The most interesting aspect is the different ways in which the learning process takes place.

Néstor from Fall 2019

You will love Japan and it will be a hard goodbye once it ends, it happened to me. With that said, the hardest goodbye won’t be to the country, but to the people you will bond with. So make the best of it and cherish the moments.

Testimonials

If you’re considering KCP, just sign up. If you have to, save up for it. It was worth it. I continue to learn the language, I continue to make new friends, I continue to find new, unfamiliar and exciting places and all of this was possible because I made the decision to learn at KCP. I have met some really great people (friends as well as teachers) who have helped me grow as a person. I’m thankful for this time I’ve spent here. It really has gone by too fast but I will forever remember the memories I’ve made here.
