Helpful and enjoyable!

I studied in Yamasa's SILAC program for two months and found it to be most helpful. The teachers were quite competent and consistently made the classes both informative and fun. The environment is low-pressure while also providing a great opportunity to improve one's grammar and speaking fluency. I have also studied in Yamasa's Academic Intensive Japanese Program (AIJP), which provides more focused attention on grammar and vocabulary acquisition. The instruction there has also been consistently clear and my facility in Japanese has steadily grown. Combining these elements of conversation and grammar, the SCSP is a great option for those who want to improve their Japanese ability in a fun and affirming environment. I highly recommend!
