I selected this program because I saw a favorable review for it in my Japanese club’s newsletter, and I had been looking for a study abroad in Tokyo. I also liked how inexpensive the program was and how the offered dormitories, which few other programs did.

—Katie Penvose

かいわ practice was very helpful. Going over all the vocab and slowly building up conversation was very helpful. Having to write essays and and create your own conversation was also very useful. Also, focusing on the high and low pitches and intonation for words was extremely useful. I would honestly love to see more of it, even though I honestly disliked it since my American accent would mess up the pronunciation, I understood that it was very valuable in sounding fluent.

Each professor was more interesting than the last and gave an in-depth look at many of the multi-faceted aspects of Japnese culture. This is exactly the kind of thing students need.

Staying with a homestay family was the most interesting aspect of the program for me.

Jason from 2013

I got to see and live first hand with a Japanese family and also got to practice what I learned in class that day.
