Lots of flexibility for students

Friendly Staff
by: Nathan L.Program: CIEE Open Campus Block in Kyoto, JapanOverall, my program experience has been positive. I liked my instructors and the classes I took. However, I feel the course loads were a bit much for a six week program. Some administrative and organizational aspects I felt could be improved as well to make the student feel their needs are being met. On the other hand, all staff members of the program I participated in were friendly and great to talk to.
