What Teachers, Chaperones and Students Are Saying About NP:J Teachers and Chaperones... "Whoever chose the host families and schools did an amazing job. Every student had a wonderful experience!" "The information received was very thorough. Everything was spelled out very completely." "...I loved the study guide materials, especially the fact that this guide was recently written. The materials represented Japan as it is today, not the historical samurai Japan so often covered. The lesson on baseball was also very interesting I was impressed by the use of baseball as a tool for teaching cultural differences." "The best aspect of NP:J is the opportunity to individualize instruction and interaction with Japanese people." "It was great to make study plans on our own. It's a great experience to find something new and solve unexpected problems as a group."
