Do you want to get serious about learning Japanese?

When I first came to Japan I could barely speak any Japanese at all. However after nearly 2 years in the KCP program I feel much more confident about my Japanese ability and feel that I have an excellent foundation to continue expanding as I continue my time in Japan.

KCP is a rigorous course, there is no denying that. However I get that that fact can be intimidating to some students who are looking for a study abroad program. My advice is to go with it. If you are serious about learning Japanese, I think KCP is the best place to start. If you are interested in Japanese but maybe not 100% sure you want to commit to learning the language, KCP is still a great place to start because it will give you an idea of what an immersive Japanese course is like. Even if you go for just one semester, you will walk away with a more natural grasp of Japanese and extremely useful first hand experience of using a second language to accomplish a variety of tasks both in class and outside of it. Additionally if you need support, the KCP staff is always there to help you out no matter what. I am incredibly grateful for my time at KCP and I wouldn't be anywhere near where I am on my journey to Japanese fluency without them. I highly recommend this program to all students interested in studying Japanese.
