What Teachers, Chaperones and Students Are Saying About NP:J Students... "The best aspect of NP:J was having a new family across the Pacific Ocean." "The best aspect of the study tour was Kyoto. I really enjoyed seeing all the different temples and shrines. It helped me find out more about Japanese culture and helped me appreciate the Japanese [people] more." "It was a lot of fun to stay with a family. I really liked getting to know them and experiencing a Japanese lifestyle." "I enjoyed the places my [host] family took me because wherever we went we had fun, and that is what this trip is all about: to learn and have fun." "On the whole, this has been one of the most incredible experiences of my life." "Although the excitement of being in Japan for the first time can't be replicated, a second experience is still very enjoyable and helpful... I was able to study things in more depth, which was well worth it." Each of the above comments were provided by teachers and students on evaluation forms completed during the NP:J program.
