The work load is very heavy but for my future goals it has suited my needs.

Moriah from Spring 2023

Which events or activities did you find the most satisfying and why?

Tokyo Disney Sea was more fun than I expected it to be ad a good learning experience; it was also a unique opportunity to be able to perform in the graduation ceremony and experience it even if I wasn’t graduating

What were the most productive and interesting aspects of the program for you? The least interesting and productive?

The work load is very heavy but for my future goals it has suited my needs. The end of term review courses are mostly helpful, though I think the last term’s reading section could have been a bit more in depth. However, overall the program is well structured and resources are there to help if needed

What activities or materials did you find most helpful (e.g., pair work, drill practice, tests, small group sessions, textbooks, games)?

Kanji textbooks, in class grammar/sentence making practice (both alone and with partners), applied practice

Any comments or tips for prospective/new KCP students?

KCP is a great school and you can learn a lot here if you put in the work. Expect to study a lot, and expect teachers to be strict when grading, especially in levels 1-4. There will be days when you don’t think you’re getting any better, but that’s usually because the classes are always going to be challenging. That’s a good thing.
