The focus on conversation was great for improving my speaking skills.

—Cooper

I’d say the textbooks were effective, both the ones made by KCP and Minna No Nihongo. They’re thorough and provide a lot of useful information. I use them a lot even when just searching for grammar points or vocabulary. I like the games we’d play in class, too, like role playing about going on trips or eating out at a restaurant and the problems that can or cannot happen. It’s fun and stimulating and gets you thinking on your feet in Japanese

Please come prepared to work hard. KCP is for serious students and those who come with the mindset of mostly play and little study will not thrive at KCP.

Start conversations with your non-American peers and do it often. You’ll find as you go along that you are speaking more and more Japanese and less English. It’s also fun to get to know the culture of your new friends!

The extracurricular activities allowed me to interact with others.

I enjoyed going to the singing club and the anime, comics, gaming club because it allowed me to interact with other students and the teachers outside of the classroom.
