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.

Sharing the tea ceremony with so many internationally different people with Japanese as the one unifying factor was very nice.

The culture classes really taught me a lot of things I didn’t know and the excursions helped me better understand the concepts.

I feel all of the students had a chance to try hard, perform for each other and the Sensei, and bond. Also, the group sessions and activities offered to the summer short US students was a great help!

I was especially happy when they put in WiFi. The rooms are nice, the beds are comfy, and I have an air conditioner and small kitchen area. I haven’t had any problems so far.

The school field trip for summer short term students was extremely informative and fun. I also appreciated the many different outlets KCP was able to provide to its students to experience Japanese culture.

If you are in doubt, don’t be! KCP has far exceeded my expectations. Also, spend the little extra to be in a host family. I received so many more invaluable experiences and more chances to practice my Japanese than those in the dorms.

The faculty far exceeded my expectations with their warm hospitality and the room itself was superior to what I had expected. Also the view is wonderful.
