Which is the best summer school?
 

Hello everyone,

I'd like to ask you to tell me what is the best summer language program in Japan?

I am a graduate student who's dissertation focuses on Japan. For this reason I've started studying Japanese language and would like to go to Japan this summer (for about 8 weeks). I'd like to enroll into a lower intermediate level summer course that:
- is not in any major city (Tokyo, Osaka, Kobe etc.) - I believe that a rural environment is more conducive to learning foreign languages
- has high teaching standards with well developed curriculum and small sized classes
- receives motivated students that come to Japan to learn rather than party
- has a good homestay program.

I'll appreciate any experience&knowledge that you can share with me. Thank you in advance,

ivo
