That was the section of the program during which I experienced the most rapid improvement in my Japanese. I also enjoyed being in the regular class with non English-speaking students, which was a great opportunity to practice casual Japanese.

I thought the outings were rather interesting because they provided us with some outside-of-the-classroom experience to places I may have not gone otherwise.

I also had the pleasure of participating in doing the omikoshi as well. The Japanese Culture Trips were also a great experience. Being able to participate in activities and events exclusive to Japan’s culture was a worthwhile experience.

The school excursions were also very informative and fun.

It was also a unique opportunity to be able to perform in the graduation ceremony and experience it even if I wasn’t graduating.

It was very interesting to play Japanese style games and it was good opportunity to bond as a class, I felt.

Each teacher had their own character and input in how they came about explaining things, and it made each new day interesting and fun to experience

I really liked that way of teaching. Even though it requires a lot of studying I really enjoyed that aspect.

The literature club in particular significantly improved my reading and speaking ability. It also built confidence in my skills and encouraged me to take on bigger challenges.

You have to make an effort to study and do your homework to keep up, but it will be worth it and you won’t learn Japanese faster.
