spend extra time speaking one on one with you if you need help or want some extra practice. The classes really challenge you to try your hardest, and if you work hard you will most definitely improve.

Testimonials

The textbooks and drill practice helped me study, the tests helped me figure out what I needed to study more. I often did small group study sessions outside of class as well, and those helped all involved, I believe.
